Welcome to eWillys.com, a website for vintage jeep enthusiasts. I update this website nearly every day with jeep deals, jeep history, interesting reader projects, jeep related info, and more.
These quick searches can help you find things on eBay. People list in the wrong categories all the time, so don't be surprised to see brochures in the parts area for example.
The links to posts below show jeeps grouped by models, condition, and other ways. Some of these jeeps are for sale and others have been sold. If you are unsure whether a vehicle is still for sale or not, email me at d [at] ewillys.com for more info.
There are plenty of interesting, unusual, historic and surprising stories related to Jeeps and their owners. In addition, some of these features have nothing to do with jeeps. This link will display all featured stories starting from the latest.
Looking for parts and not sure where to go? There are a variety of large and small new and used parts sellers both online and offline.
Importantly, the allure of buying a project jeep can be romantic. The reality of restoring a jeep can be quite different, expensive and overwhelming without the right tools and resources. So, tread carefully when purchasing a "project". If you have any concerns about buying a vintage jeep, or run across a scam, feel free to contact me for help, comments or concerns .

“This listing is for a 1949 C 3 WILLYS JEEP. Project willy jeep needs 4 cyl motor rebuilt. It is a great one of kind project. Its at the church off of 170 and 70 Give me a call for more info. I have the original title.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** This is a CJ-V35/U.
Not much value here.
“Unsure of exact year. Willys jeep project. No title.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6500
(06/01/2020) This is a custom build with a fiberglass body. I assume it is registered as a 1953 jeep, hence the year.
“Custom built Willys Jeep. Very fun to cruise, gets lots of attention! The perfect beer runner or pit cruiser. All tube chassis, fiberglass body. Ford 3.8 V6 with Ford auto trans, power steering. 2 wheel drive. New wheels, tires, seats, shocks, stereo, glass windshield, steering wheel, exhaust”
This has a 2A body, so the listed year of 1950 may be incorrect. It’s got a few other odd mods, too.

“I have a 1952 willys jeep I have a brand new crate body for it frame was sanded and re done I have two sets of fenders two windshield brackets original 3 speed original axels it’s pretty much all there just needs put together I have almost all the parts for it just don’t have time to finish it I’m moving and need to sell it”
Listed as a 1946 CJ-2A, this looks more like a CJ-3A to me. The 2A ignition switch hole is absent, there are no bow holders, the radiator and oil filter mount are not 2A, and it lacks the front frame horns.

“Beautiful black. Less than 2,000 mi. on rebuilt Chev. engine. Original trans. and running gear. After market Wheels and nearly new tires. New soft top … never installed since new paint.”
The seller is interested in trading for another jeep. He provides a list of jeeps at the bottom of the text. In his description, the seller doesn’t note that the body is a reproduction body.

“I’m listing my 1952 Willys CJ3A Jeep MAINLY for trade/possible sale consideration. The price is basically a “ballpark value” measuring tool. I’m just listing for trade vehicles I may want more than my Jeep, NOT because I need to sell or don’t like my Jeep. It is getting harder to drive as I’m getting older and would like a toy (JEEP ) that’s easier to drive (automatic, power steering, etc.) which will make sense if you read my trade list below.

I have another project and this one has to go.

Listed as a CJ-2A, it looks more like a CJ-3A. Oddly, this has a circular fuel inlet, but I can’t see anything else that makes me think this is some kind of 1) DJ body or 2) replacement body.
