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 is a beautiful build.

Rob’s selling his CJ-6 project.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/916475346911216
“This is a project truck. Motor turns freely by hand. Unknown deficiencies or prowess. Needs some assembly. Mostly complete, but lots of mysteries remain.
Hasn’t been started in at least 6 years.
Mostly complete. Many unknowns.
Rust through driver and passenger floors (has cut sheet metal panels to cover it). . Was last driven by a rancher in eastern Montana before he passed away. I have been doing stabilization work to slow the decay. When the rancher got sick the Jeep was parked and the tank rusted through and drained. I have purchased a new tank, but haven’t gotten the sending unit yet. Need new fuel lines and surely a carb clean.
The body appears in pretty good shape.

“Jeep is in need of a restoration. Engine is not running. Vehicle has been stored inside for the last 60 years. Steel top with side and rear doors. Tow bar available but not attached to vehicle. Originally used as a tug to move a DC-3 into its hanger. Later used for forestry work.”
Bill shared this auction or a militarized CJ-2A. The body has some mods/repairs.
https://barnfinds.com/bf-auction-1948-willys-cj-2a/
“A previous owner wished to pay a fitting tribute to his uncle, choosing to convert this 1948 Willys CJ-2A into a military-style vehicle for parades and displays. It served nobly in that role and has done so intermittently since the current owner purchased it in 2016. However, all good things must end. The owner no longer has the time required to devote to this classic which has seen little recent use. Therefore, he has listed the Willys exclusively with us as a Barn Finds Auction.”
