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 .
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $450.
Here’s another Boston Top for sale.
“Up for sale is my aluminum Cj2a full hard top. It is called by the manufacturer “the Boston Top “. No cracks in glass but a few scratches. Comes with the doors which need new plexi glass sliding windows. I started stripping it but I’m going canvas top. Spot light on top works. Rear door lifts. Needs some work.”
Poor thing.

It has a factory aftermarket overdrive installed and it runs and drives is really good and it has complete the new brake system installed and rebuilt carburetor and new distributor cap and points.

It doesn’t run.
“it’s a 1949 cj-3a, motor ran fine before it sat for 3 years. I have kept the hood on and the intake has been covered up the whole time. It has had some starter and brake line work done (brakes are not working).
I recently put on new plugs and changed the oil, but haven’t had time to do much of anything else, that is why I’m selling it.
Overall it is in pretty good shape, definitely would make a solid platform to restore from. Gas tank is ok, as are the seat frames.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $700

Steve spotted this great find.
“This is an old crazy buzz saw that came to me with a 1946 Willys cj2a. The saw looks to be in good shape and turns freely. The drum that used to drive it has been removed and a double V belt pulley installed. I don’t know for sure if this is and original farm implement from the 40’s or even 50’s but it’s really cool! Feel free to ask any questions that you may have.”

“This was my dads. He ordered it in 1965 in Phoenix. I have every paper since that day. I inherited it 19 years ago and have done my best to enjoy it and keep it as amazingly original as it has always been. It has 34K original miles, it has never had a tow hitch on it. He mostly pulled it behind his truck for hunting. I transport it on a trailer. 4 years ago I was afraid it might start to rust (I moved to Montana) so I painted it with concept paint in the original paint code (Indian ceramic). I haven’t hooked everything up since painting (like the wipers and heater, and) but I have EVERY PART.”
