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 $3800.

(06/24/2014) The flattie runs, but the CJ-5 does not.
“ have two Jeep Willy’s
No titles for either one.
One is missing part of the body but runs and drives (1951 M38).
Second Willy (1955 CJ-5) did run when parked about 10 years ago. Engine is free not frozen and has full body.
I was going to restore both but no longer have the time and wish to sell them.
I am told that the running Willy is a 1951 M38. The engine has been rebuilt runs good. Brakes all restored and is drivable.
Asking $3500 for both.
Serious buyers only please,”
Tim Ghianni published a story about Emmett Automotive of Nashville that included a couple photos of the owner’s CJ-2A. He routinely has it parked where people can check it out.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.
Sounds like it needs work.
“Bought this with plans for full restoration, but just don’t have time to finish it. Body metal and frame are in very good shape. Also have metal side panels and roof in fair condition and three original rims. Was running great when I stored it. Full restoration would be one way to go or just take her out to camp and use it on the trails. Lots of info on these on the net.”
UPDATE: Was $2700 **SOLD**
(07/29/2015) It needs work of some kind.
“Project Jeep, kind of losing interest in it a bit because I’d rather have more of a hot rod classic car or truck. Would prefer to trade, interested in any offers but mostly looking at Chevy/GM cars or trucks, rat rod, classic station wagons, lowered, lifted, you name it. No Hondas or tuners or anything like that. Would also be very interested in a K5 Blazer. Prefer to trade straight across.
The Jeep has solid bones to start as a restoration or wheeling project. Already lifted on Rancho springs. Has a fuel cell mounted in the back, Buick 225 oddfire engine runs, needs a head gasket and carb, was told it’s a Muncie transmission, 4 speed, transfer case with Hi and Low. Replaced starter, new plugs, plug wires, cap, rotor, brand new PerTronix electronic ignition. Offenhauser intake manifold. I’ll be steadily working on this thing still so it will just be getting better and better. Clean title as well.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1650.
(07/12/2015) Appears to have potential.
