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: Price dropped to $3800.

(10/07/2015) Seller doesn’t indicate what else needs to be finished on this project.
“Selling my 1948 Willys CJ-2A, I almost done with this project, purchased another motor for the vehicle because of a stress crack, therefore; re-did the crank with new bearings, new pistons with rings, new clutch with throughout bearing, waiting for a gasket for the rear end, had a minor drip, removed the gas tank and had it pickled, too many things I did to get it looking good, a little over 22,000 miles. Get a early jump on this vehicle, before she goes. I will NOT accept a text, either call me or email me regarding questions. No low ballers, I don’t need the money, it was a project I like doing, so don’t bother looking for the deal of the year.”

“This GPW was purchased in a fundraiser auction in Creston, MT in 2006. It was a mismatched pile of rusty parts, winning bid; $400. When my Dad saw that the delivery date of this GPW was Monday, May 4th 1942 and his delivery date (birthday) was May, 25th 1942, he had to have it. After some repairs and a quick camouflage paint job, the Jeep was back on the road for the first time since 1976. He drove it in parades and be-bopped around town, using it to raise awareness of MIA/POWs around the world.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $900.
