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 $3000.

“1947 Willys Jeep CJ2A
This Willys is setting on an original L134 drive train. It has been lifted and has P225/75R-15 tires in good condition (no spare). The Jeep runs and moves down the road, even the brakes work, but it still has repair issues. This is a project Jeep. It would make an excellent addition to a hunting lease or ranch/farm.
The body is in servicable condition. The front fenders and body have some rust-through but are still solid. It has been chopped up a bit by previous owners. It’s a Colorado Jeep so rust is minimal.
The engine runs strong with no smoking. It has a new 12V starter, new fuel pump, new fuel filter and new Solex carburetor. The distributor has been replaced recently by a previous owner. The drive train has also been worked on recently, the transmission and transfer case and drive shafts appear rebuilt, and a heavy duty shackle lift has been installed. Lock-out hubs are installed but are mismatched.
Electrical system is serviceable. All gauges appeared to work except the temperature. The speedometer is not hooked up.
The tow bar is substantial and has a built-in storage box between the frame rails. There’s also twin 2-liter jerry cans that mount on the tow bar.
The soft top is in good condition. There is a full-cage roll bar installed.
Repair issues:
1. The ignition key is lost. A replacement ignition is included.
2. The fuel tank needs to be flushed or replaced. Which requires removing the seats, which is…
3. Someone installed over-stuffed sedan seats and a small diameter steering wheel. The problem is the home-built seat frames have been welded to the body. You have to chop out the drivers seat in order to get the fuel tank out. It needs different seating anyway.
4. Needs choke and throttle cables installed (included).
5. Ross steering box needs to be rebuilt or replaced. Which means getting the steering wheel off. I was afraid to look at that. The Willys steers okay for off-road use, it just won’t last too long. I will even throw in a used replacement.
6. Front shocks need to be installed (included).
7. Skid plate is missing.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $850.

Mark has posted this over at jeeptruck.com.
“I’m in need of some help with a Jeep Truck my Grandpa left me. He has had this truck in his garage for 40 plus years and it was left to me when he passed away. I don’t know much about it other than I would like to sell it to someone who would appreciate it.
The truck does not have the original motor. It is a Ford 289 engine with a manual transmission.
The body is very nice and rust free. It has glass in the windows but it is very hazy. It has door panels and seats.
Please note there is no title for this Jeep Truck. $2500

I’ve seen worse. It doesn’t run at the moment.
“About 95% original/complete. Has original L6-226 flathead engine, 3-speed trans with hi/lo transfer case, 4×4, locking front hubs, 12 volt electrics, and tow bar. 2-door body with tailgate, original seats, original heater, and aftermarket AM/FM/cassette. I bought it about 16 years ago planning to restore it, but too many other projects. This one needs to go to someone with more time and skills.
The engine ran when I got it, but smoked a lot and lacked power; needs a rebuild/replacement. It hasn’t been run in a long time, but is not siezed (can be turned by hand).The body had been repainted and looked great when I bought it, but the paint covered a lot of hidden rust and Bondo that are now showing (arrows in photos, apparently it spent a lot of time around salt water.) The frame appears sound, the windows not cracked or broken but some are starting to haze.
This has possibilities – restore it as a classic (the very first of the SUVs), build it into a custom 4×4, or use it for parts. (The parts value is more than my asking price, so it is FIRM.)”
I suspect this project will need more than wiring, brakes and seats.
“Inline 6 fuel injection. 4 speed. Toyota land cruiser axles. 35 12.50 wheels. Jeep yj dash. Aluminum hard top doors and roll bars. Soft top. 3 extra tires. Mechanically sound only needs brakes some wiring and seats. Lots of extras. 2500 obo. Call 614-312-3536”
