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: Still Available.
This was priced much higher, but it is now what appears to be a good price.

Here’s a nice looking CJ-2A that is at $11,000 with only 3+ hours to go. Thanks to Blaine for spotting it.

“This 1946 Willys CJ-2A is finished in green over tan cloth upholstery and is powered by a 134ci inline-four mated to a three-speed manual transmission and a two-speed transfer case. Additional equipment includes yellow-painted 16” steel wheels, a full-size spare, a fold-down windshield, a single-barrel carburetor, a rear bench seat, and front lap belts. The truck was repainted under previous ownership and was acquired by the selling dealer in March 2023. This Willys is now offered in Florida at no reserve with Georgia registration.”

“1951 Willys CJ3A Jeep. Runs great.
Comes with older black soft top (I never bothered to install it).
Also comes with new canvas soft top and new seat covers (never got around to installing).

“Sierra Classics Imports is proud to present this exceptionally mean 1942 Willys. The off-road machine is finished in a nice red paint with chrome diamond plating covering much of the car. The 283 cubic inch motor came from a 1961 Corvette and sounds loud and mean with the power to back it up. The 283 is linked up with a 4 speed manual transmission with Worn overdrive. The car has 11 inch drum brakes all the way around stopping 10×15 inch wheels and 33 inch tires. The Willys also has tilt steering as well as a full top a new radiator and a new water pump. This is an excellent Willys and would be a hard charging fun toy for anyone who wants to go off road with some oomf. Give us a call if you have any questions!”

“This 1952 Willys M38A1 is finished in drab green with US Army-style graphics over khaki canvas upholstery and is powered by a 134ci inline-four mated to a three-speed manual transmission and a dual-range transfer case. Features include a beige canvas soft top, 15″ steel wheels, a Jerry can mount, a water fording system, and a 24-volt electrical system. The truck is said to have been refurbished under prior ownership and was acquired by the seller in early 2022. Subsequent work reportedly involved rebuilding the carburetor, flushing the fuel system, and installing a deep water valve system in addition to replacing the voltage regulator, ignition wires, springs, and front tie rods. This M38A1 is offered with miscellaneous manuals, a storage bag, partial service records, and a clean Arizona title in the seller’s name.”

(02/24/2023) Lots to like here. The master cylinder may need a rebuild.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1148754286006793
“New carb ,coil,electric box,starter needs I think master cylinder”
This old school build looks in great shape. No year listed in the ad. It has one of the more unusual roll bar designs, as it appears the roller is bolted to the sides of the body.

“All rebuilt – upholstery, paint & garaged for 25 years. Great condition! 48,000 miles Installed new carburetor and seat belts.”
Given the Hemet Jeep Club stickers on the sides, this was likely a California jeep at some point.

(03/09/2023) I think the seller’s reference to “Rare 2 gear transfer case” is actually the Warn OD.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/579446177391101
“1946 Willy’s CJ2A – Fully restored nut to bolt restoration; any panels that needed to be replaced were swapped from a donor car of same year & model – 100 miles since rebuild the rest of the time it’s been stored in a climate controlled storage facility (Facebook won’t let you list anything with under 300 miles hence the discrepancy above) – Rare 2 gear transfer case – Comes with poles for canvas top but not with canvas Price – $16,500”

Mike spotted this estate-sale Jeepster Convertible. This looks like a great one for the price. If I weren’t buying a different jeep at the end of Feb (yep, we head out on Feb 27th), I’d consider this one as I’ve though a Jeepster Convertible would be a neat vehicle for around these parts.
