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. This section used to be split into jeeps, parts and other categories, but recent changes to eBay will require this information to be recoded.
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 $1400. Has a Kelly hardtop.
(04/27/2011) This looks pretty stock. Though, there looks like there might have been some body work along the passenger side.
“1948 willys cj2a w plow runs good drives good 4×4 all works. Trade for fishing boat or make offer”

(04/03/2011) No pics provided. It sounds like a bit of a project.

UPDATE: Was $500. **SOLD**
(05/15/2011) For $500 this might be a good price. I love the “JEEP” marking.
“Own a piece of history! This jeep would make a wonderful project for the guy or gal that likes to restore vehicles. The jeep comes with its original hard top. It has been a long time since anyone tried to start it, and the seats have since been removed. Everything else appears to be there.”
Sebastian wrote me yesterday, telling me he and some buddies made a special trip to visit the Willys Spring 2011 Reunion.
He writes, “Yesterday I went to the Midwest willys reunion in Mason OH. Altough we did not take our jeeps, some members of the Flat Fender Club of Butler went there to see some nice willys. It was a busy day, about 4 hours each way (from Pittsburgh). A very long day as you can imagine, totally worth it as shown in the pictures: http://flatfenderclubofbutler.wordpress.com/ (top post). I thought you may want to take a look.”
Here’s a couple of his images. See all of them at the link above.
A reader and his son have been restoring a CJ-2A and have mocked up their own .30 cal gun. They shared the below pic with me. Thanks!
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
It runs and drives. It likely has the wrong engine, but looks like a good price.
“1942 Willys MB Military Jeep. F 134 engine, T-84 transmission, Dana 23-2 rear differential, Dana 25 front differential. Engine runs, brakes in working order, lights and wipers in working order. transmission needs rebuilt. New seats front and rear, new military gas tank, new shocks and good tires.”
UPDATE: Was $6500. **SOLD**
This looks like a solid price.
“1951 Willy Jeepster. $6500. “Lil Red” original condition, very good shape. Only serious offers please.”
This appears pretty solid, though the windshield is funky. There is no description. Auction will be held on June 11th at 8am?

UPDATE: Status Unknown**
These are the Formula Desert Dog Xtra tires. Very rare. I think they are historically cool, but it doesn’t look like there’s all that much tread. See an ad for the tires at the bottom of this link.
“J78-15
8″ rims and 9″ tread
5 hole wheels
a little weather cracked but still ok tread
$60 for all 4 of them or just $15 each
came off a 1953 Willys truck.”
