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 $3950.
“You are looking at a 1946 Jeep Willys. It runs and drives good and come with the following. 31x 10.5 tires. roll bar. Reciever Hitch. 4 cylinder flat head engine. Floors and Body are in good condition.”

Warren alerted me to a whole pile of war time Jeep images at the Australian War Memorial Online. I thought the Mobile Cinema Unit was an unusual group, so here are some images. Click on the images for additional information from Australia. (See some jeeps on their side, here)
“BRISBANE, QLD. 1943-09. JEEPS OF THE 84TH MOBILE CINEMA UNIT AND THE 85TH MOBILE CINEMA UNIT OF THE AUSTRALIAN ARMY AMENITIES SERVICE AT THE LAND HEADQUARTERS WHICH IS SITUATED IN THE UNIVERSITY OF BRISBANE AT ST. LUCIA. THIS PHOTOGRAPH SHOWS THE PROJECTOR, PROJECTOR TABLE AND SOUND EQUIPMENT OF THE 84TH MOBILE CINEMA UNIT STACKED BESIDE THE UNIT JEEP WHILE THE JEEP OF THE 85TH MOBILE CINEMA UNIT IS SHOWN FULLY LOADED.”
Check out this photo from the Australian War Memorial!
“Richmond, NSW. 1945-07-28. Flight Officer Joyce Cain (right, at wheel of jeep) and Corporal Gloria Freeman (left, in jeep) on duty with the Landing Control Officer (right) at No. 1 Parachute Training Unit, RAAF Station Richmond. During their descent, parachutists receive instructions from the Landing Control Officer through a loud speakers system mounted on the jeep.”
This appears in good shape with a few updates. This jeep is listed as a 1948 CJ-2A.
