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 .
Here’s a potential buyer for a tub.
“I am looking for a descent shape tub and fenders that are compatible with a 48 cj2a. I would take one of lesser condition that I can cut up and use to patch my current tub or one that is in better shape than my current tub. Would like the fenders to be in good shape. Email me with pictures of what you have and price.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000
It needs work.
“I have a 1947 willys cj2a all original f134 flat head 4 cylinder converted to 12 volt and has an electronic distributor

Original Post: Terry’s brother works at the United Maintenance Base for United Airlines in San Francisco. His brother said this was a CJ-2A that still roams the airport. Terry himself owns a former CJ-3B Belt Loader that still has the United Airlines Hobbs Meter on the Dash.
There just can’t be many of these around.

This is the first I’ve heard of this magazine. It’s called SAGA: Adventure Stories for young Men. One of the articles in the magazine is about the Jeep.

Every thing for the most part is new and also has a Family Roll gage Roll bar. Tires are 31/15s on Centerlines(9INCH). The reason for the Sale is I have two many cars sitting in my Driveway and the Wifey Poo is getting a bit mad, so to protect my Old butt I need to reduce my Toys.

This looks pretty good for the price.
