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 .
It’s a project.
“Hunter’s, Outdoorsmen & Offroader’s U need too see this classic. Will need work but if your good with tools this is your all terrain vehicle.”

(005/30/2014) The seller is right. It’s a bit of a Frankenstein.
“Frankenstein meet your dream car. This is licenced and titled as a 1947 Jeep willies. It is the original tub, grille, and thats about it. The rest of it is a early 90’s S10 with a 4.3l. I’m selling this for my mom who went through a mid life crisis and bought this and sunk alot of money into it, and now is needing to get out of it. I have all of her papers for this thing. it has a 4.3l engine that just blew a head gasket on memorial day (IT STILL RUNS AND DRIVES THOUGH). It does have a bikini top but if the offer is low enough she is gong to take it off and sell it. “
No updates other than these pics from Charles for Sunday (We should still be camping).
Here are a few photos of the Belgian Army:

And some other photos:
Elle Decor Magazine, to which I’m sure most of you subscribe, featured Ralph Lauren and his “#1 obsession” a “1951 Willys Jeep”. The ad appeared on page 98. I hate to quibble with a fashionista magazine like Elle, but I’m pretty sure that man is sporting a CJ-2A and not a 1951 jeep of any kind. (See link here http://www.elledecor.com/celebrity-style/shortlist/ralph-lauren?click=main_sr#slide-1 the ’51 comment is mentioned on slide 2)
UPDATE: Was $5500. **Status Unknown** Dan noted: Large rear Window, Dash, V Grill makes it a 1954 or newer. 6 cylinder would of caused fireboard to be cutup
Looks like a solid truck.
