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 .

Seller believes this only has 8100 miles, but the front frame rails suggest if that is the case, they haven’t been light miles.

Could be worth a look. I don’t quite understand the description though.
“Motor and transmission jeep Willys working good 2 things i take out i have all the miselaneus any?”
It ran when parked 6 years ago.
“1942 Jeep Willys Cj2a. Mostly Original. Still has the original flathead 4 and drive train. It is still a 6 volt system. There have been some rust repairs on the body. It ran 6 years ago before it was parked in southern Arizona. Everything should be there to get it running again except the starter.
Please review the pictures as this jeep will need some work. The seats are rotten and will need to be replaced. It sat outside in southern Arizona for 6 years. I got this to work on it over the winter but time and money never appeared so it is time to reduce the number of projects I have. ”

Needs engine rebuilt. Does not include winch.
“I am selling my Willy’s. Was going to be a project Jeep but have no time to rebuild engine. It has a clean body with seats and diamond plate in the tub.
Previous owner was the one that restored it and had a full underbody coating sprayed on. I have the title, plates and current tags. Everything is up to date with the DMV.
The previous owner blew out the bottom end. Currently has a Chevy 350 in it with rams horn headers. Buy a crate engine and drop it in and drive off! It has a rebuilt radiator, relocated gas tank and high performance heads. New battery (bought last year) and comes with towbar and rear bumper. Also has the overdrive for the transmission.
Winch not included. Asking $4,000 OBO. Come take a look and make me an offer! Text or call me!”
Not sure how much value is here.
“I bought this with the intention of restoring and just don’t have the time. It’s the first year of the high hood flat fender CJ3B. It has no paperwork and does not currently run so is being for restore or parts. It’s pretty rough but would make a great father & son project in the right hands. The Dana axles are intact as well as the t90 trans&Spicer 18 transfer case. It has a tow bar on the front and does roll for easy transport. Please feel free to email and questions. Thank you! $900 or best offer! If the ad is up, it’s still available.”

Thanks to Chris for spotting these hard-to-find jeep labeled ice scrapers for me. The one in the middle will be saved for Rusty. These are more advertising items than practical scrapers, as they aren’t very big. Above them is a 3×5 postcard for comparison.
On another note, Chris also found a set of these. On what were they installed?
Great early bond campaign photo.
“1942 Press Photo Jeeps here for Jeep Day War Board Campaign. This is an original press photo. Jeeps here for Jeep Day War Board CampaignPhoto measures 9 x 7.25inches. Photo is dated 06-22-1942.”

UPDATE: This may have sold. Was on eBay for $20,000.
Craig forwarded this eBay listing for a rare Palomino Mower. It’s listed at $20,000. For that price you can get a restored CJ-2A and a set of mowers to pull behind it.
“This is the very rare mini Jeep “Roof Palomino” made in the Roof factory in Pontiac, Illinois. There were only about 200 of these mini Jeeps made in the 60’s. These were very expensive, costing around $1,700.00 when new, about the same as a new Chevrolet. Therefore, not many of these were sold, as only the wealthy could afford one.
This Palomino is in excellent original condition. It runs really well. It cuts a 5 foot swath with no problems. This could also be used as a golf cart, since the mower deck removes easily. This is a lot of fun to use since it creates so much attention when you are driving around your yard, either cutting grass or golf carting. According to your local ordinances, this could be driven down the street in your community.
It has a hydra static drive, so it is easy to use. This works really good, except the headlights and horn are not working. I never needed them, so I never bothered to have them fixed. There is no rust damage, and it has never been repaired for rust. I have owned this for about 20 years. It has a new 12 volt battery, and it starts right up. It has a large Kohler 2 cylinder engine, with more than enough power to cut tall grass. It is capable of speeds over 25 mph. How cool is that????
This type of vehicle does not require a title or registration. The purchaser will not have to be in a rush to pick it up since I will keep it safe in my garage until arrangements can be made. Look at photos closely and ask any and all questions you may have.”
