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: Still Available. It’s listed as a 1948, but as Joe points out, it looks more like a 3A.
Looks rough.

“Wanting to trade my Jeep for a side by side or four wheeler”
Aside from the windshield, this jeep looks more 3A than 2A to me. Also, again aside from the windshield, I don’t see any rust through on this jeep…. just horrible paint and surface rust with pitting. It’s too bad they welded on that structure on the back of the body. Last Comment… It looks like they took great care to protect the tail light so may have a nice original tail light.
Joe, I agree. I see no bumper gussets and no bow holders. I’ll update it. Thanks!
The 1948 2A as opposed to 3A is something that keeps popping up in Willys Jeep history. My dad bought what was NEW JERSEY titled as a 1950 CJ3A. While it was at Mide Motors Jeep dealership, The salesman, “Fat Pete” (Lentils Pete) told my dad it was actually a 1948 model. At that time in 1962, found that hard to believe. I now know, this was common practice, but it seemed to be especially common in the 1948-1950 model years, that’s the part that still lacks a sensible explanation. Inquiring minds want to know.
