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 $8500.
Looks like the gas tank has been moved to the rear with the inlet behind the back tire.
“47 cj2a from Az., no rust, recently painted Matt white no dents or scratches. 4 cylinder flat head, 4 speed T90, hi low 4 wheel drive. Tow bar, roll bar, bikini top. Runs , shifts and drives great. Good brakes and tires. Not a speed demon but can climb like a mountain goat. Always garaged have all receipts from previous owner.”
This is listed as a 1946, so it might be a 2A chassis with a 3A body and hood. The grille is unusual.

It’s listed at $4, but not sure if that’s $4k or more. May be more of a make offer. Pics make it difficult to tell how much value is here.

“Willys CJ2A Parts Jeep only, complete drive-train. No paper work, I acquired as a parts Jeep with a CJ2A I purchased.”
This rare head is currently available on eBay. It’s priced at $5000. Neat part, but I don’t see it selling at that price any time soon.

“Up for sale is an ultra rare Kaiser/Willys Edmunds aluminum finned cylinder head for the 226 engine. You may not see another one of these, there aren’t many around. There also weren’t many performance parts produced for the 226 engine. I can’t say this is an NOS part, but it is very clean and appears to be unused. Being sold as is, but is in incredibly nice condition for its age.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(09/13/2019) Needs some work.

Maury spotted a collection of brochures and parts booklets on eBay that I was lucky enough to win. One of the brochures describes the portable, gasoline-powered Model 800G Warn Winch. On the other side of the brochure is an Electric Marine Model 400E Winch. A post from 2017 about the 800G includes pics of it.
The Model 800G Gasoline Warn winch:
According to Warn Industries, the Model 800G ad below is from 1969.
Between February 1970 and April 1970, Warn also included the winch in a Four Wheeler inner-cover, full-page advertisement. Given the importance of the company’s hubs and vehicle winches to Warn’s profit margins, I’m surprised the company included the 800G in this full color ad. Perhaps management had high hopes for the product? Whatever the hopes, I can find no evidence that Warn advertised the 800G ever again after April 1970.
Real-world example from the Warn website, There are also pics on Warn’s Facebook Fan page.
The Warn Marine Model 400E Electric Winch:
This brochure appears on the back of the 800G brochure. I could find no other information about it online.
