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 .

Scott spotted this ad. Anyone near Cleveland want to contact them or let the local MVPA know?
“I am looking to rent a WW2 Ford Army Jeep. My father in law drove this jeep in the Korean war. His birthday is July 7th and I would like to surprise him with a jeep ride. If I can not find a Ford jeep I am sure a Willys Jeep would do the job also. Please contact me if you know of anyone that owns or has access to this kind of Jeep. I am not sure that he would be comfortable driving your vehicle. I am sure that he would appreciate a ride if you are not comfortable with others driving your jeep.

UPDATE: Was on eBay. Status Unknown.
“1961 Willys Jeep DJ3A Surrey Gala

Fuel tank has been cleaned and coated.
3 speed column shift transmission in good working order.
This Gala is fun to drive!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
Here’s another refurbished jeep from Brigantine Beach. In regards to the seller’s answer to a buyer’s questions (see the ebay ad), while true the U.S. Air Force wasn’t formed until 1947, prior to that it was either the Army Air Corps (AAC) or the US Army Air Forces (USAAF). This jeep isn’t about accuracy. It’s about having some fun.
Then I got to thinking. As a point of discussion, is it a misuse of government intellectual property to paint on and resale something with USAF like this? I’m not that concerned about it, but I was just wondering if it’s technically legal. I might have to research that.
“U.S. AIR FORCE MILITARY STYLE JEEP

It’s rough, but it does include a Navy tag. The tag looks like it could be original to the jeep.
“This Auction is For a 1951 Willys CJ-5 Jeep. It is complete with a 4 cyl. and a manual transmission. It is a 4X4 and also has a PTO or extra gear box and shifter. This Jeep is a great project and ran when parked, it has been sitting for a a couple years now so may take a little work to get it going again. There are not many of these old jeeps left now days. This one has some rust but nothing that cant be fixed. It still has the Info Plate on the dash showing it was registered to the US Navy in California. The Jeep has a hood scoop or breather on the top of the hood and I believe it is for a snorkel, which was used for driving off road in wet areas or crossing rivers, ect… The jeep looks rough in the pictures but will clean up nice. I will take some better pics of it and add them to the auction in the next day or two. The Jeep has a clear title and to my knowledge has never been wrecked at all. High bidder is to pay the shipping costs, but I will assist with setting up shipping or may even be able to transport the vehicle (we have several tow trucks and trailers) for costs, depending on the timing. I reserve the right to end this auction early if and acceptable offer is given as it is for sale locally also. It wont last long so if you want it now is the time. If you have any questions or picture requests you can email them to me and I will respond.”

This looks solid.
“1946 Jeep CJ2A Willys Flat Fender
Rebuilt and on the road for about 8 years. Stored and housed in my garage. Rebuild records will go with the Jeep. Currently registered inspected and insured. Extensive rebuild includes a pro engine rebuild with harden valves for unleaded gas. Breaks do need work. Speedometer is not working. Great fun to be had in this classic Jeep. Call for details.
No shipping, Cash only transaction. Must come to look at it to purchase. May be able to do a short mileage delivery.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5500.
This build looks clean, but having the speakers mounted like they are means you’ll have to cover them whenever jeeping. Maybe that part is removable? The hood scoop is unusually shaped.
