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 .

“I have a 1946 willys army jeep its an all steel body in excellent condition for its age would be the perfect mud truck or rock crawler, for the most part its all there and just needs to be put together a great winter project. I have a propane powered 4.3l Chevy vortech motor with all the advance adapters parts needed to mount a willys transmission, also I have headers an edlebrock intake and a pulling cam incase you want to put a carb on the motor. I have a willys trans and transfer case out of a newer willys wagon. It has jeep yj springs and is sprung over scout Dana 44 axles with 4.10 and warn manual locking hubs. The right side knuckle is machined down for cross over steering and cost several hundred alone. Has pedals and power brake booster from a yj and a gm power steering box. It has 35 inch tires in the pics just to give you an idea how tall it is I also have another set of tires and wheels you can have. I have a very rare willys jeep pickup cap and doors that also go with the jeep, I also have two brand new best top seats the windshield and all the lights gauges and covers. If you have any questions please let me know I have way to many projects and have to let some go. I have a lot invested into this thing and I’m a little flexable on the price but please no low ballers. I know there is more I’m missing but whatever I have is all yours. I will consider trades for a bobber, a chopper, or a vw golf mk4 I dont mind doing work on them or cash up/down. Thank you for looking.”
Not sure there is much value here.

I ran across Milk River’s website, located in Alberta, Canada. To help support the Milk River Fire Department, they have printed t-shirts with an illustration of the department’s 1947 CJ-2A Fire Jeep. You can email them here for more information: http://milkriver.ca/government/town-departments/emergency-services/47-willys-t-shirts-for-sale/sendto_form
Here’s a picture of their Fire Jeep:
Bruce wanted to share some before and after pictures of a trailer he saved. As you can see, the before picture shows a pretty tired trailer. However, after six weeks of work by Bruce, the trailer looks like a great match for his flattie. Thanks for sharing Bruce.
Bruce wrote, “I purchased this trailer locally (7/2/12) for $600, more than i wanted to spend. however, it was simple to transport so i bought it anyway. they are hard to find.
Every nut, bolt and screw was removed, and all 20 leaves from the springs. All of the u-bolts and one shackle were replaced. All rust was removed. The floor had a few rust holes on the side that i duct taped over and then rhino guarded (black spray) the interior. I picked up a 3×6 rubber floor mat from u-line that fits nicely inside.
The trailer had home made fenders that were welded on. Once i removed them, gaping holes were left. I found new fenders at ‘tractor supply’.

Did you know that both Sears and Montgomery Ward companies both sold replacement parts for jeeps and scouts? See the next post for the Sears version of this catalog.
