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 $9800
It’s not WWII, but it appears in very good shape. It’s listed as a ’49, but is at least 1950.
“A military icon of the 19th century, this W.W. II Style jeep manufactured by Willy’s is rare and sought after by collectors and rein-actors alike. Runs good, 5 new tires, M.P. police lights work, starter is weak.”
UPDATE: Was $1800 **SOLD**
(02/04/2012) If this has a flathead, I wonder why the hood is popped. The extender seems awkwardly long, but maybe it is just late.

UPDATE: Price dropped to $3000
(05/15/2009) I haven’t seen many racing jeeps for sale outside of the west coast.

I want to thank Sebastian for the wonderful poncho he brought me from Colombia! Now that I have the proper clothes, I think I’m ready for a visit! Oh wait. I need to sell some more books before I can go . . .
Colin was searching the web and accidentally ran across this jeep.
He writes, “While browsing the web . . . I found this photo, which is obviously misnamed. The caption says it is a 1948 VJ2 Jeepster(NOT!), but it is what I think is a factory photo of a prototype DJ3A with the low windshield, convertible top and a 48-49 Jeepster T-Bar on the grille.”
Note both the T-Bar grille and the way the top connects the windshield. Anyone seen other pics of this?
Mark just posted this at Sellajeep.com.
“My father-in-law passed, and my mother-in-law now has a 1948 Willy’s Jeep for sale (and some extra parts). Price is negotiable but she would like about $10,000 for it. The Jeep is currently sitting in her garage in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. It’s a beautiful vehicle, but unfortunately we don’t have the mechanical skills to work on it.
What I know about the Jeep: it is a 1948 Willy’s Jeep, with new yellow paint. The car (to me) seems to be in great shape. It needs some engine work, which I think has to do more with it having sat in the garage for an extended period of time (probably at least 6 months since it was last turned on). It is located in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. My mother in law also mentioned that they have some extra parts:Tailgate, Will hub, Axle and a Windshield Frame. I have no idea if that is the correct spelling or even names of the parts Karen Watkins (580) 917-2851”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1200. This has a Worman Jee Cab on it.
This won’t last long. It runs and drives.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4000
The grille suggests an earlier vintage jeep, but maybe the grilles were switched. Looks good though.
“Jeep Willy’s 1949 CJ2A 60,000 miles, 4×4 works. asking $4000.”
