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.
(10/09/2016) Listed as a 1953, it looks like a CJ-2A.

You can read about the last auction of this jeep in 2010 at the CJ-3B site.
Here’s the original Christie’s listing.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8500.
(08/06/2016) Has lots of updates.
“1947 Willys Jeep
This is the one, the body is so clean you’ll be shocked, rust free and solid as it gets! Tons of new parts and done right, only (reluctantly) selling because I have a baby on the way…
Chevy small block 350
Muncie 4 speed trans w/ rare Warn Overdrive — Highway speeds no problem!
Twin Stick D-18 transfer case
Holley off road carb, Edelbrock valve covers, March pulley belt system
Power steering, w new lines and steering box
Autometer guages
Beard seats up front and a beard rear bench (not currently mounted)

One of the cleanest flatty’s I’ve seen, no butchering or dopey changes. Must see in person, don’t wait or it will be gone. No rust, the diamond plate is not there to hide anything!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $12,500.
It’s listed as a 1945, but I don’t see anything VEC about this.

Hard to see much. Something is hanging of the driver’s side where the rear bow holder should be. I don’t see the data plate on the dash.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000.
This has full floating rear hubs, square bolt heads on the windshield, and other characteristics of a ’45 VEC. That front bumper mod sure is curious.
“1946 cj2a column shift with tool indents on driver side. Has f head that is stuck. Trans and transfer case move. Has rust in normal cj2a spots. Rolls good tires hold air. No hood. Good for parts jeep or off road project. Possible trade/part trade for 220 mig welder, hot rod stuff, pre 60s gas pumps, porcilian sighns ext. no title no vin tags. Sold with bill of sale only.”
This was a column shift (now floor shift) with the square bolt heads on the windshield. The rims look early as well. It could be worth a look.
“It runs”
