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 received the following hilarious email announcing this jeep was on eBay:
Hi there,
My husband’s cruel, unreasonable wife is forcing him to sell one of his three Jeeps. This is a 1946 CJ 2A listed on eBay. Located in Calera, AL.
Best regards,
Amy Beth (cruel and unreasonable, but I sure can cook!)
“Not running as is – new battery needed. I have too many jeeps need to get rid of some. We are reducing our motorpool and this is the first to go. We have had a lot of fun in this, but it has not been abused, nor left out in the rain to rust. Has been stored outside in a shed. I can email more photos. Driver side mirror not included (goes to my GPW and is not included in this sale. GPW is also for sale but is being restored.) T84 transmission, M38 windshield, but I have original. Front-mounted hand winch works. New gas tank.
NO TITLE”
No pics provided.
“Jeep is in parts. Frame has been restored. Engine/trans/transfer case are sitting on a moving dolly. Wheels are painted harvest tan with new non directional tires. Body is there but needs major work (the tub is a frankenstein of two jeeps). Extra parts come with the jeep include extra engine block, generator, springs (I think to a cj5), new gas tank, and new brake lines. Needs someone to finish the restoration. Bill of sale only. Will part the wheels if desired. I’m looking to move this so feel free to send any offers.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $3200
