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 .
This has a PTO, but can’t tell if it is a rear or forward.

(10/21/2012) I have only posted a pic of the nicest jeep. The vin number listed doesn’t match a 1946 CJ-2A.
“what we have here are 3 1946 cj-2a,s. The red one is the old i found it in a barn story. this came from a garage in butler pa (home of the jeep). it had sat since 1963 on a dirt floor and had sunk into the frame rails. i got this jeep in about 1993 from a friend of the family. at the time i got it the buyer from the bantam motor car museum was after it, but had so insulted my friend that they were not going to get it for love or money. it has been in her family since it was brand new. all original documentation has been lost. when i got it, i did a complete frame off restoration. every nut, bolt gear and bearing was renewed or replaced. when i built the engine, it was bored, new freeze plugs, decked, head surfaced, etc. i built it to exactly factory specs. same with the axles, transmission, transfer case etc. nothing was spared in doing this right. the body is not perfect, but is very solid. my skills are mechanical, not body work. since restoration, this jeep has less than 1000 miles on it. it comes with a canvas top that need restitching, and the front bow need some attention. doors go with it and a spare set of door frames. all original air cleaner parts are included, as well as skid plates etc. this jeep while not exactly perfect, is in ecellent shape, and very complete.
the other two are invarious stages of reconstruction. the blue one is about 90% complete. the tan one started out as a column shift jeep (no i dont have the parts) and is about 50% complete. The blue one and the red one have clear pa titles in hand. the other one is applied for and should be here by shipping time, but there is no guarantee on that.
none of this will be parted out, it is one lot only. one complete and driveable, and two more to make one or two more from.”
