About eWillys
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.
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 .

“Open the garage and cruise the backroads! Be the only one on the block to to own an early CJ, this is the same thing your grandpa rode in. New tires, year old paint, new alternator, starts and runs great, 65 years old but looks great and works good, Climb a hill better than most newer vehicles or ride in a parade! Lots of time and money has been invested.”

“Very solid classically modified Willys CJ-2A, loaded with after market accessories.
I have owned this jeep for several years and lightly used it around my property. I picked it up in Salt Lake City from the son of the man who had owned it most of it’s life. He had used it for hunting and just tooling around in his retirement, in Arizona. He had purchased the Jeep from a family friend where it started it’s life, in Wyoming. Due to the Jeep’s life in dry climates, it remains very solid.
The Jeep was classically modified many years ago to give it more power. As was common in the 50’s, it had it’s motor replaced with a Studebaker Champion 6 Cyl for a boost in power. That engine remains and is a strong and solid runner. It does seem to need some carburetor work right now. It starts well and runs well but is a bit finicky getting the revs up. Once there, it cruises well. The only other real issue with the Jeep is the radiator has a few small leaks and has to be watched.
The Jeep is a classic example of a Jeep modified to meet the owner’s quirks through the addition of some Willys options and aftermarket accessories.
-It has two heaters in it (one for each side)
-It has mounting hardware for a soft top
-It had a special spare carrier mounted on the tailgate (removed and still have)
-It has a 6/12 volt radio
-It has an ash tray mounted in the dash
-It has turn signals
-It has heavy duty home made bumpers
-It had a folding game reck welded to the rear bumper (removed and still have)
-It had a gun rack mounted between the seats (removed and still have)
-It has a brake booster
-It has 16″ wheels (15″ was standard)
-It has lockout front hubs
-It has a welded rear end to give true 4wd capability
-It has a removable tow bar for 2″ hitch
-The coolest and rarest feature on the Jeep is a PTO driven winch, which works great and is very handy
The Jeep is very solid and with someone who can address the carburetor issue, will be a good strong vehicle for years to come.”
