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 .

It looks like the tank has been moved to the rear.
“For sale is my 1948 Willys CJ2a – $4,000.00. Great little jeep for driving around town and catching everyones eye or driving back in the woods to get your deer.
The Good:
It has all the original running gear (all the gears R, 1-3, low/high, 4×2 and 4×4 work)
The body has been redone to remove all the rust and replaced with new metal.
It has about 30K miles on it and runs great.
Stops well with solid brake system (original drum brakes so doesn’t stop on a dime like modern cars, can send a link for a conversion if you like, but they work fine)
Paint is Jeep Rescue Green (the green that Jeep is currently using on their new Wranglers)
Clean and Clear title in hand!
What needs to be done:
Exhaust, no muffler on it right now. I can send you a link where you can buy a complete (from header to tailpipe) orignial exhuast for 180 bucks.
Fan belt squeeks (old dried out fan belt may be replaced just depends on if it sells before i can get to the store and get a new one)
For less than the price of a 4 wheeler you can do all the same great stuff and drive it on the road with some style. Serious Inquirys only please 704-880-5939, love to talk about the jeep but can’t do it with everyone.”
