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: **SOLD** Was $8500.
(10/26/2012) This appears to be a CJ-2A frame/running gear with a replacement body (M-38 style) and windshield.
“For sale: 1948 M38 Willys. Currently registered and inspected last month. Excellent running condition, previous owner was a mechanic. New brakes and master cylinder. This is a rare jeep, first come first serve! Email with questions.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay
(08/18/2012) The movie Tugger, the Jeep 4×4 Who Wanted to Fly is based on the book by the same name.
“This is a CJ2A that was used as a Movie Promotional Mascott. The Movie “TUGGER, THE JEEP 4X4 WHO WANTED TO FLY” was released in 2005. I bought this CJ2A from the man that owned the Rights to Movie and the Promotional Items. It is titled and runs great. It has been entered in Car Shows and has won Trophies and “Best of Show”. The paint Scheme is of the Air Force Thunderbirds. It has the Insignia of the Thunderbirds and was rebuilt along with the engine by the Sponsers; The Air Force, Jeep, Shell Oil, Orlando Genesis and Arnald Palmer Hospital for Children and Women. KIDS LOVE IT! Many comments at traffic lights. Beautiful eye catcher! It can be used for Memorial Day, 4th of July, Parades and Funerals (or just plain enjoyable driving). Not many miles since rebuild according to the tires. I fly the American Flag and Air Force Flag on special occasions.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1350
(09/17/2012) This post is all about the top. It’s certainly one of a kind.

It runs.
“1948 Jeep WillysHas top, Good tires, Runs good and in good shape.”
A parts jeep, yes. A great parts jeep? Not so sure.
“great parts jeep or base to restore. mostly complete. has cj2a grill, radiator. 603-352-4204 603-313-7042”

This has something installed on the front bumper, but I can’t see much due to the small pics.
“47 Willys CJ3. slightly later 4 cyl engine (OVH) /winch; good seats, heater, tool box, windshield wiper (for 1) has a little box like a pickup. serviceable paint – all one color no major dents. Runs fine ready to go. This thing climbs trees and wades streams but it willl not run highway speeds. It has hauled out moose, elk, and deer. Excellent tires back window panel rolls up and ties so you can shoot from 3 sides. Decent seats. (recovered – ok job). curved steel roof. Professionally built.”

There looks like value here. Unclear if it runs.
“Willys Jeep 90 percent restored must go due to medical bills. Additional motor and trans conveys with sale.”
The drain holes are blocked, suggesting some body work has been done. The bumper area has been modified as well.
“1946 Willys Jeep. Runs great. Perfect for going to the deer camp. Has tailgate. Call (906)440-0015”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4450.
(10/12/2012) This looks good, except for the area near the passenger side fender. It may just be an optical illusion, but it looks kind of odd.
“Sold my storage building…no place to keep it. 1948 (it’s actually a 1947) Willys Jeep. Five new tires. Engine completely overhauled. Runs great! Converted to 12V. email for details and to set up appointment to see it. May consider trades for antique things that go bang. The color of the first two pictures is correct…the third picture is in direct sunlight.”
