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 .
The jeep looks to be in good shape. This deal includes an unusual rack.

This appears to have an overdrive, but it has a short shifter some reason.

This is the original color? Maybe the camera color altered the look?
“Awesome antique 1947 Willy’s CJ-2A Jeep in good condition. (Civilian version of the MB military Jeep). Runs well. Mostly original parts. New seats, fuel pump, filter, plugs, battery and electric coil. Fuel system just flushed. Decent rubber though some cracks in treads. Brought up to running condition and repainted original color a few years ago by a mechanic (not a full restoration, just up to speed). Lots of fun. People love it, especially kids! Great parade or summer around town vehicle. NADA guides range from $4900-$21,000 depending on condition. Retired appraiser valued this vehicle between $8-9,000 (just looking it over and seeing it run). Asking $8000. Serious inquiries only: 715-529-7683.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5000

This runs and drives, but has back fees.
“Okay, I have received 100 texts and calls about this. Let me clarify and try to answer all of the questions.
1) It is a clean title in my name.
2) It is not currently registered and has back fees. I WILL PAY THEM before selling.
3) The engine is from an F-head and not the original L-head. I will include an extra parts engine which is the original L-head style.
4) It runs, drives, shifts and idles as it should.
5) It has a new stainless fuel tank.
6) The brakes need adjusting (If you want to stop)
7) E brake is functional.
8) Four wheel drive works
9) High and Low 4X4 work”
This has potential.
“This is a original unmolested 1948 willys jeep. The only thing that has been changed are the wheels and tires upgraded to 12 volt, and upgraded valve tapets to run off regular pump gas.”
