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 $5000.
This needs some turn signals/running lights in the front. Otherwise, this looks nice.

“1946 Willys Jeep CJ2A (the first Jeep CJ). This jeep has a CLEAR TITLE. Needs restored or just fix mechanicals and drive it. The original 4 cyl. Willys engine runs EXCELLENT. All the electrical works including the turn signals. Needs brakes and new tires if you want to drive it. It runs great and will move around. 3 speed on the floor shifts good and clutch is good. These CJ2A’s are worth $20,000 restored (look it up on nada.com). A really neat jeep project for all the wrangler fans. Call before 10 pm 317-eight 6 2-9 5 3 9.”

I look at this jeep and only one thought comes to mind: Banana.
“1948 Willys – I bought this vehicle with my son in 97 as a restoration project and its taken several years and a bunch of money to complete. We have both moved on to different projects and just don’t need it anymore. It was taken down to the frame and completely restored from there up. Sandblasted and painted, motor, transmission, transfer case, carburetor, radiator and differentials professionally rebuilt. New lift springs, shocks and exhaust system. The only real problem is that the tub was not repairable and we had to buy a aftermarket tub to complete the project. The motor, front grill, windshield, frame and all the drive train are original. It has 432 miles on the rebuilt motor and runs like new. As far as the 4 wheel drive this thing will go anywhere you have the guts to take it. I hate to see it go but hope the new buyer enjoys it as much as we have. Good Luck Bidding!”
