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 .

This doesn’t run. It’s priced a bit high for a non-runner.
“Willys Jeep with the flathead in it, have all the parts to fix it up but don’t have the time or money~
It was my first car, and the starter blew once my dad pulled up to our house in it. I am not sure what people would want to hear about it so e-mail me with questions please.. She is a-bit of a project but nothing more than a weekend or two of work just to get it running. She’d be a great car once running. I just need a different car for college and such. I would keep her if I could. Please contact me as soon as possible if you want to come to look!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3000.

(12/19/2011) This was a column shift, but now a floor shift. I can’t tell if this has the free floating hubs or not.
“Lost storage. The tub is restored but paint is peeling on back floor. Have CJ2A engine that has been pulled but needs a rebuild. No cracks in engine. Frame blasted and painted w/ new wiring harness. Needs completion. I have a NY title in my name. I’ve moved to VA and am selling house in NY. Can’t bring everything. The tub alone is worth the price. I have more pictures.

(11/062011) This appears solid.
“1946 Willys Overland CJ2.
Runs good.
Motor is a 1950’s Willy F-Head.
This is a Hunter’s jeep.”
Steve dropped me a note and shared some pictures of his jeeps. Both the flattie and the CJ-7 look great! If you need any help driving them, just let me know 🙂
He writes, “The blue one is a 1978 CJ7 and the Willys is a 1948 CJ2A. I’ve had the CJ7 for 27 years and got the Willys from my dad last year. The Willys has been in the family for 50 years, most of it spent with my late Grandfather in California. When I got the Willys from my dad, it was in rough shape, and I spent about a year fixing it up. I really enjoy driving both, and the Willys gets a lot of attention.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
This looks great, though to be period correct in needs a few changes.
“Frame off restoration with EVERY part rebuilt or replaced to period correct condition. New seats and seat frames, new gas tank, new tires, new brakes, new gauges, etc. Transmission, engine, differentials, gear boxes, wheel knuckles, everything…rebuilt with original parts. This vehicle does have the original PTO unit on the back. It’s a pretty cool and unusual feature. No rust, powder coat desert tan paint. Powder coat was done by a professional hot rod shop. Runs Great! Great FUN!!! I have a shop full of automotive projects and it’s time to move on to the next one.”
