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 is a project or parts jeep.
“Willis Jeep 1948 Flat Fender. This Jeep was bought as a project vehicle. But things have changed & I don’t have time for it. My loss your gain. The vehicle has a clear TN title. The body is rough. The motor is free. This would a good restoration project as it is pretty much complete with a title. 4 x $ with lock out hubs.”
Needs work.
“1948 Willys CJ2A Jeep. Firewall plate intact Serial Number CJ2A 187943. All original matching numbers engine, body, tailgate. Ran last time it was used in 2007. Stored since then. Transferable Registration. $6000 in parts already installed or ready to go. Tub is rough, but mechanically Jeep is sound. Hand Brake even works, but rest of brake system needs rebuild. This Jeep can be parted out for significantly more than this price. This is a restoration in progress. Not ready to drive home, but a gem to those that want to own a true classic and are willing to complete the needed work. Or, take Jeep and the parts home, part it out, and make some money.
Call Craig @ 845-266-3139. Leave message if no answer and I’ll get back to you quickly.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $950.
I don’t think this looks all that bad. I’ve seen worse rust.
“1948 WILLYS JEEP CJ2A NEEDS RESTORED.

By ‘cherry’, does the seller mean the color is cherry?

(11/21/2010) “This is a great jeep, it does need some restoration work. Would be a great project for the gear head in your family. It is set at a low price, which is negotiable. It has been in the family since 1960. Has the rollbar (not original) and winch original. The pictures do not do it justice it is old but beautiful if you are an old car buff. We need to sell due to losing our home and would prefer not to take it with us. We have the title and the first one with cash will walk away with a piece of history. I have included some information from a site about the jeep. If you have questions, want more pics or would like more information please dont hesitate to contact me..”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5000
