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 on eBay

“Good start for jeep project. All original except is 12volt now. Motor runs, but needs rebuilt. Very little rust. I am interested in trading for running 1981-1985 Toyota 4×4, or Samurai, or VW bug. I like the old jeep, but need something that is reliable for my kid. I am not interested in any other vehicles unless they are compareable to what I have stated”
This might not be a bad price.
“needs battery. Had it running 2007 and found it needs brakes also. Willing to trade for quad or small travel trailer.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $15,000.
As close to original as possible? Hmmm ..

This one could use some work.

There’s been some body work if this is truly a CJ-2A body. There was no description of any significance. You can view more pics and contact information here.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.
“Excellent example of a 1946 Jeep Willys. It has been converted to a 12 volt system. Body is in good condition, runs and drives good. Interior is in good condition. It has only been driven a few miles as an occasional Sunday drive. The jeep used to have the red carpet in the back, I took it off, and the floor is amazingly solid. This rare CJ2A is currently registered and driven, also comes with custom tow bar.”
