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 $3500.
This has some mods.
“1948 Willy’s jeep has a Studebaker 170 hp flathead six and a Warn overdrive with a Saginaw steering box.
Runs, drives and stops. Original gas tank under the seat was rusted out has a 15 gallon aluminum tank in bed extender.
Clean title in my name.
Maybe trade for a good running 4wheeler 550 or bigger or an old ironhead or whatever.”
This has some mods and a little damage.

I haven’t seen many turbine rims on jeeps lately. This is an ex-racing jeep. The seller has included a lengthy list of features. This jeep really deserves some more pics. It sounds interesting.

“Posting this in behalf of a friend. Her grandfather passed recently and she is helping her grandmother sell his 1948 CJ2A Willy’s. I don’t have a lot of information on it, but he built this from the ground up and raced it throughout the years in Baja and other desert races. It’s currently located in Placerville and they’re asking $18,000”
Blaine spotted this jeep up for auction. Bidding is at $2500. Listed as a 1950, it looks more like a CJ-2A to me.
