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 .
Listed as a 1947, this may be a modified MB or GPW.

“Please read this detailed description before contacting me with questions. This a parts car or MAJOR project. This was my rock crawler up until last summer. It has a jeep CJ2A frame and body and Toyota drivetrain. 22R motor (cracked block at bellhousing connection). Five speed Toyota transmission (worked well when I parked it) and Toyota axles. Here is what is also included in addition to what’s in the pics:
Extra Toyota drivelines
Four extra, almost new, CJ2A leaf springs (two front two rear)
CJ2A Soft top
Original front seats
What is missing:
No front axle
No rear 3rd member
No transfer case
You must be able to tow it away with a flat trailer. For the right price, I’ll deliver with my trailer.
At this time I don’t want to last it out.
I just paid the non-op fee this year. It was registered until a few months ago”
Has a variety of mods.

“Stored indoors for most of its life this 74 year old Willys is in mostly original condition. Floors, body and frame are all solid. The original flathead 4 runs strong, does not burn any oil and does not overheat. Military style tires are in good condition and the 4 wheel drive works as it should. The winch is also functional. The Willys was repainted sometime in the 1960’s. As shown in the first picture a rollbar and vinyl top with doors will come with the Willys along with additional parts. This Willys was always a Civilian Jeep (CJ) and was never a military vehicle. It has been in many parades and is always a favorite.”
UPDATE: Still Available.

“I have been over this Jeep and fixed or replaced everything that was wrong with it. I rebuilt the motor starting with a brand new block and everything bolted to it is either new or restored. It was going to live at our family cabin and be used for fishing and canoeing but then Jeep came out with the Gladiator and I just don’t need two Jeeps.”
It doesn’t run, the body is rough, and it has no title.

“This is got to be one of the coolest thing I have ever owned! Here’s what I know…it came from a barn in Pennsylvania, it has the original motor, frame is SOLID, it is currently not running, and can sit in my garage because it’s that cool! The young man said it sat in the barn on his Grandpas Farm for years and that’s what he learned to drive!
I’m not interested in trades and does not have a title.”
