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 as a 1948 Willys CJ2A with a ‘53 F-head engine. I runs well, starts rite up, idles well, drives, 4 wheels and stops. Fuel system has been redone. Engine is smooth. Clutch and brakes are a bit stiff but work well. Newly painted, body is in good shape. Some rust still underneath and in toolbox area. Flame is good. Wind shield is rough, but functional. It is not restored but rescued. It still tells it’s story. It is a blast and very capable off road. I was planning on taking it on the Rubicon, but will not be able to do it this year so I am moving it on. It has soft doors and a bikini top.”

“This jeep has a 1975 odd-fire 3.8L (231 ci) v6 with Offenhauser 360 aluminum manifold and Holley 4bbl carb. Also has automatic trans, warn overdrive, 4.88 axle ratios, 11″ brakes all around (just converted to silicone brake fluid so new wheel, master cylinder and soft hoses!), dual fuel tanks, full roll cage and a back seat (needs to be reupholstered). Have soft top with all hardware, but needs new top. Also needs paint and new tires (lots of tread but very old).”
Looks like a classic 1980s build with the diamond plate, V8, warn winch, and bumper mod. More pics of this would be great.

“I hav a complete Willys CJ2A Jeep that is all original. Body is pretty much shot. The motor ran when it was parked two years ago. Also have a rolling chassis with a New Jersey title. This would be a great start to a build because the frame is in good condition for its age. ”
