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 .
Look solid. Appears to have a custom top.

“We received the vehicle in poor condition from a family member. We performed a body-off restoration to bring the car to its former glory. Converted it from a 6 volt to a 12 volt and threw on some bigger tires for safety concerns. Everything else is kept to original specs. Project began 10 years ago and finished around 6 years ago. She starts up every time and hasn’t had any major issues. We also have a backseat/bench that is not included in the pictures, it matches the front seats. The handbrake is NOT installed and we do not plan on doing so”
UPDATE: Still Available.

“Fully rebuilt 1947 Jeep Cj2a. 134L flat head motor, starts and cranks up without flaw every time. Rebuilt transmission and four wheel drive. The entire body , inside and outside has been bed lined with legit Rhino lining. After market front bumper with winch mount spot and rear bumper with flag spot and tow hooks. After market more comfortable suspension seats with seat belts. Push button removable steering wheel to make getting in and out easier.
Fresh brakes and drums on all four tires. Brand new tires and rims from 2017 Jeep Rubicon. Custom made roll cage. Aftermarket full tank mounted in the bed to increase the fuel range. Legit title with registration. Would make a great jeep to ride around town on a sunny day or something that would be fun to take to the farm for the weekend. Price is negotiable, would also be interested in trading for 2000s model jeep.”
