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 .
The Depew-Lancaster Bee featured a story about Retired Lt. Erin Myers restoring a 1946 CJ-2AS.

Lacks some steps and has probably had some body work. Includes a rear PTO.

“1946 Willy’s CJ2A in very good condition, runs perfectly, always starts, has farm pro on the rear, black soft top, all numbers match, transmition stays in gear, original style tires in great shape, title and owners manual come with it.”
I’m guessing this was priced based on NADA. Still, it appears to be in good condition. Note the pipe along the passenger side fender. Any thoughts on why that is there? It does not appear to be related to the heater.

Body looks in very good shape based on the pics.

“1948 willys. Great shape, newer top turn signals lots of fun”
This appears to have a VEC CJ-2A body, but it is listed as a 1949. It also has an early grille and it’s a column shift.
