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.
It runs,
“1948 WILLYS JEEP, THE ORIGINAL ATV. 4X4, 3SPD HI/LO TRANS, 4 CYL MOTOR, RUNS GREAT, BODY IS ROUGH. GREAT FOR RANCH OR HUNTING VEHICLE, can almost climb a wall. MAY consider partial trade for stock trailer, horses, saddles.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $600.
It’s not perfect, but maybe someone can use this.
“1947 Willys CJ2A body tub, front fenders, hood and grille for sale. All has ratty-looking flaking white/blue paint, bondo, old fiberglass, surface rust, etc. but has been repaired structurally to be usable, or suitable for more restoration.
Tub floor and hat channels have been replaced but the lower sides need attention unless you want to go the Rat Jeep route. Front fenders are a little rough, but repaired and usable until you find better ones. Hood has had a hole repaired and is also usable. Grille is in good condition, but headlight buckets are missing. Will throw in remains of a later tailgate to complete the ratty set. All pieces but tailgate have matching “patina” as noted.
Asking $600 for the lot, mainly because of the hours in the tub floor. Have a couple equally ratty matching windshield frames for extra $.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(10/20/2017) It’s a project.
“1946 Willy’s Jeep, jeep belonged to my wife’s Grandfather. Tore it down to do a frame up rebuild, just don’t have the time.

It has been sandblasted, added new front and rear bumper, front and rear shackle brackets, welded cracks, added new modified left engine mount to match CJ2A engine mount, new engine/transmission mount kit and newer transmission cross member. Brand new suspension includes front and rear springs, frame bump stops, shocks, U-bolts, greaseable shackles and hardware. New tires on original rims, spare rim and original spare tire mount. Front axle model 25, rear axle model 41 (both have been sandblasted), front knuckle’s and all brakes F&R have been removed. Engine is not original (4 cyl from early 60’s with overhead valves). Two transmissions/transfer cases. All original gages, body parts, seat frames, gas tank, tailgate (stamped Willy’s), and grill with original headlamps.
