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 .
Seller will sell without the winch for less.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
Engine needs work.
“I bought this nice little Willys CJ2A a couple years ago from somebody near Kalispell. The story I got when I bought it was that it had been parked in enclosed storage since about 2002 without being run. It had a hard top on it from new (which I have since sold to a guy in Holland) and so had very little rust. I bought it and went up and got it, nicer than I expected except the guy said it didn’t run very well, popped back through the carb. I knew it needed some engine work when I bought it so it wasn’t a big surprise. I brought it home, threw a battery in it and it started right up but popped through the carb. I figured it had a stuck intake, which is pretty typical of these little flatheads. I pulled the plugs and tried to free it up with a brass punch but while I could get it to go down, I couldn’t get it to where it would go down just on the power of the valve spring. I ordered a set of all 8 valves, new guides and a gasket set, took it to a guy to put a set of valves and guides in; he called me a few days later and said he wasn’t going to be able to finish as he just got in a big job to do. I went and picked it up and it has been sitting in my storage ever since.

UPDATE: Still Available. Has buy-now price of $5495. Pics are from a Craigslist ad. The new eBay ad does not show passenger side photos, so I can’t tell if the tub is still attached.
(06/29/2016) I wonder if this has the Pontiac 195 in it. Not an easy engine to find. Has a fiberglass body.
“CJ-2 Willys Jeep , 4-Wheel Drive, Fiberglass body, converted to 12 volts, new rear mounted gas tank, 1963 Pontiac Tempest engine, new bikini top, running boards, new upholstery front seats, turn signals, color red. $5,500 or best offer.”

I’m not sure why the seller is selling the truck bed with the jeep?
“I have a 1946 willys it’s in restorable shape but it is rusty it comes with a truck bed to cut up and weld in or you can buy a whole body kit for these things off amazon it is mostly complete even comes with two good radiators it’s missing shocks oil filter canister and air filter canister I have removed engine and freed it up its ready to be put back together or use the willys for parts has newer wheels on it and I do have an original set if interested let me know may also trade on 4×4 fourwheelers or a motorcycle similar to a Honda shadow even with boot if need be”

Since I’ve had it I’ve put a couple thousand miles on it and replaced the master cylinder for the clutch and brakes. I’ve driven it on the freeway and while the odometer is obviously off, my buddy said we were doing 80-85. I actually think it does better on the freeway.
I’m going to list issue first –
UPDATE: Price dropped to $3000.
(06/15/2016) Seller indicates there is some rust.
“Barn Find Jeep. Some rust in pan. Had Brakes and tires done by Nelson Tire in Hood river. Front brakes still sticking. Smokes when started but runs well after warm-up. Coil keeps burning out..”
