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: This has been painted and is undergoing some work.
(12/18/2017) Bill shared this one. It needs work. Interesting winch in back.

Before changes:
This may have some Allstate hubs.
“This specific cj2a has had only two owners, runs, drives, and stops great. The highly sought after “Go Devil” engine runs very strong on first turn. The 3 speed manual transmission functions as it should, smooth, and with no hesitation. 4wd functions in high and low, and the frame has no rot and very little rust. This willys was garage kept and never saw snow, or salt as it resided in St. Petersburg Florida with its original owner since initial purchase. The body, floor, rockers, and frame are 100 % rot free with very minimal rust. All parts are original excluding the tail lights and spare tire. All electronics(lights, gauges,ECT.) function properly and tires have good tread and no leaks. Jeep has been well maintained and is ready to hit the road or trails with all needed paperwork. Priced to sell fast, a great ride in rare condition and a real head turner. Feel free to call or text anytime. I have email but will respond faster on my phone. Price is negotiable, open to trades for classic vehicles and jeeps only. No top included”

Works for parades. A few years ago a buyer could get a nice MB or GPW for this price.
“This ARMY JEEP runs and drives. It is equipped for use, as if it was on active duty.”

Has a Sears Deluxe Top (that might be warped). Listed as a ’54’ it looks like a CJ-2A that probably has an f-head. No description provided.

It doesn’t run.
“FOR SALE – 1948 cj2a Willys jeep — amateur restoration in 2009— It does not run — the compression in the cyclinders is very low. So it will need some work.”

It’s name appears to be the “Taurus Turtle”. Look like an older build.
