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 .
A lot has been done. A little more is needed.

UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was $5900.
Includes an overdrive. No description provided.
Seller has a running CJ-2A (listed as a 1949), a CJ-3a with seized engine, and a 2A tub. Sounds like a good amount of stuff for the money.
“I am selling A good running 1949 CJ2A. I bought this as a fun summer toy to fix up and drive. Unfortunately I no longer have the time to finish the project. I got the little Willy’s running and driving well. Started in on the body work, and that is where it stopped.
What you will get with the 1949.
A second CJ2A tub. It is a little rough, but there is a lot of good metal.
A complete 1949 CJ3A. Very similar. It has the correct factory option for the under dash heater. Also it has a complete running gear (But the motor is seized)
A pair of factory seats (Needs to be recovered) but has the correct springs still in place.
A spare master cylinder New
New Parking Brake shoes
assorted gaskets
Complete set of soft top bows with door frames
It has installed a complete new exhaust, new aluminum radiator (the old one was rotted out), new fuel pump, new windshield, and a lot of little items.
I hate to see it go, but I would rather see it go to someone that has time to finish it in the near future.”
