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 .
An ad for a 1946 CJ-2A referenced the following article from the July issue of Automobile Magazine. I expect this will fill a variety of CJ-2A sellers with visions of value where there might not be any. They assign a value of $12,500 to $20,000 for a restored CJ-2A and $12,000 to $18,000 for a restored CJ-3A. What they neglect to mention is how difficult it is to find a properly restored 2A or 3A.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $9500.
(07/24/2012) “1949 Willys Jeep that had a frame off restoration 6 years ago. Driven around 3000 miles since restoration. 28984 miles on odometer. The tub and tailgate and hood are replacement. Body is rust free and nearly perfect. Garaged everyday since restoration. All original save for the body, wheels and two inch lift springs and shocks. I have the original springs to put it back to original stance and painted steel wheels that match the jeep w/ excellent tires although they are not the military all terrain tires that the jeep was originally issued. It is converted to 12 volt and there is a list of new parts too numerous to mention. Starts every time and runs like a dream. The wheels and tires alone are worth $1200.00 and have less than 1500 miles on them
This has the rear texas hunting seat mod.
