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 .

(04/25/2013) This looks good, but I can’t if it is a 1948 CJ-2A or a 1949 CJ-3A. I’m guessing 3A.

Ryan forwarded this. It’s not perfect, but there appears to be value here. The body has some crinkles.
“All body and interior parts of Willys 1947 CJ2A, including tub, tailgate, fenders, hood, grill, instruments, and seat frames.
All in fair original shape, with some rust that will need patching in floor, and threshold area (see pictures. Fenders, hood, and grill solid, but normal dings and dents. Never bondo-ed, never patched.
All parts sold together until 6/7/13, when I will part out separately if not sold as package.”
