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 .
The body has had some work.

(09/20/2020) May still need some body work.
“Collectors item. CJ2A. Jeep Willys 1948 Runs and drives good. New brakes, generator, rebuilt carb, exhaust system and gas tank. Has tow bar. Comes with gas and water cans, axe, and military shovel. Seats recovered. Needs someone with enough time to complete restoration”
I *think* this is an MB/GPW chassis with a VEC CJ-2A body.

In 1948, the Massachusetts National Guard used two jeeps adorned with giant red feathers to aid community communications as part of a community Red Feather Campaign. This news was reported in the November 06, 1949, issue of the Boston Globe. Unfortunately, I could not track down a color image of this jeep.
Photo #7 from the July 1945 Willys-Overland press kit shows a PTO powered mobile wood saw.
Jerry shared this article about New Comer Racing’s attempt to add some power to the Jeeps’ 4.0L inline six workhorse. The result is a 861HP thoroughbred. Now, how long such an engine could bear that HP is less clear.
