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: **SOLD** Was $450.
Original paint and pin stripes?

“This is a collection of N.O.S. Willys body parts gathered over a 30 year period. It has a full set of floor pans, all four quarters including attached wheel housings in rear. It has a new toolbox with lid, and the rear floor pan has the cross member factory attached. I am also including in the sale, a donor Jeep with a straight clean frame and most parts needed to build a show quality restoration. The Jeep can be seen by appointment 10 miles east of Hershey, PA. Please email me if interested and thanks for looking.”

“1948 CJ2a Jeep. 3 speed trans, 4 cycle original motor. Good condition mechanically, needs body TLC. no major rust. I have army green spec paint 1 gal for it. Have done much work on it. New battery, oil filter assembly, radiator, gas tank sending unit, thermostat, ignition switch, temp gauge, fuel pump(w/glass dome), water pump. Jeep has 11 dumps instead of 9 inch, better stopping ability, brakes were recently done. New spec steering wheel. No emergency brake though. I have a roll bar for it and the original radiator (no leaks) and parts. Seats are not original but are comfortable. It seems the transmission may have be rebuilt as well as the motor. No smoking on the motor and the trans is solid. I need the room so the jeep has to go.”

(11/14/2019) It looks in nice shape. Not a perfect restoration, but a good refurb. It looks like the front frame horns weren’t replaced as part of the restoration.
