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 .
Looks in good shape.

(08/15/2018) “1948 Willy’s jeep , new tub , very good frame , 31inch tires and new rims , 4×4 , 4cylinder, runs well ”
Looks like a complete body kit (seller doesn’t mention the hood, but it is there in two pics, so it may be included).

“Brand new reproduction body. Bought new for a project and decided to go another direction with our build. Includes new tub, windshield frame, grille shell, two new front fenders, spare tire mount and rear bumperetts. Cost us 3500 a few years ago asking 3000 but will entertain reasonable offers.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $400.
As the seller notes, it’s rough.
“Body tub off of a 1948 Willys CJ2A Jeep. This particular Jeep was a “lefty” which was only made for a short time. The spare tire is on the drivers side and the top bow holders are on the passenger side. However that is the only difference and this body will fit any year CJ2A. It is in rough shape but a good starting point if you don’t have one or if you are looking to customize one. Pictures reflect condition. Asking $400 obo. Would also consider trading for other early Jeep parts.”
Body has had some body work on the passenger side. Unclear how much value is here.

“This Jeep is not running, started 6 months ago. It is mainly for a hobbyist who wants to restore it.
Parts are available, there are no back taxes or payments due. I have the original owners manual and parts book.”
Going forward, at least for the time being, comments made by readers who have not already had a comment approved, will require my approval to publish a comment. (basically, new posters will need their first comment approved). I’m hoping this reduces spam comments.
We made it home at 5pm on Monday. There were frequent stops, as Ms. Page came equipped with a ‘starter’ bladder, which is pretty small. However, to her credit, she never peed in the jeep. So, kudos to her.
On our drive through Montana we saw several feral jeeps along the highway in varying conditions. I also ran across a mid 1950s wagon in downtown Bozeman, kitty corner from the https://www.facebook.com/LaPaBozeman/ (which was very good). However, we were in a rush and the weather was snowy and cold through much of Montana, so I did not get any pics of them.
Everything should be back to normal Wednesday morning.
