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 .
Lots of mods.

(12/21/2017) Appears to have an f-head.

“This Willys Jeep is an 1948 CJ2a. The “a” stands for agriculture, it was post-war Jeep’s first model made for the civilian market.
It has a mid-mount PTO, and the original flathead engine was replaced by the next series, the Hurricane motor with overhead valves. That’s why the carburetor cover sticks through the hood. No power steering. One seat belt
It has new brakes, carb, windshield glass and seals, seat covers and cushions, and runs good.”
This appears to be a CJ-3A.

“This is a 1952 Willys Jeep, its rust free and was redone to look like a military model. It runs great but needs some brake work. Im in the process of doing some brake work and if not it can be reflected on the final price. This is one tough durable jeep and they have a good history behind these jeeps. This jeep has been gerage kept after its restoration. Its in better shape than others that are asking thousands more. It also comes with a fitted cover.”
Has a new steel body.

“Willys FC170…unk year between 1957-1964
This project is fairly complete although the bed is missing (hey, that just means you can go whatever direction you like). Original gauges and mfg ser# plate are gone. Everything else appears to be there. The frame and drivetrain are intact with the original 6cyl Super Hurricane motor.
Wheels have been sandblasted and painted. Brand new front windshield (difficult to source). Cab is off the frame as shown and it’s just about ready to be sandblasted.”
