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 .

This 2A appears to have an Econo-body type “H” Porter & Reed top.

With the rain staying away for a few days, I booked it over to Renton for a few days to work on Rusty. Here are a few of the things I did today.
I did a little more straightening to the body. This time I wanted to remove a bow along the top back. I’ve mounted a board as a straight edge. You can see the cancer in the rear.
You can see there’s a gap between the board and the back.
After some clamps and some sweet talking with a 5lb sledge, I coaxed the back into line.
Then I played doctor and removed the cancer.
Craig shared this article about the M-38A1D.

It’s dated Nov 29, 1940, which is highly unlikely given this version of the jeep hadn’t been built yet. I’d guess more like late Nov 29, 1942 is more likely.
“1940 Press Photo US Military Men Directing Jeep on a Float. This is an original press photo. US Military men directing jeep on a float.Photo measures 10 x 8.25inches. Photo is dated 11-29-1940.”

(09/15/2015) Nice CJ-5 with what looks to be a vintage top in excellent condition.
“1961 Jeep Willy CJ5, w/corvette engine 8 cylinder, chrome Ramsey Winch Box, soft top, 3 speed, runs good, stored in garage.”
https://losangeles.craigslist.org/sgv/cto/6079495731.html
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6500.
It could be a good price.
“Runs good new tires new batteries, new seats ,nice paint, 24 volt system, just about rust free.”
It’s a 2A body that the seller has modified to look more MB/GPWish.
“I have a 1946 willys cj2a. It is a very good jeep, in good shape, and runs good. It was rusted and full of big holes when I got it. I spent a lot of time repairing, I cut out the holes, and welded in new steel. This jeep didn’t come with a glove box, I built one for it. It has the four cylinder hericaine engine that is real strong. And Dana 18. This is a civilian jeep, so it had a taile gate, but I was converting it to a 45 military, so I put in the solid rear panel. I only put it in one car show, and won 2nd place. That might have just been because of the gun. I don’t need to sale the jeep, I just don’t do anything with it anymore. I hate to see it not being used. I want someone new to enjoy it like I have. The browning 1919a4 that mounts to it, I have it in semiauto belt fed. I don’t want to sale it, but if the offer is good I will let it go with the jeep. I might be willing to trade for guns, or a jeep wrangler. $8,000 is just an opener, call me, let’s deal.”
