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 .

Maybe some value?
“Selling a project of mine. It’s a 1947 CJ2A Willys Jeep. The body and frame are pretty rough. Transmission and transfer case are not installed. Transfer case looks good but transmission needs to be rebuilt. The engine has been converted to a 4cyl Ford Pinto and has the adapter plate. Engine cranks over and everything works however wouldn’t start. Probably wouldn’t take much effort to get her started though. Oil and filter are fresh. New coil (has been converted to 12V). New starter motor.
Would be good as a parts vehicle or a project.
I do not have the title for it. ”

Thanks to Marty for spotting this one. It’s on a Montana Facebook page.
“Motor runs good. Needs battery. Awesome winter toy. Glass needs repaired due to a naughty kid lol. Power glide tranny. Original and new parts. Check eBay, this is a steal. Needs tlc, but drives and runs the way it is. Make offer. You hual.”
Don shared these photos of jeeps from his visit to the the New Mexico Museum of Military History Albuquerque, New Mexico (That is the Facebook page … it’s website doesn’t appear to be working). This place is only about a mile away from the jeep dealership that has the CJ-2A in it. Note the Ford GP! Don sent a selfie this time 🙂
Anyone familiar with West Virginia’s Top Kicks Military Museum? If not, it’s worth a look. Merlin stopped by the other day and filed a detailed report on his blog. The museum has an extensive Jeep collection that even includes a copy of the CJ4 Jeep and a 6 wheeler.

Pete from the Old Willys Forum shared this news with me. Click on the links to learn more.
Joseph is working on his high school senior project this summer. He is planning to build a CNC Mill machine that will mill wood, plastic, and aluminum. He just launched a Kickstarter Campaign to sell his Willys Station Wagon LED tail lights as a kit, to fund the purchase of the CNC parts.
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1192462920/willys-station-wagon-led-tail-light-kit
Once he has the CNC machine together, he will use it to produce the circuit boards for the LED tail lights, and other small parts that he can sell to help fund his ’51 Willys Wagon build.
http://www.oldwillysforum.com/forum/showthread.php?2989-Joseph-s-51-Wagon-Build
He is hoping to sell 25-30 sets of the lights to fund the CNC project. It is an ambitious senior project for a 16 year old kid, but he has already raised 2/3 of the 30 day campaign goal in the first 10 days… There has been lots of interest in these lights on www.oldwillysforum.com and hopefully from others who might not visit the forum to find the info on them.
Even folks don’t need a set of the lights, they can support Joseph’s Kickstarter campaign by pledging $25 or more and get a cool shirt he designed for the project. If they are feeling philanthropic, they can donate any amout to the campaign…
Here is what comes in the “kit”, for each tail light, which bolts in to the stock Willys tail light bezel.
