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 .

“Dropping price for quick sale….this project is 70-80% complete. I am prepared to move it out of state, but will sell to a serious buyer who wants a cool old Willys that can be used as a toy not a parade prop.
Serious buyers only. Cash is king.
Most recent photos first
1947 CJ2A, I bought this after two owners tore it down and did a little work…literally a basket case. I want to finish it, but will be moving out of state.. I don’t have to sell it, but might for the right price and a good home. Otherwise I will just tow it when I move.
Just finished some repairs to the under side of the tub and coated it in Chassis Saver over the weekend (see photo of tub upside down and coated black..3rd phot from the end). So the price has been bumped up. May get the tub back on the frame soon and then get the inside of tub and exterior ready for Monstaliner.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $800.
Parts from a 3B and a 2A.
“I have a 53 or so high hood that is titled as a 47 CJ2A. Many parts all very solid. Very little rust. 53 tub has a painless wiring harness, chevy tilt column, rino lined in and under all parts, full cage, toyota brake booster clutch master and pedals, and an Allstate jeep top with doors.(never been installed on this jeep) I do not want to part out. Must take all. ”
UPDATE: A reader noted this was for sale in Houston on eBay as of Apr 18th. Hard to believe someone shipped this to California for resale??
It’s rough. The seat design makes me think this used to be in Texas.
“US ARMY JEEP Willys 1951 CJ-3A, needs total restoration. it has all the original components transmission and motor, This is a relic, this was a Korea war era vehicle. GOOD FOR A PROJECT! OR COLLECTORS! It has 92280 miles in it”

Straight from our Jakarta bureau comes this video about a ‘Jiffy jeep’ team that could use a little more practice. However, what they lack in speed, they make up for in enthusiasm. The event was part of the Parjo 2015. If you are up on your Indonesian language skills, then you can read the story in full.
If you’ve never seen a Jiffy Jeep quickly disassembled and reassembled, then you’ll enjoy this link: http://www.ewillys.com/tag/quick-disassemble/
This article appeared in The Lima News, out of Lima, Ohio. Buy a bond and get a ride in a Jeep. That sounds like it was worth the price! I don’t see a year listed on the article.
