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 .

“1953 willys jeep for. very sale very rare cj3a . Very good condition. sorry Im posting for a freind and don’t have any pictures yet but will have soon”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3800.
This has a Toyota drivetrain.
“This is a great running jeep. It run and drives good with an all toyota drivetrain (20R engine, 5 speed transmission, toyota t case, and toyota 8″ front and rear end.) Great modification to the jeep and makes a lightweight jeep even lighter! The 20R moves the jeep down the road very well. IMO these were the best 4×4’s ever made, mainly because they were 2100 lbs from the factory! If you are looking for a fun toy this is it! It runs, drives, stops, steer, and starts all very well. Tires are almost brand new. comes with a brand new rebuilt 5 speed and rebuilt transfer case with 3.8:1 low gears swapped in it. $3800 OBO”
Dennis recently moved from Ohio to Astoria, Oregon. A few weeks ago he decided to drive his CJ-2A (w/out an overdrive no less) the entire way. He had a few hiccups along the way, but otherwise arrived safely. You can ready the entire post from the CJ-2A Page here:

Marc spotted this article about a 500lb lightweight airborne jeep-like vehicle from a post on Jalopnik. The vehicle was feature in the July 1958 issue of Popular Mechanics (pg 83). It demonstrates that the lightweight airborne program that started during WWII was still ongoing.

“Very nice 1946 CJ2a 1946 (one year post WWII) flat fender Willy’s Jeep. $13,000 invested….engine, transmission, Warn Overdrive…ALL…rebuilt last year. New tires, new break cylinders, etc, etc. Military paint – US Navy Seabees”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1200
Sure looks like a good price. Runs and drives.
“Early short fender CJ5 with a running Buick Dauntless odd fire 225 V6, T90 transmission, Dana 18 twin stick transfer case, Dana 44 rear end, Dana 27 front end with Warn hubs. New 100 amp GM 1 wire alternator. Has power steering with tilt column, power brakes, and 33×12.50 Goodyear mud tires. New brake lines. Hydraulic clutch. Runs and drives, and might make a good hunting or ranch rig, but would never be road worthy because the frame has been broken and welded back together in a few places, and is most likely not straight. Asking $1200 or best offer, thanks for looking.”
UPDATE: Was $12,500. **SOLD**
