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 .
These photos appear to have come from this Danish website: http://www.armyvehicles.dk. It took some searching to find them.
Charles sent this as well. I can’t remember if I’ve posted this before or not, but it’s worth a repost:
The envelope is ripped, but the picture is great. It looks a lot like a slat grille.
“For sale is an envelope that would have been used for a soldier’s correspondence during World War II. It features a cartoon of a soldier driving a jeep. This item is copyright 1942 by Porto-Server of Chicago. The graphics are great; the envelopehas been torn at the end opposite the cartoon.”
I’ve seen these in chrome, but never in gold.

A friend of mine is looking for the following hard-to-find parts for his farm jeep. He’s a serious buyer, but not real good with the internet, so has asked if I would help him try to find them. He’s willing to pay for shipping (using Uship) from anywhere in the US.
– Newgren lift
– Newgren single plow (or any other implements with tag)
– dual wheel adapters
– Koenig pto twin stick (50 & 58)
– Koenig half cab (complete and with tag)

(11/18/2013) “I have a 1948 willys cj2a for sale. I have had it for a couple years and been fixing it up to run around in, but don’t drive it that often. It has a new radiator, hoses, thermostat, carburetor, fuel pump, fuel tank, brake lines, shocks, tires, clutch and just has primer right now. Includes some seats but will need to be mounted in the passenger side. There is a few dings in the body but overall decent shape.

The title lists this at $3. I assume it is $3000. The hardtop looks good.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was Make Offer
“Alright CL, up for sale is my ’49 CJ2A. It’s got a 4 cylinder flat head and 3 speed tranny. Little background, I was given this by my grandfather a few years ago before he died, I had the intentions on making it a project for myself, but it’s just gonna take too long for me. It’s a restoration, not a project. Before I was given it he primarily used it around the property, my uncle told me he rebuilt the motor and tranny a few years before it was given to me. It doesn’t run now as i let it sit, i’m sure with new plugs, a carb cleaning and some fresh gas it will though. I always loved this thing so I’m not gonna let it go for dirt cheap, they’re not too easy to come by, but I also know it’s no museum peace,the body is pretty bad. Frame is surprisingly decent. No seats or seat brackets, when i first got it the seats were shot so I cut them out and planned on welding in new brackets for larger seats, but never did. It was always in a carport until last year when the snow destroyed it. Now it has multiple tarps over it. Look up what these go for, and make an offer.”
