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 .
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4500.
This looks mostly stock, with a few minor mods like the lower windshield wiper, the front parking/turn signals and the addition of extra lights on the back.
“Only the 2nd. owner of Nice Antique 46′ Willy’s Jeep. No rust, extremely clean inside and out, stored inside always, runs good, has a hitch on the front so you can tow it behind a vehicle and have lots of extra original parts that are included. First model marketed for the public. Thanks for your interest”
UPDATE: This is back on eBay
(08/19/2011) Not perfectly stock, but perfectly nice.
“This is a beautiful Jeep Completly restored. Engine and drivetrain has been rebuilt with all new parts. The best way to describe this vehicle is better than new condition, It didnt roll off the line in 48 this nice! Every single part that could be replaced on this Jeep has been replaced. I’m posting this for my grandpa who spent 13 years on this project. The end project was so nice he didn’t want to drive it, That being the reason for only having 60 miles on it. All the mechanical work was done by a professional mechanic, same goes for the body work. The underbody is coated with paint matching truck bed liner. Shocks, brake componets, bearings, rims, tires, radiator everything on it is new. If your a serious buyer please call James at (989) 793-4857 and he can go over everything in detail with you, Like I said I’m listing for my grandpa. I can get an answer for you if you prefer email.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $700.
(08/09/2011) This includes a variety of extra parts.

This past January Bob took pictures of this jeep parked coldly in the snow. It looks like it was ready for a trip, but then got stuck. Thanks for sharing Bob.

UPDATE: Back on eBay. Colin exchanged emails with the seller and learned this is a very early DJ-3A, as it is the 92nd DJ3A built in late 1955.
This is a nice DJ-3A that was found on the CJ-3B Page.
“Nice clean jeep. No rust… Been in the family scenes the mid 60s . All stock 4cyl rebuilt with only @ 100 miles on it. 3-speed transmission on the column. This Jeep is stock all but tail lights and air cleaner, which I have both to include in sale… 2 Wheel drive…. Great for around town to the post office and back. Hate to let it go must move on…”
It’s a project.
“1947 Jeep CJ2A. My son & I were going to build this Jeep, but, decided on a CJ7 instead. We got it running last year, clutch is good, drove it around the yard & gears all work. Frame is very good, body is better than average. We decided on the CJ7 because top speed on the CJ2 is around 40mph. This is a good winter project for someone. $1,300 207 450 6184”

The body appears a little rustier than the seller describes. There appears to be value here.
