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 .
This appears nice.

UPDATE: This appears to have sold. It was listed for $2700.
Runs and drives.
“WW2 military Jeep with 1/2 cab and manual angle plow. All original including 6 volt electrical. Body has typical rust for its age but not real bad. It runs, drives and stops. I use it to plow my driveway and the neighbors. I do have another body tub,windshield frame, and fenders that’s pretty solid if someone wants to do a full resto for an additional 600 bucks.”
UPDATE: Was $3000. **SOLD**
This used to be a GPW …
“I have a great start to a GREAT jeep rig! An aftermarket (ie NO rust) ’42 gpw flatfender jeep, painless wiring system installed, 6 point rollcage, even a safari rack on top of that, tub is on a CJ 7 boxed frame. linked axles: Dana 44 up front, a BUILT 14 bolt in the rear! (will pop covers and see what gears they are), good windshield, heater installed, and autometer gauges.
The bad: The axles link system was NOT done correctly. Lots of good parts to reuse but needs to be done, correctly! Did have a amc 360 in it with a four speed. They are long gone! But, at least the clutch and brake peddles have already been converted to top swing peddles.”
It is a project. It would not shock me if this wasn’t actually complete.
“Complete but disasembled. New suspension parts. Good used 600×16 tires for rollarounds.”

(06/23/2011) Here’s a parts jeep.
“Selling project jeep”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500
A reader named Chad inherited this jeep from his Grandfather. He hopes it gets a good home. It looks like it would be a good restoration candidate.
“1948 Jeep Willys CJ2A for sale. The jeep sat in a barn since 1999. It ran drove into the parking spot that I picked it up from. There is very little rust. The floor boards and rear pan are in excellent shape. It was repainted at some point to the light blue color. It has original engine and it runs. Brakes work but are spongy due to the rubber getting a little soft. I have both seats, however only had one in for the pictures. Comes with full size spare rim and tire.”
