About eWillys
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.
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 .
(01/07/2011) I think this will eventually sink completely into the soil. It’s made it about 4 inches already.

Brett found this unusual (and perhaps commerative) lighter and ashtray. I wanted to make sure and post this before it sold. Note the red FC toy of some kind in the background as well.
“Interesting vintage WWII figural lighter. I believe it is a Willys Jeep pulling a small trailer that is the ashtray. I’m not sure if it’s made from steel or heavy cast aluminum. The tires are rubber and roll. The levers on the side, which look like door handles, make the lighter on the front of the hood pop up. On the top is a large medal that portrays the Berlin Blockade of the allied airlift of 1948-1949. The roof lifts up to reveal a compartment to hold cigarettes .. the short unfiltered type. Inside this compartment is the original paper label from the maker. W Baier ….. Ges. Gesch. The rest is in German, then US D 150078 patent pending. This Jeep is in very good condition, but there is a bit of oxidation on one side. The only piece missing is a small pole that would connect the trailer to the back of the Jeep. This Jeep is just one part of much larger collection. If you would like more information or pictures, feel free to contact me.”
Mike’s got a carb for sale (that I forgot to post yesterday 🙂 ).
“f-head carb holley one barrel comes with top linkage, spacer and rebuilt carb, plus extra parts. Does not come with the airfilter. $45 dollars 10 to ship. Email mikester51@comcast.net.”
“jeep cj 2a this is a jeep for a restoration, it needs a lot of work on the body floors are bad rear corners are bad and windshield are bad. hood and grill as well as fenders are ok.. It has 2 motors with it one is in it and it is locked up , but the other motor is complete and it comes with a generator/alternator flywheel ,water pump and all pullys it turns free, but thats all I know of it I have never had it running. I bought it as a project for me and my son but the interest has died off so its time to get rid of it. The running gear seem to all be good diffs front and rear as well as transmission and transfer case. I only have one pic as of now but if you need more just ask and I can email them or you can come see it in person..thanks…Rick.”
“Selling Grandpas Jeep just like the one he drove in the Army rebuilt starter , generator,battery and new wheel cylinder. This does run. He may be interested in trading for guns”
A few nights ago I reached the 10,000 post mark (each story or ad equals a ‘post’). I’ve been looking forward to that milestone for the last few months. It averages out to about 3,333 posts per year since the launch of eWillys, though actually most have been done in the last 2 years. If you figure an average of 15 minutes a post, then that’s about 2,500 hours of work (or 10 posts per day or just a little less than 104 days of straight work), though that doesn’t include the email correspondence or old posts that I update. I think I’ll take Saturday off!
“motor runs really good. cab has some rust in bottom corners. frame is not rusted. no brakes. right front wheel may have bad bearing. gas tanks may need to be cleaned.”
