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: Still Available.

“1947 Jeep Willys CJ2 for sale. $15k OBO
I am listing on behalf of a friend who has moved away.
Solid body and frame. Runs and drives well – only known issue is that one of the brakes starts to get sticky after longer drives. It was substantially rebuilt from the ground up about 5 years ago.
Otherwise, it’s in good shape and my friend would love for it to go to a Jeep enthusiast who can give it the love and enjoyment it deserves.”
The floors have been replaced/patched.
https://raleigh.craigslist.org/snw/d/apex-1947-jeep-cj-2a/7324416374.html
“Mostly restored 1947 CJ2A. New systems: brakes, electrics, shocks, exhaust, windshield, ignition and fuel system. Motor is good at 27k miles. Ready for your tires of choice and body work, or just take it out as is. No title, you will need to get a bonded title from DMV if you want to put it on the road. You will have more fun with this than a modern side by side and make new friends as well. Cash or cashiers check.”
Looks like this was in a CJ-5.

“Just pulled out of a Willy’s jeep it was in. Runs good no issues, comes with Willy’s adapter new clutch and belhousing. Believe this fits many skid loaders, and other equipment also.
This looks in good shape.

UPDATE: Was listed here: http://www.ewillys.com/2020/02/04/year-fc-150-youngsville-nc-2500/
Has a rear PTO setup. Not sure how much other value it has.

“This is a Forward Control Jeep turned into a tractor. It has beefed up springs, a rear Power Take-Off with an agri splined shaft, and an electric fan to enhance cooling at slow speeds. Has not run in years, tires are shot. Would make a great enclosed cab mower, or could be fitted with a backhoe.”
Not sure how much value is here. This is a DJ-3A convertible that has been modified with 4WD.

(04/13/2021) It’s rusty, but there still may be some useful parts (whether it is $4000 of useful parts is less clear).
https://atlanta.craigslist.org/wat/pts/d/marietta-1943-willys-mb-ww2-jeep/7313742605.html
“War hero. serial number starts with 20 followed by a 2 or 3 . the rest is not legible. that means it is a early 43. Very Rusty. Needs tub pans front and back. Missing back seat and front seats are toast. As the pictures show it has a lot of original ww2 stuff on it. If you don’t know what this is, then please don’t ask a lot of questions. If you aren’t somebody who builds these then you should look for less of a project. Pictures are clear. It rolls.”
