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 .
Thanks go to Joe-in-Mesa for sending me one of the Willys Rally Essential Workers T-Shirt. I think this t-shirt is a pretty clever way to marry the pandemic with the old Willys workhorses (you can order one here).
This year’s Willys Rally is currently scheduled for May 14-16, 2021, in Moab, Utah. You can learn more at the Willys Rally website.
I snagged this small “Jeep Owners Club of New Zealand” hat pin from eBay for cheap. Having biked around the South Island of New Zealand when I was 20 years old, I’ve always had a soft spot for the country. I lived off New Zealand meat pies and banana chocolate chip ice cream while there … Boy did they have great ice cream!
UPDATE: I found an inexpensive issue of the February 2, 1946 Collier’s Magazine, so I scanned the cover. It has the Welcome Home Johnny sign celebrating’s soldiers homecoming as a farmer races his jeep down the road. I found no jeep related stuff on the inside.
This has a fiberglass tub and a rear gas tank with the filler in the middle of the back.

“Selling my 48 Willys jeep. It is an older restoration with fiberglass tub. Runs great and everything works. All gauges function and has an electric fuel pump to keep it running smooth. Fun toy to go anywhere this summer. Ride it like a sXs with the ability to go down any road. Only flaw is cracks in the glass.”
This has a couple mods and some patches along the front frame rails (well, driver’s side anyway).

Sat in garage this winter started up great, I did have to pump gas a few times but took it for spin last weekend. Fixing transmission this week.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(03/26/21) To me, the jeep doesn’t look Fiesta Yellow, but it may just be the photos. The jeep looks solid.

“This is a 1948 CJ2A Willy’s Jeep in original color Fiesta yellow. It has the original “L” in line 4 cylinder engine with over drive and oil bath air cleaner. Still has 6 volt system and installed seat belts and turn signals. Top speed 35 mph with overdrive engaged, but it climbs like no other. Runs like a swiss clock and DOES NOT burn any oil. Items included; spare tire, tow bar and signal lights, cargo rack with tool box, spare tire mount and 2 jerry can mounts jerry cans not included. Also included is a fully enclosed canvas vinyal top with doors to include the bikini top in the pics. The oil pan does leak some but any vehicle that’s 73 years old does. Replacing the gasket is the fix.”
This is listed as a 1951, but it has a CJ-2A body.

Merlin’s got this project truck for sale. Questions, offers etc.. email: merlin at hansonmechanical.com.
“1957 Willys truck. Clear Maryland title. This lived its life on a farm near Westminster, Maryland. This was a project that stalled. I need the space in my shop. Please read carefully and review photos (all photos and a full description can be seen here) before asking questions.
This is a project for someone with the right skills. There is alot of value here and the greasy, tetanus inducing, bolt shearing, soul killing horrible cleanup was done for you. It is not a project I will put any work into; it comes as is, where is, no warrantees implied or offered. Cash is the only payment I will take. Reasonable offers entertained. I do not want more stuff, so please do not offer your 1995 Honda, jet ski, Chevy truck project, yard trailer etc… as a trade. I am not interested.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
