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 4WD Willy’s Jeep runs and drives and has a clear Colorado title. It was purchased by the present owner in Colorado in the late 1970’s. The vehicle is located in Basalt, CO and is advertised locally for sale. The Jeep is original except for electrical 6 to 12 Volt conversion, hydraulic brakes and repainted. The original 4 cylinder engine runs and has been started annually just about every year during the 34 years it has been garaged. The Jeep was driven out of the garage a couple of months ago for taking a series of photos. While in storage, the owner drove the Jeep about once a year, mostly around town. The engine runs good and the Jeep is drivable. It is comfortable at 40 MPH although it will go 45 MPH. These speeds are typical for older Jeeps and should be anticipated by the new owner. The seals will need replacing due to the lack of use and a long period in storage. The vehicle has seen less than 100 miles of off road four (4) wheeling in the last 34 years. The Jeep has some minor surface rust in small areas that could easily be repaired. The original speedometer was replaced and shows 2114 miles since the early 1980’s. The actual mileage is unknown. Around the same time the speedometer was replaced, the cylinder head was also machined and the head gasket replaced. A new gas tank was installed in 2011 to keep the fuel filter from clogging due to aged and varnished gas in the old tank . . .”
Looks good.
“1942 US Army 4X4 1/4 ton truck (Jeep). Frame-up restoration completed in 2008. Delivered to U.S. Army on Jan. 15, 1942. New canvas top in 2010. Steering, brakes, engine, transmission rebuilt. New tires, new body tub, seats, fuel tank, windshield, grille, fenders, engine hood . .Receipts available for all work completed. Have used for parades, shows, etc, 4 or 5 times a year. Always stored indoors.”

UPDATE: Was on eBay.
(05/23/2012) This looks solid. I’d take a close look at the paint.
“Here is an 1946 Willys CJ2A. It is 4×4 and it runs and drives good. The lights work and it has a new paint job, new seats, new tires, new brakes and new glass. It does have a later model 4cyl flathead motor out of a jeepster. The jeep also has factory PTO and also a 3 pt. I have not messed with the 3 pt. on the back and don’t know alot about it. The jeep does not have a title. They certainly don’t make them like this anymore and they’re had to find with the factory PTO and 3pt. Also, let me know if you would like to see pictures of anything specific and I will try my best to get them for you.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was priced at $6000.
This looks like a good price.
“Due to financial dificulties, I am putting my WWII Jeep up for sale that I have owned since 1967. It was delivered to the Army in April 1945. That is the only history of it prior to when I purchased it that I know. I have tried to keep it as original as possible. I spent over $6000 in parts in 1997 (canvas top, seats, tires, lights, gauges, brakes, exhaust, carburetor, etc.). This past fall, my son and I installed all new leaf springs, shocks and shackles. It runs good and is very reliable. Never fails to get attention wherever we drive it. Has CLEAR title. Asking $6000 obo.”
