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: **SOLD** Was $4850.
For a ‘fully restored’ jeep, this doesn’t look particularly clean. But, it might be solid.
“Fully Restored 1949 CJ2A entire drive train has been restored, body restoration, 4 new Tires. Driven daily in the summer, moving must sell.”
This might be in good shape.
“Rare condition, straight body, original paint, oak floor boards, 4 cyl running Willys Jeep Overland. With a little restoration it can become your tailgate party pride and joy. For more information, email or call 360-832-3166.”

“1946 Willys CJ2A. Running, complete, original, clear title, with current registration. With an extra L-engine and new, uninstalled Best Top
Done: Engine compartment cleaned, fresh fluids, block painted gray, new battery, new fuel pump installed, rebuilt carb installed, recored radiator, new muffler, and new 6v ignition and hose sets installed. Cleaned and painted the gas tank too. Body is straight, frame is straight. No major rust. Only major hole is at the bottom of the toolbox.
Needed: New tires (I have all 5 OEM wheels), new brakelines, connect the brakelight, install seatbelts (or not), connect the fuel gauge, get the wiper working, and new seals along the drive and prop lines. Doing all this will make a safer vehicle, but not change the way it drives, which is fine. Then new front seat cushions and covers, adding a rear bench, and installing the BestTop (that I have) or not, and anything else cosmetic.
A real straight unaltered (sloppy paint on top of the original farm green) flat-fender Willys.
All offers of $3000 or better considered. Happy to answer any questions.”

I’ve never seen fold-down seats in a jeep. I could see the practicality of that.
