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 .

“I am considering selling my 1946 Willys CJ-2A 3 speed on the column jeep. $8,500 or best offer. I really dont need the money so if if i dont get a certain amount of the jeep.. it can sit in my garage for the next 50 yrs as a family airloom. It has been in my family since the 1950’s. The engine was rebuilt many years ago. It runs strong. It has a fresh coat of paint and a new battery. Was recently tuned up with new plugs and wires. There is one small issue i have yet to resolve. It needs a new fuel pump. I just havent gotten around to changing it myself yet. The jeep comes with an older top that was fitted for the jeep. There are about 73k miles or so on the vehicle.
This is not a show vehicle but it is a well maintained 70 yr old Jeep. Its the original 6 volt system. Yes the vehicle does leak(as you can see from the picture). They all do.
The column shift is rare. The early batch of CJ’s had them and they only produced about 38,000 with the colum shift.”

(05/13/2015) Looks pretty original.
“Great Korean War vintage 1952 M38 Jeep. This is military surplus, not a CJ-2 civilian model. Very fun to drive, unrestored, all original except for a new gas tank. New batteries, 24v system. Great to run around the farm or put in a parade. Dull OD green, not a shiney finish to attract the enemies’ attention. My wife did not like driving it near as much as I did.”
