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 is a good running, solid, fun 1948 Willys CJ2A. I have owned this Jeep for 21 years and originally rebuilt it in 1994 and militarized it last year. It runs, drives, stops excellent. It has a very solid body with Gillispie 319 paint. Under the hood it is clean and has been converted to 12v. The tires and tubes are less than a year old. The drivetrain has less than 2k miles on it since rebuild. Also included is a bunch of original Willys parts such as: an original 1942 MB grill, a back seat, 6v starters and generators, carbs, driveshafts, axels and more. This is a great old Jeep and I hate to see her go but really don’t have time to enjoy it like I should.”

This looks nice. Even better, it’s been broken in a little following its restoration.
“I’m listing my jeep that I have loved and continue to love, just trying to downsize a bit and refocus priorities. It has been a staple in my life for a while now and have participated in numerous parades and shows around Jacksonville. It is a 1944 Willys MB WWII jeep. It runs well and does not smoke. Has the original WWII flathead 4 cylinder w/ original 3 speed T-84 transmission. Brand new brakes/brake lines and rebuilt master cylinder, filled w/ straight silicone brake fluid. It utilizes an 8 volt battery and voltage regulator has been adjusted to charge it properly. Uses the original 6 volt lighting just burns a bit brighter. Has been running this way for over a year with no issues. Installed a new “original style” cloth covered wiring harness from Vintage Wiring of Maine, the best in the market. New original style fuel pump w/ the primer handle, new repro gas tank, new repro windshield frame. The tub, hood, seat frames; with the exception of the canvas, rubber and a few odds and ends, everything else is original WWII period. The hood number is original to the jeep as I found them under the paint and have photos attesting to this. It is a nice piece of history and an attention getter everywhere you go.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay

Steve notes that this still has the column shift mechanics, though it also has a floor shift.
“This is a 1946 Willys CJ2A that I bought from a customer of mine. Her husband bought it brand new and I have only driven it to town a few times. The gears are good and tight. It starts just fine on the 6 volt system. The Heater still works and I think they are kind of rare. When I bought the jeep She said that it had not been started for over ten years. After inspection I found thick oil in the oil pan so I removed the pan and cleaned out the old oil before trying to start the engine. At this time I took pictures of the cylinders for inspection. Two of the cylinders have marks where the rings sat over the years. The cylinders will at sometime need to be honed out to remove the small ridges which you can see in the pictures. After I had the carburator cleaned and we were able to start the engine the water pump had to be replaced with a new one and I put a new belt on at that time.
I have driven the jeep around while hunting and totally had a great time. It is like going back in time and looking at the scenery a little longer because you are traveling a little slower.”
I’ve included only part of the description. The seller’s description is extensive.
“This is a 1951 CJ3A Willys jeep that belonged to a SE Georgia Cattle farmer and hasn’t ever been in salty roads of colder areas. This vehicle was one of 3 jeeps that belonged to person and had nice weather proof shelter over head appeared not to have been abused or trashed” and limited use because of multiple “toys. This is not a patch plate or bondo special as some of these older Willys on ebay appear to be and even the under pasenger seat utility box is solid(rare). The wind shield frame is very solid as well and this is recurring problem on Willys exposed to elements as well as floor pans.The paint is recent and is enamel OD green and only pic with dog is pre new paint that jeep is currently….”
