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: Back on eBay
(05/03/2012) I wish the pictures were better.

Bruce wanted to share this “Form H1-3-59 Jeep Gala advertising booklet”.
There are two separate ebay auctions here. Both are reprints from 1961 photographs.
These two are part of this auction
And these two are part of this auction:
UPDATE: Was an in-person-auction.
Here’s a toy surrey jeep that includes the original box.
“July 15th
COLLECTORS HALL
135 West Center Street
Cambridge, IL”
UPDATE: Back on eBay. Was recently listed for $43,000 on Craigslist.
“A full and complete body off frame restoration was performed several years ago with a “cost no object” budget and completed the same way a high caliber major concours classic would have been done. It features its F-Head “Lightning” four- cylinder engine, three speed manual transmissionThis is truly the best one of these vehicles you could find”

I don’t see to many surreyized CJ-2As.
“1948 Willys CJ2A in pretty good shape. Does not have a title. I have not started it in about 8 years, but have oil in the cylinders. It was converted to 12 volt. Transfer case or 4 wheel drive works.I have the doors, but are not shown installed. One window is cracked in one of the doors. Have been meaning to restore and get new parts to tighten up the steering and suspension. It needs brake work. Two new tires on the back. Have an extra seat and two old heaters to go with it. Stored in the barn for the last 16 years.”
I received an email from Paul the other day and the subject read ‘Refreshing’. One quick look at the picture in the email explained what he meant (see the 1st picture below).
Yep, that is one pretty jeep!
Using the keyword “Wailea” I started tracking down more pictures of it. It turns out Colin has a couple of them too, as does a friend of his. So, here are a few of this jeep that is still owned by the Wailea Hotel in Maui (boy, after today’s cold weather, Maui is sounding awfully nice!)
More pictures I found on the internet:
And from Colin, you can see the jeep prior to the stenciling:
I happened across these pedal cars tonight at an old classic car website: http://www.oldclassiccar.co.uk/pedal-cars.htm. You can see other pedal cars at the CJ-3B Page: http://cj3b.info/Toys/ridingtoys.html
On a separate search I found a bunch of pedal cars for sale through http://www.prices4antiques.com . Unfortunately, you have to subscribe to find out the prices.
