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.
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: Still Available.
(10/30/2019) The 2A has a rear PTO winch setup.

“Jeep has sat for years. Is all original. Have not tried to start it. It does have the factory pto winch. Has half cab with doors. Very cool restoration project. Sold with bill of sale”

Hey dave. I don’t think those 2a bezels were on your list! Back to the drawing board… 🙂
But seriously, I’d love to see the backside of that windshield frame to find out why that mod was necessary. If they boxed it out to add a functional dash board then maybe I could see that being ok. Because ad it sits now it’s a bit on the ugly side without knowing a reason behind the madness
John,
Good point. Since I must guess, I’d say they could be Aero Willys ones that have been attached to standard 2A bezels …
I suspect the box is storage; hopefully, someone will check this out and share some pics!

Given the location I’d bet that boxed area of cowl involves additional heat & defrost, it’s funny after the write up on headlight bezels this one has some.
Both sunk up to the hubs! Better make sure your trailer winch batteries are charged for these two. I’m guessing you’ll be dragging em up and not rolling em
Cool in a very unique kind of way. If I were to guess when this jeep was customized, modified, I would guess mid 1960’s. Of course the color may be faded, but it reminds me of the popular Jeep color of that time period INDIAN CERAMIC.
Mike, I felt the same way about it. There seems to be a quaint(?) practicality about it. This one also shows the use of the Willys Aero headlight bezels.
I think you have posted several jeeps with the boxed in area in front of the windshield. I think they were all North Western jeeps.
I think the jeep may be a good deal, if the drivetrain is complete. Lots of uniqueness, while staying somewhat original, and a PTO winch is a plus. It would be interesting to know its history.
I like it and would buy it if it was closer, but transport kills the deal.
Mark: if I remember correctly, I think the ones I’ve documented have been in Colorado and Montana area (which is ‘east’ to me 🙂 )
