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 :Price dropped to $9000.
I haven’t seen a metal plate added to the carb like this one has.

“1948 willys jeep 4×4.. 4 cylinder,3speed manual , 2 speed transfer case, fully restored. Runs and drives great. Converted to 12 volt system..This is a great jeep, just don’t drive.. asking $12,500.”
What exactly is the purpose of the metal plate? can’t figure it out.
It’s a homemade heat shield to keep gas from percolating. I could see a value to it if it sat stationary for a time, say, running a pc of equipment. There actually was a factory one for some applications. If I can find it in our inventory, I’ll photograph it and forward it.
Barney, that would be great. I can’t remember seeing a factory heat shield.
Here’s a custom(?) heat shield: https://www.thecj2apage.com/forums/fuel-leak-revisited-and-carb-question_topic28429.html

Dave, I emailed you that pic and sent a follow up email. Are you getting them?
Hi Barney,
I did not. Did you send them to d@deilers.com? my d@ewillys.com account is still offline.
