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 .
Listed as a 1947 CJ-3A, it looks more like a modified MB/GPW.

Hi All, Does anyone know where to get rims like the ones on this Jeep? I recently got a 53 CJ3b with the wagon type wheels but I always preferred this wide regular looking rims. Had them once a long time ago on a Wagoneer.
Frame looks WW2 (rear shock mounts)…body looks GPW (rectangle tool box lock indent)…Might be a good start for some one…
Steve, I believe those are Kelsey Hayes rims. Here’s more information about them: http://www.ewillys.com/2013/07/05/4-kelsey-hayes-rims-on-ebay/
They are popular and not easy to find. You’ll have to watch eBay, Craigslist, Facebook or forums such as the http://www.earlycj5.com/xf_cj5/index.php.

Craig, I wondered how you identified the shock mounts, but then I realized that I’d posted a pic that shows the bed and the GPW tool lids (not sure how I didn’t see that — guess I was focused elsewhere when I looked at that pic).
Pic of side view shows top of rear shocks (vertical to frame)…
