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 .

I liked this one, had not run across this one before.
Not to say it’s not already posted here on eWillys there is alot of content here! But either way from time to time what’s old is new again, at some point the plan will probably included to go over the archives and pull up some of the older stuff. It’s probably new to alot of us.

“Andy’s Picks”
Pretty neat Monroe Lift

From what I could find these were released around Feb, 13 1948 (<<<<< edit, I had 47 here, thanks Barry for making me doible check that), here is a clipping from the Detroit paper.
Also here is a clipping from 1948 for an Ad for a 1948 Jeep with a Monroe Lift and just about everything but a kitchen sink. 8-2-1948
Following that led me to this neat ad. 3-28-1948
Update: Listing Removed.
Yes I fully get the CJ2A was not made in 1950, but as we know it’s possible the title work and sale was done in 1950. My motto is if the title says it’s a 1950, well who is to argue. But really with something this old anything could have been added along the way, Jeep Salads are very common. Also makes no mention of a title in the ad, so may need to do some homework.
I’m kinda green to CJ’s and the differences so come learn with me if you would like to follow along, or click the link for
There is nothing here. No web page for this address. 404 Error.
My easy button to learn more was the resource in
at CJ3A.info they have a great guide so I followed along with that.

First the windshield 2 piece is a CJ2A, the 3A is 1 piece. But those are interchangeable.
Ignition switch on the right side.
The 2A drivers seat bracket has that slight downward slope vs the more 90 deg the 3A has.
Then this has the bow storage on the outside of the drivers rear quarter. CJ2A had this the 3As did not.
Some other features I like on this one…….
This rig has some great Patina to it, it could be a really fun project.
Has a top bow.
Wheels look period correct. Not going to have the period correct air in the LF, but can’t have everything.
Don’t miss that rear PTO!
This was one of “Andy’s Picks”, thanks for the link! Doubt he thought I could drag this out so much, but as I learn might as well pass it on to others who may want to follow along.
Mike shared this rig with a Muller top and some other updates.
