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 .

(05/07/2014) The body has obviously been modified.
“This vehicle is in decent running condition and decent condition for the body. It is a 4×4, good meaty tires. Has roll bar, 2 gas tanks, towbar, All working lights, new fuel pump recently put on. Had doors made for this jeep and they can be removed.
This is good for playing in the hills or summer time work vehicle. This is a classic or collectible vehicle. I am moving and I will not have a place for the Jeep. I do not leave it outside, therefore I would rather sell at this price then to have this jeep destroyed by the weather elemen THIS TRANSACTION WILL ONLY BE DONE IN PERSON. DUE TO HIGH FRAUDULENT ACTIVITY .“

(02/13/2018) Lots of original jeep here. Quite a few holes in the dash. There are other changes as well that the seller acknowledges.

“This is a very early production, perhaps the very first few civilian jeeps( CJ2A ) that rolled out after the war.
Originally column shift with all linkages in place needing only the shift stalk to take it back to original arrangement.
These very early productions after the war for civilian use were installed with the same body as the MB’s except for the modification of a tail gate, side filling neck gas tank, spare side mounted and windshield with WILLYS on it.
A rare find as this jeep was delivered in Arizona and has remained here since then with one family as stated by the family from whom I bought the vehicle. Last registered in 1970’s and then put away in storage.
UPDATE: Pics now provided.

(03/07/2018) “Was told this was a 1946 Willys Jeep, I know its a Willys , what I am unsure of is the year, the drivetrain is complete, both original rears, are in it, as well as original rims, it rolls, this little Jeep has a 3 speed on the column, and the two shifters on the floor, for high and low, and for 4 wheel drive.
There is not title, selling for parts or restore?,, it rolls for loading, there are no other parts, what you see in the pictures is what is there.
Located in Central NJ. again there is no title, it was lost.
This could be a 1945, 1946, or a 1947, there is a number on the engine block.
According to some Jeep guys that emailed this is a rare 1946 Jeep, as it is a stick on the column, only made one year, well we know its not a 1949.”
