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 .
It’s name appears to be the “Taurus Turtle”. Look like an older build.

I’ve seen another wide brim fiberglass tub from the northeast similar to this, but have yet to know who was building them.
“Up for sale is a Willys Jeep CJ2A fiberglass tub and a soft top to go with it. The tub is used, but in really nice condition. The soft top is vinyl, made by besttop, has the bows, doors, and the hardware to go with it. The top does need some cleaning, but not in terrible shape. If you have been looking for these items then you know what they go for new (not cheap). I also have other CJ2A parts. If you are interested in any of those let me know what your needs are and I can let you know what I have. This is a cash only deal.”
