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 .
Not clear how much value is here.

(04/09/2017) Inclues a hardtop and a PTO. Needs some bumper work.
“Running 1948 CJ2A. There is a dent if the front bumper and the frame horns should be replaced. Frame itself is straight and solid. Body is in decent shape but the floorboards are rusted in the normal places. Brakes work and have been rebuilt with new drums, cylinders, and lines. Frame and body ID tags are still attached and the jeep has a clean MN title that matches the tags.
Also has a hard top with doors, snowplow bracket, and an additional bracket coming off of the rear bumper. Would consider selling these separately.“

Added off-road equipment includes Warn lockout hubs, Rancho shocks, and a transmission oil cooler. This custom Jeep CJ2A is being sold through a dealer with a clear Colorado title.”
