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 .
This will be auctioned on Saturday. It runs, but needs work.

“I have a 1946-47 Willys CJ2A that is in very restorable shape of to make it into whatever you would like, The rundown: been in a barn for 20 plus yrs, engine, trans, transfer case is all rebuild able but is not running, floor pans are in good shape not rusted through, body could use a little work but is in great shape for its year and compared to others I have found. Has an extra windshield and frame. One rust through spot in the frame but nothing too concerning. It only has two rims with no tires so it is on a trailer an not mobile. Take a look at pics..”
