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 .

(09/03/2014) This looks like a nicely updated flattie.
“I am selling my 1946 Jeep Willy CJ2A. It is no longer stock and has a number of upgrades including:
Body is aftermarket replacement parts (steel)
MB/GPW windshield frame
1967 Chevy 327 (275HP from factory)
1968 Muncie M21 four-speed transmission with Hurst Shifter
Dana/Spicer 18 Transfer-case
Dana/Spicer 25 Front Axle
Dana/Spicer 44 Offset Rear Axle
11″ Drum Brakes
Saginaw Steering Upgrade
Upgraded 11″ drum brakes
New Rear Seat and Driveshaft
New 31×9.5×15 AT Tires on 15×8 American Racing Outlaw II Wheels
The 4wd works well and easily goes in and out of 4 wheel and 2 wheel, and high and low. The transmission shifts well and has never popped out of gear on me. The engine is solid and one of the cleanest I’ve seen on the inside after having the intake and oil pan off. I did a casting number search on it to find out the build specs and year and it came from the factory with 275hp. With the addition of the carb, intake, HEI ignition, and headers it is pretty easily past 300hp now. “
UPDATE: Still Available. Now listed as a 1949.

“i have had the willys for a year or so. i was going to build a wheeler from and use the title and body for no smog purposes but after I took the body off I realized it was in damn good shape. I already have a cj7 so I figured i’d finish the restomod the previous owners started and sell it. it has passed many hands until mine, I would believe its been a garage kept project. i saw zero significant rust, and the frame was straight.
Huh? A tiled wall in the rear? That’s a new one! I don’t see anything that confirms this is a 1945 CJ-2A.
