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 got an F-head. Body looks good.

This might be a good price.
“Alas, I realize that I am never gonna do anything with “The General”. Time to let it go.
It runs well, and drives OK, but needs TLC. Worst issue at the moment is a hole in the top from a falling tree last winter, but rust in spots, and many layers of patches and paint. Artistic, almost. Mostly original except for a 12V conversion, and an aftermarket plastic gas tank. $1000, and you can drive it home. (If you’re not in a hurry to get there 🙂
Best way to reach me is via email, but you can try my home phone: 719 481-4262. Ignore the greeting, but do leave a message. Will post some fotos later today.
Here come fotos. That stack of steel wheels go with it, as do the doors. There is also a box of misc new stuff; some ignition parts, some seals and bearings, maybe a tie-rod end, and an electric fuel pump. And I neglected to get fotos of it, but there is a home-made spare tire/jerrycan rack for the back, and I think a couple cans for it. No guarantee on the jerrycans usefulness, if I can even find ’em. I also have a couple service manuals for it.
Steve”

This is a project. It looks like the frame and running gear are post 1972 CJ-5.
“Project vehicle. Does not run. I’ll never get to this project. Was thinking I would find a running cj5 and swap this body onto it since the current frame has been cut/welded, etc. The body has been cut and welded a fair amount too on the floor pans/firewall/etc. Nice top and very little surface rust!
CJ5 frame, axles, Dauntless v6 engine with Willys CJ2A or CJ3A body.
Reply by e-mail if interested. I check e-mail in the evenings.
Would consider trading for a complete running LS1 or LS2 or possibly a rebuilt Inline 250/292”

“Two 1948 Willy’s Jeeps. One is a CJ2 the other is the military jeep. The CJ is more complete than the military one. Between the two should be able to make one work.

Price is OBO, I know they are rough, but to the right person they could run again or be great for original parts. I am looking for 4bt cummins motor or 12 valve cummins if you’d like to trade.”
