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 .

The reason for the sale is sad, but it isn’t a great restoration.

Walter spotted this one. What’s that in the dash in the right side of the third picture.
“1948 Willys jeep that has a solid drivetrain: runs great, shifts great, easily goes into and out of 4wd, as well as hi/lo range. The body is very fixable with the usual areas being rusty. I have a good NC title in hand”
This needs brakes. Looks solid otherwise.
“1946 Willys CJ-2A—-$2,500.00 O.B.O.
This Jeep has the original flat head 4 cylinder engine that has been converted to 12 V. The engine runs great. This Jeep has all the original drive train and the 4-wheel drive works great. This Jeep has super low gears and a manual transmission. This is a great project Jeep and will be perfect for a Jeep lover like me. I have too many projects and not enough time and money. The only problem with this Jeep is the brakes. I took it out of the garage this year and the brakes had lost pressure. It seems like the brakes need to be bled or maybe a master cylinder. This is the first model C.J. after WWII. Your dad has been wanting one of these since he was a kid. You can get it for him just in time for Christmas. Call Taylor at 801-808-2181. O.B.O. ”
