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 .

Looks solid. The ignition isn’t in the middle of the dash. That and the lack of bow holders could mean it is a CJ-3A body.

The seller does make some unusual claims . . . I think the ORIGINAL fiberglass fenders might just be my favorite comment. Though, his claim that you are buying a running vehicle that doesn’t run is a close second.
“Here is a 1951 CJ2A SUPER RARE FIND Jeep Wrangler. It has a V8. The Jeep has Minimal rust as it was in storage for MANNNNNYYYYY Years. It has fiberglass hood & flatfenders (original to this model). The Jeep has all the seating and is black interior. Comes with a bikini top only and no doors…(as they were not factory to this era (Korean War era). I have owned it only a short time and just don’t have the time or money to put into it. I have never started or turned it over but last owner swore up and down he drove it all the time and runs fine. The U bolts need replaced on the front end ( I HAVE NEW). Jeep is metallic blue. I need the garage space so the build I planned to do has to go. Keep in mind EVERY thing you do to this HISTORICAL vehicle makes it worth more and more. This is an extremely RARE opportunity to have such a clean machine that runs to start whatever type of project you want out of it or make a daily summer driver/toy. ”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $6975.
(11/01/2015) Has lots of diamond plating and a fiberglass body.
