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 .
UPDATE: Originally published March 27, 2015:
Interesting story from the St. Petersburg Times if accurate.
This is the last of the Jeep News issues from the 1970s and early 1980s that I have. I hope folks have found it somewhat interesting.

We’ve moved up our departure date to Sunday. Though we have a pretty good, but narrow band, of good weather on the way down, we are going to reduce our daily drive distances. While there will likely be an occasional post, I don’t plan on doing any type of daily diary like we have in the past, mostly to reduce my work load and because we don’t plan on doing anything all that interesting on our way. We expect it to be a rainy cold drive until we hit Arizona. Instead, I’ll repost some posts from earlier years.
UPDATE: Status Unknown. Was $14,700.
This looks like a nicely restored CJ-2A with PTO and winch.
“For Sale 1946 Willys CJ-2A, was acquired in 2009 is been restored with original parts.”
Jordan was sent additional pics of this one and confirmed it is a DJ-3A convertible that has had 4WD added. The windshield is definitely from a convertible.

Previous owner put a SBF 302 in it. Has a clean Kansas title.”

There are several Warn OD parts on eBay. Maybe some can use them.

“I have decided to sell my 47 CJ2A. I am the third owner. The second owned it since 1962. It has been sandblasted and primed. The frame is painted, new engine and trans mounts, all new brake system. Engine was rebuilt several years ago, but has only been driven 440 miles. The seats have been reupholstered. Includes soft top with frame and doors. It is complete, just needs paint and reassembly. It is located in Ellijay, GA, about 1 hour north of Atlanta. I will not sell parts. $7000.”
It runs and drives and has an overdrive. It does have some body rust.

This could be restored or turned into a racer. That cowl might be a little flat to property connect with a windshield (Bobcat bodies can have the problem, too .. .ask me how I know, lol). Plenty of value here.
