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 Christmas time in Canada when Lawrence dresses up himself, his dogs and his automobiles to deliver Christmas presents. This year there’s a new addition to the group: a beautiful FC-150. The native red of the FC just seems perfect this time of year.
Leigh forwarded this photo of a jeep from the Gippsland Vehicle Collection in Maffra, Australia. It doesn’t appear to be 100% correct restoration, but certainly looks in great shape. Photobombing to the left appears to be a Jeepster Commando.
This collection of motor cars is changed two to three times a year to keep the museum interesting. So, there’s not guarantee this jeep will be there during your visit.
Marc found this interesting photo. The caption explains that a nurse is handing out a pill to help prevent colds. Anyone know what the pills might be?
The information reads: FATAL TO FLU — A pill a day keeps the flu away! That’s the theory behind a cold-prevention campaign now being carried on among workers at Willys-Overland Motors, where the use of special immunization tablets have reduce colds by 80 percent and checked absenteeism. Here, a plant nurse passes the tablets out among “Jeep” girls on the company’s assembly line.

This looks like a neat old toy.
“From warehouse find: super nice and now rare sturdy tinplate Fire Brigade Jeep with trailer.
The toy is completely made of thick tinplate, except for the figures, fire hose and ladders. It has a total length of 10½” (270 mm).
The toy was made by the small firm of Joyax of France, between 1953 and 1978.
The toy is in mint condition but has some minimal production traces.
It has a classic wire spring mechanism and in it comes in its absolutely stunning box. Please check the 4th picture where you can see that the manufacturer used recycled tin to produce these toys. The part of the text visible relates to a battery ;)”

It’s part of a moving sale. No description provided. Looks like it’s in good shape.
“1949 Willys Old Coke Machine on Car from Coney Island last survivor”

The price is for both. The CJ-2A has a MB/GPW body.
“Hi. I’m selling my 1946 jeep willys. Not running but complete. And a 1978 Jeep CJ5 that runs but needs minor body work and a Fuel tank. I am asking $6500 for the both but would rather trade for 1997-2002 Jeep Wrangler. Must run as it will be my daily driver.”
The seller notes that though the body looks a little rough, it’s not all rusted out.
“For sale a 1948 Willys CJ2A NO TITLE engine spins over have not heard it run yet. Body is in fair to poor shape does have four original 16 inch wheels. Trans does not move from neutral.”
