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 .

Bob reports that this year’s Northern Ohio Flatfender Gathering was a success. He writes, “We had 24 Willys Jeeps this year. It was a great time and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. Next year we may simplify the food, add windshield tags that kind of thing. The rain held off until 3:45!”
Here are a few pictures from the event. You can see them all here:

Somehow, my search results yielded an ad in Japan. The jeep images look like the intermountain west, probably Colorado if I had to guess (based on the license plate).
“I have a 1945 military Ford GPW Jeep for sale. All in original condition with original 6volt battery. It still runs good. I have the title and all the document, however, you will have to take care of all the registration matter in Japan if you want to drive it. Also the buyer will have to pay for the shipping. THIS VEHICLE IS VERY RARE especially in this condition. please email me your contact phone number and convenient time for me to give you a call.”

(08/19/2011) Not perfectly stock, but perfectly nice.
“This is a beautiful Jeep Completly restored. Engine and drivetrain has been rebuilt with all new parts. The best way to describe this vehicle is better than new condition, It didnt roll off the line in 48 this nice! Every single part that could be replaced on this Jeep has been replaced. I’m posting this for my grandpa who spent 13 years on this project. The end project was so nice he didn’t want to drive it, That being the reason for only having 60 miles on it. All the mechanical work was done by a professional mechanic, same goes for the body work. The underbody is coated with paint matching truck bed liner. Shocks, brake componets, bearings, rims, tires, radiator everything on it is new. If your a serious buyer please call James at (989) 793-4857 and he can go over everything in detail with you, Like I said I’m listing for my grandpa. I can get an answer for you if you prefer email.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $700.

This past January Bob took pictures of this jeep parked coldly in the snow. It looks like it was ready for a trip, but then got stuck. Thanks for sharing Bob.
Buz spotted this one. Note the Jeeplike vehicle for auction in the first image. Check out all the items here: http://www.quarricks.com/Thumb.htm
According to the website, the auction will be held October 1, 2011 at 268 Edison Street, Uniontown, PA.

UPDATE: Back on eBay. Colin exchanged emails with the seller and learned this is a very early DJ-3A, as it is the 92nd DJ3A built in late 1955.
This is a nice DJ-3A that was found on the CJ-3B Page.
“Nice clean jeep. No rust… Been in the family scenes the mid 60s . All stock 4cyl rebuilt with only @ 100 miles on it. 3-speed transmission on the column. This Jeep is stock all but tail lights and air cleaner, which I have both to include in sale… 2 Wheel drive…. Great for around town to the post office and back. Hate to let it go must move on…”
It’s a project.
“1947 Jeep CJ2A. My son & I were going to build this Jeep, but, decided on a CJ7 instead. We got it running last year, clutch is good, drove it around the yard & gears all work. Frame is very good, body is better than average. We decided on the CJ7 because top speed on the CJ2 is around 40mph. This is a good winter project for someone. $1,300 207 450 6184”
