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 .
Haven’t seen one of these for sale in a while. No mention of the mower parts.

This has a replacement body. It’s missing the CJ-3A frame grille supports; instead it looks like it has the holes for the M-38 setup.

(05/18/2019) Ran when parked … Looks to have Cutlas power lock hubs. I believe that’s a Kelly hardtop.

Carlos Torres opened a mobile coffee stand in London using a CJ-3B that he rebuilt into a mobile coffee stand like those he’d seen in his native Colombia. He also offers tailor-made “Colombian Experience” packages where he’ll provide the mobile coffee jeep plus salsa dancers, live music, and more. If you are in London, make sure to hunt down his jeep and get a proper cup of Colombian coffee! You can learn more at these links:
Ann’s cousin’s name is Shelby, named for Carroll Shelby. Apparently, they are distant cousins. Yesterday, Shelby (the cousin) made a reference to a new movie trailer, Ford Vs. Ferrari, on Facebook. So, I checked out the trailer ….
I was never a big car guy and never knew much about Shelby (neither the cars nor the designer), but after watching the trailer, I thought the movie could be a good one.
At the trailer’s end, youtube automatically flipped to another video. It just happened to be a video of Carroll Shelby in his own words. It it he very succinctly explains his life, including the period captured by the movie when he was asked to build turn a “mom’s car” into a sports car. It’s twenty-two minutes, but worth a view in my opinion.
Ted shared a couple pics of his CJ-2A with a boom/rear winch assembly.
“Did a major yard cleanup — scrap iron haul after a dreary wet flooded basement winter here. The freezer is a 1948 IH that I hauled out of my basement with the boom and rear winch setup. Worked well except the damn freezer weighed a lot and had the front of the Jeep teetering a bit once out in yard on uneven ground. Gonna have to put a little counter weight out front next time!! Works great and is a big help around the yard picking stuff up pulling motors, and body’s etc. That 46 is my wheeler/yard Jeep with four speed, original flat head, overdrive, rear pto winch and old school warn front winch. Crawl ratio with the 5:38s and four speed is about 95 to one; Painfully slow on road but off road it’s unstoppable.”
Looks in good shape. There appear to be some floor patches.

“1952 Willys Jeep with extra parts. Drive it home!
The good:
-Drives great. So great that I used it for a daily driver.
-Engine was rebuilt 10,000 miles ago by a professional shop. Have records to show.
– carburetor freshly rebuilt
– New tie rods and ends
-New points and condenser
-New wires and plugs as of last fall.
-New Battery this spring.
-New Fuel Pump
-Tires have less than 2000 miles on them.
-Has overdrive (4th gear for highway)
– Comes with three soft tops.
– Includes a ton of extra parts from a donor jeep, and a couple new parts that I have not yet gotten around to install.
-New and vintage parts are super easy to come by if you ever need them. cheap too!
The bad:
-Needs new rear brake shoes/ drums installed. (Parts included)
– Has rust
-Engine runs too rich but it’s not the carburetor. Thinking it has to be either the distributor, or the valves need adjustment.
I can send you my phone number if you email me. But due to spammers I no longer post it openly on CL.
Thank you!!!”

This looks like it could be a Traveller to me. It’s listed as a 1968. There’s no title.
“Interior in good condition, original seats, without title, has V8”
Has a few bubbifications.

“1946 CJ2 Willy’s 4×4 rebuilt whole drivetrain-2 sets rims-tow bar-tires good-runs drives good-Best Top $5000 firm”
This looks like one of the Acme or Brian Chuchua tubs. It’s a light tub, but surprisingly sturdy.
https://easttexas.craigslist.org/pts/d/mineola-cj2a-jeep-willys-fiberglass/6902004779.html
“I bought this tub and no longer have the Jeep it was going on. It is brand new with no holes. It’s for a Willy’s CJ2A but you could use it on other models. Comes with a new fiberglass hood. Absolutely NO TRADES. Serious CASH offered considered but if you know anything about these you know a new one is at least $2,000.”
