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 .

https://springfield.craigslist.org/cto/d/1948-cj-2a-willys-overland/6712786591.html
“’48 CJ-2A painted to look military. I bought in the early spring of 2017 with delusions of restoring it but realize I will never get around to it. It originated in SE Missouri as most likely an agricultural implement. The Good = runs and drives great. Original straight 4 cylinder L134 Go Devil engine and 3 speed transmission with overdrive. 4WD works great and she’d climb a tree if you were inclined. Rebuilt the master cylinder and replaced the light control switch. I have the windshield and the tow-bar for the front too. Garage kept. Clean and clear title. The Not so Good = hard to start and ether addicted…its destined for a new or rebuilt carb. Brakes still need to be bled (PS rear valve is busted). Tub is pretty rusty in the bed. Windshield has broken glass on the driver’s side. Overall: Old gal is a mechanically sound project vehicle with some appearance flaws. ”
Probably value here.

This might have a slightly modified Porter & Reed hardtop, but I’m not certain of that.
“1948 Willy’s Jeep CJ2A. Have clear title. Disassembled but have all parts. Steel hard top. Frame and main parts stored in a storage container. Body is solid but ruff. Frame is good, axles, transfer, tranny engine are in good shape.”
Price looks good. It’s siting next to a CJ-2A chassis, so the top might be earlier than that.

The hard top is in rough shape as are the doors that go with it but savable. We found this in a barn in Washington years ago and he plans on restoring it. Our change of plans can be your gain. Asking $3000 obo”
No updates Monday.
Karson and his girlfriend Mariah are visiting Seattle, so I took them on a short drive in Patterson. Karson wanted to drive, and though he’d never driven a stick, let alone a column shift, he gave it a try. He only stalled it once (though we never got out of first gear).
This one was on eBay. I thought I would win it on Sunday, but someone outbid me at the last minute. Anyone have an electronic scan of the folded-out page? I’d like to use it to make another poster similar to last year’s poster.
That Landing Craft Retriever looks like a real-life transformer!
View all the information on eBay
“1957 Press Photo Fort Story, Virginia-An Army landing craft retriever and Jeep. This is an original press photo. Fort Story, Virginia-The Army’s conventional “jeep” squeezes over to the side of the road to make room for a new landing craft retriever. Weighing 101 tons, the LCR is 75 feet long, 38 feet wide and 23 feet high. It is used by the Army to repair over-turned or beached landing craft. It can drive over the craft and lift it for re-floating or repair, much like vehicles utilized in lumber yards. (US Army-ships-boats & crafts) Photo measures 9 x 7.25 inches. Photo is dated 05-07-1957.”
