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: Here’s the latest link for this event: http://www.oregonpva.org/2019-raffle-vehicle.html
TJ shared the news that a modified 1946 CJ-2A will be raffled in August of 2019 to raise money for the Oregon Chapter of the Paralyzed Veterans of American. I’m not sure when the tickets will go on sale, but I’ll try to give an update when they do. (The 2018 Raffle vehicle was a 1959 Chevy Truck).
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.
Oh my. Great price! Looks like Patterson’s doppleganger. I wonder if it includes a convertible top?

“This Jeep will turn over but won’t start. That being said it doesn’t have a battery. It’s a 4 cylinder GM, manual transmission.Axles are Dana 30 locker in the front, and a 44 in the rear. Think they’re 5.5 on 5. Perfect for a V8 Swap!Body is rough, it’s OLD. NO SCAMS!”
Something odd has been done with that body. Looks like it had cancer at some point, as that body has been modified. Note the gauge placements on the dash.

“I have for sale a 1947 Willys CJ 2A that has been owned by our hunting club since 1959. We have a paper title and was donated to the club by a previous member. It was used to drive and the property. We have decided that it is time to sell it to someone looking for a old Willys. It runs and drives. Has the original 6 volt electrical system. No canvas. The original motor was replaced by the club member that owned it, but he has passed away many years ago so that is all we know. Axle numbers match, but engine numbers do not. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or arrange to look it over. There is some damage on the back passenger side wheel well, other than that the tub is in fine shape for it’s age.”
The PNW4WDA racing year is almost over. Here are a couple videos from past years. The first is a great overhead view of some the tracks, which are changed slightly for every race.
Here are a few clips from the 2017 season.
A couple days ago someone asked about the difference between a long bed and a regular truck bed. I’ve never heard of there being too sizes of truck beds. The standard size is 79″ or 80″. However, someone measured their bed at 88″. I am awaiting a remeasursement, but until then, has anyone heard of large beds (either factor or aftermarket)?
The bed below reminded me of the question, which is why I’ve listed it (though it looks pretty rough).

Located along old Route 66.
“Selling For my father in-law, He has owned it since the late 70’s. Still has the old flathead 4 in it that runs as you can see by the fan in the motor pic. All factory except for the turn signals.

Fuel pump and water pump replaced to get it running again. Does need restoration, but is solid. Comes with new set of plug and wires.

Has a rear PTO.

Travis shared this odd-bodied jeep. Is that a cut down 3A windshield?
“custom body on a frame off rebuild about 10yrs old. motor completely done, as well as suspension drive train etc. body is extremely strong. made of 1/8 inch plate steel. undercoated. jeep could use a bath and a little tlc and maybe some camo paint. 3 way plow included. registered and inspected–runs and drives good. tranny has a chipped tooth in 1st and reverse gear still drives ok but you will hear a clicking sound other than that this thing is a tank. it will go anywhere. strong and dependable. we are moving and can not take with us.”
