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 .
No data plate or title to confirm year and model.

“World war 2, trailer, no data plate so may be a M100 made to look like a bantam, but set up for ww2 jeep with correct lights, tires and plug. New tires and canvas. No title will provide bill of sale. May take other willys parts or jeeps in trade?”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.
Will need some body repair.
“I am selling a Very Early Production (rare) CJ2A Column Shift. I bought this with the intent to restore it. Well, we are moving and i don’t have the time or the money. It is in great shape, but has rust in the bottom of the tool box under the passenger seat where most Willys rust. The Body, Frame & Transmission are all original, numbers matching, however the engine is out of a later model, and has a crack in the block below the distributor that needs to be welding up.”
Not sure how much value is here. Includes a hardtop.

https://cnj.craigslist.org/cto/d/1946-willys-jeep-4×4-3-speed/6519385445.html
(03/07/2018) “Was told this was a 1946 Willys Jeep, I know its a Willys , what I am unsure of is the year, the drivetrain is complete, both original rears, are in it, as well as original rims, it rolls, this little Jeep has a 3 speed on the column, and the two shifters on the floor, for high and low, and for 4 wheel drive.
There is not title, selling for parts or restore?,, it rolls for loading, there are no other parts, what you see in the pictures is what is there.
Located in Central NJ. again there is no title, it was lost.
This could be a 1945, 1946, or a 1947, there is a number on the engine block.
According to some Jeep guys that emailed this is a rare 1946 Jeep, as it is a stick on the column, only made one year, well we know its not a 1949.”
Includes engine/tranny/tc.

No updates today. Next updates Sunday. This weekend is the FC Roundup. Craig Brockhaus took this photo. Looks like a good turnout for Friday so far!
UPDATE: The 4-page brochure doesn’t include a DJ-5 or 6, because they didn’t arrive until 1965 (thanks Colin). This may have been produced in March of 1961. International Harvester released their own 40+-page review of the Scout vs. the Jeep a month later. Coincidence?
I scooped this brochure off of eBay. Not the back page the brochure shows the “World’s Most Convertible Vehicles”, yet one of the two DJ-3As pictured has a top. Instead, why not include a DJ-5 or 6?
The seller has several of these available. They are 6 5/16ths” Wide by 2 1/2″ High.

(02/27/2018) This looks to have an M-201 windshield, except it shouldn’t have the bolt plate over the vent. Hmm.
