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 .

This jeep has been modified with a truck bed. It’s listed as a 1958, so maybe it was originally a DJ-3A or maybe it is a modified CJ-3B or CJ-5.

“It’s 1953 willys. Engine runs no major issues. I have a new pair of bucket seat for you. It’s none op and no back fee.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000.
There may be some value here, but the rear of the body is rough.
“This Jeep has been in my family since the early 70’s. It was my grandfather’s and was used as a hunting rig for many years in Oregon. After he passed it sat at my dads place for a long time always with the intention of getting it running again. Well next thing you know 25years passed and the rust takes over. This would be a fun project Jeep, or a good Parts jeep or if you just want to use the tub to have a titled buggy. Clean Oregon title in hand. I can deliver within 50 miles of Lincoln.”
UPDATE: UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $12,800.

“1947 CJ2A Jeep for sale. It is the civilian model with the original L-head 4 cylinder type engine and 4 wheel drive 3 speed transmission. It has had a fairly recent restoration to include a motor overhaul, and it runs, drives, and shifts well. The tires are excellent, the interior seats are recovered, and the top is almost new ($950). Also the electrical system is 12 volt and has an alternator. Currently titled in Texas in my name as an antique vehicle, and ready for you to go play! Would be a perfect vehicle to own in a coastal setting or ranch. Located in Conroe Tx and available to view most days.”
