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: **SOLD** Was for auction.
Josh spotted this auction. It takes place March 22-24, 2013. This is the Jade Tint Green/Glacier White color scheme. It is too bad the engine doesn’t look in better shape.
Pretty odd that the rest of it looks great bit it looks like the engine sat in a bath of saltwater.
Bob- agreed that is kind of strange. The wheels are all rusty too. I have to assume this Jeep was never restored, but who’s to say the motor was never out (and maybe painted?)
Anybody up on the pricing on these in this condition?? I think $20-30 is a bit ambitious without this being in great shape.
The green is the rarest, the blue is nicer, but the pink is still what the people want.

Interesting tidbits fo chrome here and there, noteably engine nuts, steps, windshield vent, oil filter lid, and the spacer for the tail light on the left.
Are we looking at original parts that someone dressed up?
No fan shroud, fan looks like a flex fan. The wheel rust would be typical for a full wheelcover equipped car, especially if the caps were always falling off and they decided to tighten the retainers.
The engine looks like I would expect for a rebuilt original that wasn’t painted, or an original someone pressure washed the paint off of, what little paint would have remained after 50 years. I haven’t seen much original paint survive this long except MAYBE the red remans Willys sold.
I will be watching this one closely to see what the current market is, I have a feeling we are looking at a 10K jeep especially given its lack of prominence in the auction listing. I’d much rather see it attain 20K but I have my doubts in today’s market.
Does anyone know if the firewall mounted ignition resistor is correct? Horn and relay are not, I assume.
