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 .

“Hi, inherited my father’s 1963 CJ3B High Hood Jeep.
It has an honest 70XXX miles on it.
Dad never washed it after taking elk hunting for several years and it was badly rusted.
I got a new body – stamped from the original dies, I think it was made in the Philippines.
I had it professionally mounted and painted in the original baby blue. The shop that did to work did an excellent job of transferring every single little piece over. If you did not know, It looks absolutely original.
I started to fix it up and life changed. It continues to change and I think the smart move is to let it go.
A vehicle is a tough thing to hang onto for sentimental reasons.
It has not been started since about 2004. It’s sitting on flat tires, the seats are totally shot. The top is old but in very good shape.
It is sort of buried in the garage, except I never ever set stuff on it – or even leaned anything against the new ( now well cured from 2004 ish) paint.
If your a serious possible buyer, please let me know. I can help you get it out if we go forward.
Because of how it is in the garage, it would be nearly impossible to get pictures. Don’t ask.
Just reply if you’re seriously interested. Low ball bullshit will be ignored”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(07/10/2020) This could be any one of several jeep models. No pics provided.
