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 .

“I currently do not have all the information for this truck or the other Jeep that my Father is selling. I will be getting more information on it as I get it from him, but he is currently out of town and doesn’t have the Miles on the truck.
The story is, my father and I purchased 7 CJ jeeps and restored them or are in the process of doing so. Once I restored mine, I moved on, but he kept restoring the others. He is looking to get the amount of money that he has in them. Not to make a business out of this and make a huge profit. They are taking up space in his garages and he has purchased more projects. So keep these on the road and have some fun.
The truck runs and was painted by a professional. Since he has so many of them, they were all restored with the correct parts from Jeep dealers, mainly Walck and Kieser.
This doesn’t run and has some rust.

“Asking $19,000 OBO This Jeep will climb up a tree Only 60 miles driven since restoration”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $499.
Not sure how much value is here.
“no title.
Rolling Chasis – no motor or trans, or transfer case.
It has both front and rear diffs. No Windshield. Solid frame, rusty body , but I think savable.
I bought this and want to make something cool out of it, but recognize I won’t have time to get to it for at least a year and I am paying $40 per month in storage fees. So it is with a heavy heart that I put it for sale at a reasonable price hoping someone else has the time to do this rig some justice.
Price JUST reduced to only $499 – not one penny less! Located in the Largo Florida area.”
Has a set of Cutlass PowerLock hubs, along with a heavy duty front bumper.
