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 have a 1964 Jeep Willy’s CJ3B for sale. It is in good condition for its age. It does need some TLC to get in running condition. It has been in storage for the last 2 years, engine turns over but will not start. I believe the fuel pump needs to be rebuilt or replaced. Prior to it being put in storage it ran fine. a new fuel pump and replace the break lines and it should be ready to roll.”

(04/16/2015) This formerly had a diesel engine.
“This is a clean Jeep built in 1965 by Mitsubishi under license by Kaiser Jeep Corp. These are rare, but well made. They have a higher hood. This one has a PTO driven Ramsey winch in front. It has an odd fire 3.8 GM V-6- which means high torque. Runs great! It is also equipped with a mechanical air compressor driven off the engine. Has a CB radio. Good Rubber. Roll bar. Exhaust has shorties. No rust anywhere. This came out of southern AZ. We built a tow bar for it, so it will be ready to tow to the high country and hit the trails. Great Hunting Jeep. Unit is street legal.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $850.
Has some parts value.
“Picked this up the other day, I buy a lot of Jeeps and couldn’t pass up the deal. I intended to use it as a little yard Jeep but I am in the process of moving to a new shop and starting a business in the next couple of months and realize that I do not want to have to move this to the new shop and it is just taking up space now and will be for the foreseeable future.
It has no vin plates, but is an early 50s CJ-3B Willys. I have no title. Most of it is there, engine, trans, tcase, axles. It rolls, but does not run. The engine is seized but might break free with a good soaking. I have some oil down in the cylinders for the last couple of days. Has the Hurricane 4-cyl and the T90 3-spd transmission. Radiator and some parts are missing off of it, but it is a pretty good solid project.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8500.
Looks like a solid ex-club jeep.

“Up for sale is my military style 1960 Willys Jeep. Seems to have the older and more reliable motor in it (older than 1960). Is this the Willys Go Devil engine? Can someone help me identify correctly? I took it down the road but would suggest towing it home to check out systems. I have many photos and can take more if you need. This is a black plate car and is currently registered. No back registration to have to pay(a definite plus). Text if you have questions. Won’t be around long. Comes with some parts and FRONT PASSENGER SEAT, in good condition(matches other one)plus spare tire. Front passenger tire has slow leak and might need to be remounted. I would like to keep the roll bar, so if you want the roll bar, it is sold separately. “l

“This Jeep has been in my family since it was bought new in 1953 and has never been out of Buncombe county. Used mostly around the farm, but has been babied its whole life. My parents had 5 Willys Jeeps around the farm and this was the one my mother had for “bad weather” but never really got used for much more than that. Has been kept inside its entire life and runs well. Transmission and transfer case shifts smoothly and the 4wd works as it should. I recently had it repainted and have put on all new brake shoes, wheel cylinders, brakes lines, and master cylinder. It has a new top, but it isn’t made for this exact model. It will keep you dry or out of the sun, but its just a little too wide for this model Jeep. If you have any questions or are interested in coming by to see it, “
