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 might have a fiberglass body.

“Restoration Project! This is a 1948 Willys Jeep. (WWII) It comes with 3 motors and lots of extra original parts. See photos. Clear title. (Note: the white seats in the picture are not original parts, they are from a boat). This was a project my father started and he has since passed. Contact me with questions and I will do my best to answer them.”

“This Jeep has an engine from a 1953 Jeep, so it is not the original flathead. It runs good but the brakes are not working. The Jeep has spent all but the last few years in north Texas. It has some rust, as you’d expect. I bought it from a friend of mine and he threw in another motor, an engine block, and some other parts. I was planning to work on this, but I’ve not touched it in three years. It needs to go to someone who will give it the attention it needs.
I have the original title and many years of subsequent registration receipts. It’s a great window of history.”
Lacks an engine.
