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 .

It’s rough, but runs.

It has a 307 sb chevy, crane roller rockers, Edelbrock intake, carter afb carb, 3 speed original trans, original twin stick t-case, she is ruff, but with some love could be a cool rig. Or leave her as a rat. I have the hood, spare fender and a set of new warn hubs that go with it. 4×4 works good, front axle has a Lincoln locker, rear has some sort of limited slip. She is a handful! Not for the faint of heart. I don’t have the pink slip, BOS only. She is out of DMV’s system. I’m up for trade/partial trade, dana 60 front axles(SRW), bbc/sbc blower parts (671-871), drag boat parts(whirl-away for casale) v-drive stuff, side by side (utv) nv4500,5600 trans, Harley basket case ( no sportsters), etc”

“Jeep is currently in need of the body being put back on. Tore the body off to fix frame horns and clean up the frame. When I tore it down it ran like a top and was on the road. The only things wrong at the time were a very small leak on the side of the brake cylinder which I think was just a loose line being that all the lines are new, the line couldn’t be tightened with the body on so I did it when I took it off and haven’t tested it yet. I have the original steel body that is ok but needs work and a fiberglass body that can be run the way it is buy could use some freshening. It comes with many extra parts and all of the stuff you will need to put it back together. Don’t really want to get rid of it but could use the room in the garage.”
