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 purchased this Toledo Built 1942 Willys CJ-2A several years ago with the intent to rebuild it. However, my eyes were bigger than my stomach, and after realizing the time and energy required for such an extensive rebuild (and getting married), I have decided to part with it. If you have any questions, please call or text. I would be happy to have you come and see it. All major components are present (Hood, Windshield, Tailgate, Fenders, Engine, Transmission, Transfer Case, Axles, etc.) as well as four matching wheels (front wheel removed during initial attempt at disassembly) and ID plate. Somewhat flexible on price, I just want to make sure it’s used for a good purpose.”
