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 for sale a 1952 Willy’s Jeep. It was restored about 10 years ago and still looks great. You can see in the pictures the paint is great and the top looks almost new. It has been modified and a GM V-6 engine was installed. It still has the manual 3 speed transmission and front and rear axles. It has front disk brakes and stops great. As you can see it has 60 Chevy truck tail lights, dual exhaust, and a roll bar and seat belts has been installed. The interior looks great and has a center console which is a good place to mount a radio of your choice. I drove the Willy’s to the cruise-in at Northern Tools in Burlington last Saturday evening and this little Willy’s ran great and will draw lots of attention. Even though the seats look great I have another complete set of seat covers that will go with the sale. Also included is a Bikini top that has never been installed on the Jeep. This Willy’s is a outstanding driver but with a little detail could be made into a show car. I am retired and can be reached most of the time by phone or email but please NO txt as I do not answer txt.”

Mike added the following information about this flattie: I live close by to this Jeep and know the owner. He has a full page of mechanical work, body and paint, all completed in 2012. He is retired and has replaced this one with a Wrangler. It runs great, looks great, mostly original. PTO, winch, period style heater, comes with a nice soft top. I missed buying it because I was about halfway done with mine before I saw this one.
“Restored to present condition including paint and mechanical in 2012. This is a nice daily driver quality Jeep. ”
