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 has the rear texas hunting seat mod.

Bobby just bought a nice 3B, so he’s selling this project.
“I had this jeep of mine running a few years ago and decided to go lighter in weight with the fiberglass body. The jeep is in pieces, I have all the parts, when this jeep was up and running it was running a modified 350 Chevy motor, 4 speed Muncie transmission, headers, Moroso racing heads, and dual four barrel manifold, custom built four core radiator. I have decided that this project must go. The jeep is not put together; I removed the heads from the motor and stored both of them in my basement. This project started a number of years ago and never got the attention required to complete it. Asking $3500.00 for everything, ”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2400.
This runs and drivers, but needs work of some kind.

Not the prettiest jeep, but it might have potential.
“Great for hunting, wheeling or cruising, I have been driving this rig for years and love it, just need to get rid of a few things. It has a 134 f-head 4 cyl, hence the hood scoop, motor was rebuilt a number of years ago but only has around 3000 miles on it, the transmission was rebuilt less then a year ago. New master cylinder and radiator. The soft top and doors are rough but still serve their purpose, have the original rims and a box of extra parts. Body is also a pretty rough but its a tank… Will climb anything its pointed at. Its always been very dependable and never left me stranded. Also has a tow bar and the Glass is good. ”

(04/08/2013) This looks good. The dash looks earlier than 1956, yet this lacks the driver’s side gas filler.

(05/07/2013) I never thought I’d seen another pair of folding chair seats in a jeep. Here’s the last set we saw.
