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 .
Unclear why the hood was cut, as the engine looks original.

(09/01/2011) Is it just me or does the rear wheel well combined with the hood make it look MLWish? It’s likely all custom though.

“I am looking for a good home for a very nice stock 3A. I bought the jeep in 2006 and since then I have replaced a lot of parts to make the jeep a safe driver and reliable. The jeep IS NOT perfect, but is very solid and drives great. It is basically a bone stock jeep except the generator is a 12 volt not a 6 volt. I also have an extra body and windshield plus a bunch of extra parts that go with the jeep. In full disclosure the previous owner repaired the passenger side rear quarter panel. He did a decent job and it is structurally fine but it is definitely not perfect. I bought the extra body for the purpose of correcting what the previous owner did. If you are interested give me a call and we can talk jeeps and I can give you all the details hard core flat top lovers love to talk about.”
The jeep appears to have a replacement body.

“I have a 1951 willies jeep it is the shortest jeep made. It has a Chevy 350 engine in it that was rebuilt not sure on the exact mileage but the miles are low It has a spool in the rear end The body is in fair shape given its age The previous own wanted to get rid of tail gate to give it a smoother look a used a lot of bondo so the bondo is chipping off It had the original trany and t- case behind the 350 motor and ended up cracking the housing So I found a 4 speed trany and a t- case for a Chevy 350 to put in it Just need to put it in have some drivelines made and give it a tune up and it will run I’m asking 3000 obo. This is a great project and dont think it will last long Also have half doors”
