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 .
Looks like a vintage build with some fun art on the back. Is that a brake lever in the center (chrome, bent, and pointed to the front?

“Jeep CJ7 on Mattracks custom built to pull a fish house through almost anything. I am the second owner. Here is the description from the first owner who built it: I bought a late model jeep cj 7 frame with drive line from a friend. Put the 350 short block, differentials, and 4 speed trans in to this one. Plus a new power steering pump and built the cab. Bought a factory remanufactured engine from Dave Mosney Auto north of DL . The drive line is in real great shape. The trans and differentials had very few miles on them. I was very impressed with the performance of the whole rig. This jeep is a year around toy that is comfortable, warm, great clearance, powerful, super traction.” It has some patina but runs extremely well. Tracks are in great shape. Also comes with a set of tires. ”

“1951 clean CJ 3a. 2nd owner, title in hand.”
This CJ-3A includes a rear PTO and gearbox. The body and front clip look in exceptional shape. It looks like the PTO bar has been cut down a little? It also looks like there is/was some kind of nest in front of the radiator?

“I don’t know what I have here, but this is for sale. The title says 1951 Jeep. This belonged to a friend of mine who was storing it on my property, until he passed away last August. It was running when he pulled the carburetor for a rebuild, but never had a chance to finish. I have the carburetor but there is no key. If you have questions please ask and I’ll do my best to answer or post more pictures. Hoping someone here can shed some light and make a honest assessment and reasonable offer. The Jeep has a clear Montana title and is located in Central California.”
