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 .
UPDATE: Price dropped to $12,000.

(05/10/2017) Listed as a ’46 in good condition, this has no engine. It does have a PTO with a rear gear box. I have to think that the exhaust pipe is just resting next to the passenger seat and not installed that way!

“I bought this Willy’s Jeep in 2006 in the hopes of restoring it when I retire, but I have more on my plate than I can do now. This Jeep was running shortly before I bought it, it needs a new starter and that is supposed to be all. I didn’t try and get it running as I was going to do a frame up restoration. The motor frame and transmission are all original. I do have brand need restoration/shop manuals that I will go with the jeep. It is located in Alamogordo, New Mexico right now.”
