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 .

Fresh Turbo 400 trans brake and stall converter, with a slap shifter.. Dana 20 xfer case attached to a Tom Woods drive shaft. Built Ford 9″ rear end. Front is a Dana 25 and it works.

It’s a project.
“1953 Willys Jeep CJ-3B. Great Project Vehicle. I cannot complete because of my work schedule. The pictures are of the day I brought it home. Since then I have removed
the Koenig metal top, hood, windshield, fenders, radiator and grille. I have the stock engine on an engine stand. The engine was running when removed from another Jeep. The transmission, transfer case and axles are still mounted. The Body pan is pretty solid, with some surface rust and floor pan repairs needed. The Meters and heater equipment I have stored in my garage. I have a 12volt alternator and Original oil bath type air filter. I have purchased replacement right hand lug studs and nuts to replace the left hand original and old right hand ones. I also have some new replacement brake parts. The metal doors to match the top are not in the photos but I have them.
I am interested in selling the whole package but would entertain other offers. Would like to get $1500.00 cash for the whole package but will consider cash plus shooting sports equipment. Make me an offer. Email me and I will respond. Thanks!”
