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 .

“1962 Willys CJ3B Jeep equipped with an early edition Fisher Snowplow. The plow tag reads “CAMDEN, Maine” rather than “Rockland, Maine” . This complete Jeep I used many years ago to plow, has sat neglected in my storage lot as a parts backup for my other CJ3B which recently sold. No parts were removed, but has not been started in 5 years. The body has much rust, the motor ran and drivetrain worked OK. NO BRAKES!! A very hard-to-find Jeep HY-LO hydraulic pump is used to lift the plow. If you are looking for a complete, very stock, high hood CJ3B, bring a trailer and winch, I need it gone. I can deliver, finance, maybe partial trade Willys, Aero, Mercury, Power King, Car Trailer, Hunting Item, or Try Me. Email for details or phone contact.”

T90/ Rebuilt D18 Drivetrain.
D25/D44 5.38:1 Gear Ratio
Jeep is originally from California….I know this because I bought it out of an old ladies garage in California and shipped it back to Mass.
Clean Title in Hand.
Recent additions include a Walcks Wiring Harness, New Gauges (12V), battery, cap and rotor. Solex Carb, Distributor, Coil.

Needs minor things to be perfect, like hooking up the speedo cable and plumbing the oil pressure gauge.
Brakes were recently gone through and adjusted, which means it’ll actually stop!
I’m asking what I’m asking for the Jeep. It’s old, it’s slow, it’s got dings. All of these things are fantastic attributes, and because I own it, I get to enjoy them! If you buy it, you’ll know how amazing it feels to be holding up traffic while you enjoy a day in a Willys Jeep”
