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 .
This could be worth a look.

“Restored, must sell, please call for details, no texts, (805) 317- three one 22”

(01/11/2023) This is an odd one. It’s listed as a 1967, but looks to be early 50s.

“1967 Jeep Willys Dragon. Great for someone who likes projects. I do not have more pictures and I am unable to get them due to not having immediate access.. if you want to see it you can make an appointment and my husband can meet you. Bought it as a project but I don’t have the time or money to put into it. Does not have an engine in it.. no title only bill of sale. I also bought an Diesel engine that has the transmission which I was going to adapt to the Jeep. But ended up not doing it. Selling separately Jeep selling for $3,500 Engine with transmission selling for $2,500”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(09/19/2022) This might have a VEC body.

This is a different take on the DJ-5.

UPDATE: Dwayne posted some more pics of his truck on Facebook. You can see them below:
This image was posted a few days ago by Dwayne Brown. I am guessing the the back bed is a modified wagon back? It reminds me a little of the “Tender” wagons. Looks like a great rig!

UPDATE: **Sold** was $1900.
This appears to be a truck with the rear sides of a wagon modified into a rear bed. It’s something a little different.
“1959 Willys, Jeep, 2WD, Custom made fleet side bed, No front fenders, No seat, Custom bumpers, Center line wheels, new tires but older. V8 318, AT, dodge rearend, motor and trans are good but not running now. Good start on Rat Rod project, Hot Rod, pickup, truck. $1900.00 OBO,”

“Up for grabs is my 1956 Jeep Willy. This beast is powered by a Detroit 4-53T also known as a “Screaming Jimmy” it’s a turbo’d and supercharged inline 4 two stroke paired with a beefy 4 speed manual transmission. Perfect for towing around other hot rods or rat rods. Truck is on 37’ tires and sits on a reinforced C10 truck frame with absolutely zero rust. This is a rat truck, it has no AC, it’s loud and rolls coal in every gear. Truck is a manual and requires someone who knows how to drive, however the tranny is solid and clutch is really forgiving. This isn’t a rust bucket, it’s a tasteful rat truck that you can hop in and drive across country with zero doubts. Most reliable rat I’ve ever owned and it’s never left me stranded. Fires up first start and will tow on the hottest day of the year with zero problems. If you’ve read this fair go ahead and shoot me a message, I can talk about this thing all day. Open for trades (I like cool stuff) but cash is king.”
Looks road ready.

This updated delivery sedan looks in good shape. The “smog check” image is just a wrap.

“1947 Jeep willys 350 bored 30 over Edelbrock aluminum heads intake and carburetor two-speed transmission speedway front end”
This could make a neat looking build. It has a “Tender” look about it. But, rather than cutting down just a wagon, this one combines a truck with a wagon rear.

“1970 Jeepster Commando Rat Rod. Really fun, I recently bought it and went through all the major components making sure it is solid. It runs really well now, 350/350 with a Ford 9 inch. Front clip is from a 72 camaro. Disc brakes front and rear. Lokar shifter, linkages, transmission dipstick, new wiring harness etc. Flowmaster exhaust, really nice headers. This thing is a head turner. Full take off top. Gauges and lights work. I want to build my own rat rod is the only reason I’m selling/trading. Clean title in hand.”
