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 .

“1970 Jeepster Commando for sale. Dauntless 225 V6 with an Turbo 400 Transmission. 4×4.
Just rebuilt the carb, brand new brakes, new battery, nice big mud rover tires.
Has the hard top which can sometimes sell for $1000 by itself.
The jeep runs well once you get it going but I’m don’t have the time or know how to finish it up right.
It starts up with a little help but I just can’t get it running quite right, also the wiring needs some work. Someone with a bit more know how should be able to make this a great car all around and will be a ton of fun to drive.
The interior is in great shape and paint is original as far as I can tell.
Any questions please let me know
Please use craigslist email to inquire”
