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 nice looking Jeepster Convertible will be auctioned on Saturday, September 5th.

The odometer reads 9471 miles, but the grille pitting suggests to me the mileage is higher? Maybe the actual mileage is 109471?

I just finished restoring one and have decided not to tackle another, so this is your opportunity. Selling as a package only, I won’t separate for parts.

UPDATE II: Amy is wondering if anyone knows where this Jeepster is? It was last for sale in Vermont in November of 2018 …
Amy wrote, “It belonged to my grandfather. I was unable to buy it when he passed and to see it for sale again, it would mean the world to me to know where and if I can get it back. I spent my summers working on and going for drives in this car. It was my grandfather’s pride and joy. Please any information you have is appreciated.”

“McClure ohio, $6,500 obo . 1949 willys jeepster. 6 cylinder ( not original- came with a 4 so I’m told ) by vin number. But is the correct lighting 6 cylinder for that year of jeepster. Last on the road in 1980 . According to the sticker on the plate . DOESN’T RUN. my grandad recently passed away, and for whatever reason he took the fuel pump, distributor and carburetor off . I FOUND THE DISTRIBUTOR AND CARB 😁😁😁 There’s a couple fuel pumps in the back of the car ( box SAYS jeepster on it ) ENGINE IS FREE AND HAS COMPRESSION. The interior is in really good condition. The car has some rust on rockers. The entire underneath of it was painted by me in about 98 or so . Always kept inside. Top is in good shape . There’s extra parts for it ,and every jeepster part I find I’m putting with it . Cash only no trades.”
Seller listed this as a “1959”, but that appears to be a typo.
