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 .
The interior could use a little work, but it sure looks sound for the price.

“This is a 67 jeep wagoneer, it’s in pretty damn good shape for its age. All original nothing has been messed with really. Super fun to drive and just a cool vehicle. It has a little bit of a cooling problem and the filler neck needs replaced for the fuel tank. Found them online for $35.”
This is a rare one. It appears in reasonable shape, especially for the price. Someone might have added duallies to the rear.

“This is one of the last of it’s kind in really good condition. It has a flat head six cylinder engine that I was converting fro six to twelve volt. I was not able to finish because of disability. It would be nice to have someone finish this project. This ran when parked.”
Lots of work and money to restore these.

Here’s an odd go-kart like Offroad/snow vehicle. Anyone recognize it?
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1285490108877355/
“No clue what it is would love to know has 16in wide tires and Arctic cat 440 tried to start it has spark asking 1,000 obo”
Chris forwarded this nice looking Commando. It appears to have been built by Jeep Viasa and imported from Spain based on the data plate.
https://www.facebook.com/commerce/products/1969-jeep-commander/5799210036778812
“1969 Jeep Commando Jeepster * 33k km * 4×4 *Removable Top * Runs Great * Manual Rare ‘69 Commando, You are welcome to come drive it. *Note this is a Commando not Commander as ad says. 1969 Kaiser Jeepster Commando Wagon”
I can’t remember who makes these or what the model is.

“Farm hauler jeep. Needs cylinoid and clutch. 2200 OBO”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2700.
This is considered an early (if not the first) side-by-side.
I have for sale a 1970 lockley wrangler ! I bought this Unit with plans to change a few things ! Hate to get rid of it ! Runs and drives As it should ! It has a Predator 420cc engine and a forward and reverse transmission ! This unit has been all redone !”
Martin shared this rig. This one runs across drives. It could be a handy rig to have around.

“1943 Ford Burma Jeep, this particular truck was a bomb service truck for the Navy during World War II. It has the in-line six ford engine that starts easy and runs smooth. It has a 10,000 pound Braden PTO winch that works great and has new cable. The four wheel drive works as it should in both high and low range, high range is pretty low as top speed is only 45 mph. It does have a leak here and there as you would expect from something of this vintage but does run well and drives and stops. This would make a good farm rig or a good restoration truck for a military collector, as I read there were approximately 15,000 of these trucks made in five different configurations, I don’t know how many of them survived. I would be open to offers / trades.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was No Price.
While looking for jeeps I stumbled upon this unusual van. Looks like it would make an unusual food truck or other unique vehicle. That’s one big winch!
“According to a museum I’m consulting with, there were less than 1300 of these made and less than 50 in existence. Entertaining offers but don’t bother in the comments, compose a decent message or call Carroll’s truck parts in Galion Ohio”
UPDATE: Here’s another article on the Porsche Jagdwagen, Porsche’s answer to the jeep.

If you like oddball 4wd vehicles, Bill shared this rare Suzuki that’s currently on eBay.
1972 Suzuki LJ20 4×4
Sometimes referred to as Brute or Jimny
Oklahoma title in my name (sold as is) This is a 50 year old classic vehicle!
Very little rust in floor pan, one rust hole near seat mount (about playing card size)
Rust where original battery mount was. See pic.
Can help as needed to load for U-ship or other transport
Thought to be correct vintage TEN “seek and scan” Suzuki radio Can manually get a station, but weak….very rare accessory!
Tire mounted on the rear is more like the original tire “look”. This is a 5.50-16 tire very similar to what was original equipment. All the original wheels on the jeep are 16 inch. This rear mounted spare tire is an inexpensive option, as it is a tractor front tire. Check prices on eBay tractor 5.50-16 tires for off road use, if you want to go for an original look!

This seems a handy vehicle. Looks rust free,

I’ve owned it for about 30 years, been in my collection, just putted around in it a bit, it’s that time in my life to get rid of stuff”
I’m not sure how much value is here or what it will take to finish this custom rig.
https://cosprings.craigslist.org/pts/d/woodland-park-willies/7485904453.html
“I don’t know much about it. My ex and our good friend purchased this from a widow who’s husband was building it, and now I am currently separated and need to sell it as I can not finish the project. No title. Please call or text me to come take a look. I’m in Woodland Park, which is about 25 minutes West from Colorado Springs. I don’t get to my emails often, so a call or text is best.”
