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 .

“Hunters!! Cool old 4×4, ready for the woods or even a car show! Lifted, 289ford engine, rest of drive train stock. Extremely unique.
Here is a strangely modified truck pointed out by James.
“This is a 1947 2wd willys truck that is a flatbed. The eng runs great and it drives good too. The truck has been customized to a rag top and behind the windshield to the back of the cab is all well made. This is something you must see to get a true picture. It has the 6cyl with the 3speed on the floor trans and all original axles,shafts and frame. I was told dodge made these for the military for a short time but don’t know a lot about it. The miles are low and there is no smoke or bad noises in the drive line. One windshield is cracked but the dash is in good condition and the steering is tight. There is functional exaust stacks on it as well. I have seats for it and a console but they are not in it as of yet. I just put a 54.00 electric fuel pump on it. It still needs the wood doors replaced but I have one for a pattern and the floors were just replaced and painted. The bed is in great shape. Feel free to ask any questions and I will answer them all.”

Glen pointed me to an intersting post at the OldWillysForum. The post is a link to a list of detailed specs for a 1957 Willys Utility Truck that John found on eBay. It’s pretty cool. Here is an example of one spec:
