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 one sold in 2015 for $14,950. It was relisted here.
“These are the pics for the Brazilian Jeep to choose from for the listing. As for info, it is as stated in the article, a 1962 Willys Brasil model 101. It has been modified to now have a Chevy in line 6 and a Toyota 5 speed transmission. It runs great but now needs some vinyl work and cosmetic paint. I’d love to find it a good home.”
UPDATE: I thought this was unusual (and was for sale on ebay in May 2009), but a couple days ago I ran across a post at the Hemmings Blog which had a bunch of these type of vehicles. You can see a few below.
“(from the ad on ebay) Here is a one of a kind parade Jeep. It was finished October 2007 and was shown at the 2008 Fall Willys Reunion in Jefferson City, MO. No restorable Jeep body parts were used in its construction. Mechanically it is in very good condition. It is controlled from the red end only. The engine starts and runs good, transmission and transfer case work good. It has standard Jeep 4-wheel drive. The brakes were rebuilt. The gas tank is from a Willys pickup. It has a new wiring harness, new gauges, including fuel gauge and fuel sending unit. It has a new alternator, fuel pump and rebuilt starter. It comes with a vinal cover for transport. All lights work including rear head lights and will pass Missouri State inspection. It has a clear Missouri title. ”

Update: No Recent Update 
I like the color mix as well as the overall construction. Front shackles are reversed and it appears the rear springs are outboarded.
“Custom Race Jeep, narrow fiberglass body. Chevy 355 full roller motor, four speed top loader transmission, Dana 20 twin stick transfer case, custom Dana 44 front w/posi Dana 44 rear. Lots of horsepower. Ready to Race or take to the dunes. “
I don’t know when or where it came from, but at some point my parents obtained a book simply titled “The Jeep“. It was mostly a picture book, which as a young kid was perfectly fine with me. I open and looked through it many, many times. Ok, I still open it ….
However, it wasn’t just a book with a few pics of jeeps you see everyday. Instead, it’s a slim book full of a wide range of pictures. Of course, there’s the standard bantam, mb, seep, gpw, etc. But, there’s also, for example, 3 images of the Willys/Nuffied modified airborne jeep, seen to the right (though not from the book — it’s from a russian site — the book images of the Willys/Nuffield are at the bottom of this post).
I bring this up, as I ran across a copy of the book at the Boise Library today. So, I snapped a few images of the pictures with my digital camera (hence the poor quality – purchase the book to see them sharply) and will post a some of them.
I haven’t asked for permission to post them (I TRIED to, but can’t find the contact info for them), so I’ll add this pitch for the book. This book is a must for any jeep nut. While it’s a fairly small book with only 64 pages, the collectors prices (at amazon) were hovering around $45. It’s a perfect size for your kids. The organization responsible for publishing the book is the Olyslager Foundation (link?), which has published a number of other cool books listed at the Open Library Project.
Now for some cool, but poor quality pics to wet your appetite…
One of my favorite sections of the book show how quickly a crate jeep can be put together. The book documents this particular group only took 3 minutes and 31 seconds to put it togther.
Check out the rest of the pics …..
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $500
“1948 Willys Jeep CJ-2A. AS-IS parts or restore. No title. The drive train is complete But the chassis is shot. We do have a few other little parts in a box that we didn’t want to walk off in the wrong hands. Overall this truck has a whole lot of potential. We also have a few other jeeps and 3 1/2 Mighty Mites for sale as well. We are liquidating some of the collection. ”
This is probably being sold by a seller who has been trying to sell a couple other nicely finished jeeps and stainless jeep parts.
“Stainless steel willys jeep very rare call for details.will trade for muscle car,hotrod,pro street car,nice lifted rubicon wrangler rockcrawler,beach property. *** SOLD***”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
This is a 2wd Sand Rail. I suspect the body is fiberglass. Looks well built.
“This is a two wheel drive, sand drag,off road dune jeep. Here is a partial list of features it has: a Narrowed 9 inch Posi Rear; Turbo 350 rebuilt transmission with a 3500 stall converter; 4 bolt main 400 HP Chevy 350 with Vortec angle plug heads; big hydraulic cam; 850 Holley double pumper carb; MSD ignition; 200 HP Edelbrock NO2 system.
