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 .
“Hello
I am looking for a half cab for my 52 Willys Jeep. Does anyone have one of these or a friend that needs it sold? Interested in almost any shape. I have no idea what other years will fit my jeep. But it has to be better than the top i donot have at all.
Thanks”
“I need a transfer case complete with shift lever and overdrive for my 1963 Willys Wagon. Many years were the same, and I believe 1956 through 1963 were interchangeable. I want to be able to drive down the road above 47 mph without the motor turning maximum rpms.”
“I am looking for a qualified mechanic willing to redo the brake system on a 1962 jeep Willys pick up truck. This is a restoration project and obviously is not a new vehicle and will take some skill.

“I am looking to buy or build a 1952 or 1953 Willys Flat Fender Jeep. To be more specific:
If you have a very solid all original low-mile example that is unmolested / uncut / etc. . .
OR
If you have a restored Jeep, I would like to learn more about it if it was redone by a “Type A” perfectionist, not necessarily a 100% purist though. I am looking for a functional, but show quality driver. Just to save us both the heartache, know that I am very picky and looking for the “right” Jeep if I’m buying someone else’s work. Very minor modifications such as a 12volt conversion or 10″ brakes are OK, but I’m not looking at anything that has an engine and/or trans swap, rock crawler, street rod, etc. . .
OR
If you have a very good foundation Jeep from which to build: This must have a straight/rust-free frame, good solid low-mile running gear, etc. . . but maybe needing a body replacement.

Pam from a school in Colorado Springs is looking for relatively solid, but non running flat fender.
Pam writes, “I am looking for an old safari jeep to put in our Children’s Church because we are doing an African theme. I just need the body and actually just the front of the jeep just past the front seat because I’m going to mount it to a wall in a classroom. I have limited space so was going to have the Jeep mounted to the wall so kids could climb up in it and pretend to drive. I would also need the front tires attached as well. I am in Colorado Springs but would even travel to the next state if we could find something nice and affordable (or free). We are a non-profit so if someone would be willing to donate, we could give them a tax write off.”
So, if you have a non running flattie in the Colorado area, Pam would love to hear from you. pflanery5 [at] comcast.net
Stuart writes, “I am in need of proper, adequate, if not original seating situation for the “front” of my 43 gpw. As you may be able to see from the pics below, someone has “bubba’d” the driver’s seat and stretched it about 10 inches. I understand the passenger seat isn’t correct either. What i do have to trade or sell to someone is a purpose fabricated roll cage w/ bucket seats, a full width rearview mirror and a console/armrest/cooler/cup holders (not shown) that fits between the center rails.”
