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 .
Isn’t this a trencher setup?

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7200.
Dan spotted this one. As he noted, it might be a normal wagon to which someone changed the doors.
“Rare 1963 Willys wagon, it’s rare because it has barn doors in the rear. Had a mid 70’s 3/4 ton chassis professionally installed. Has a SBC 350 crate motor in it with around 100,000 miles on it. Has turbo 350 trans with a 205 transfer case. It has 410 gears,also has an 8,000lb warren winch on the front. Really great in the mud,desert,sand dunes or what ever you wanna do with it. Just looking at it, it’s Bad ASS!!!. Has a little cancer in the floor but an easy fix. Couple dents in front fenders but again fixable. Needs tires. Asking $7200 O.B.O. Have a clean title. No Scammers,or tire kickers. Serious inquiry’s only. ”
Carl Baklaar was a veteran signalman for Pere Marquette Railroad. He used a CJ-2A as his maintenance vehicle. Looks like a Kemco cab?
Looks like a nice truck.
“All original,motor runs well and is very quiet.4wheel works fine,does pop out of 2nd gear on hard decelleration.Body is in great shape,and interior has been redone.New cooper tires and brakes work fine.Truck was sold new as a cab and chassis,which means it did not come with a bed.One was added at some point and goes with the truck.Currently there is a flatbed with stakes on it.Miles are somewhere around 60 or 70 k.Recent paint,truck had almost no rust,which is very unusual.Pretty nice truck,will get you lots of looks and smiles.Negotiable at some point.Would look great with a big bow.”

“I orig. purchased this to build an offroad vehicle and then found out it was an actual M38 Military Willys that was only made from 50′ to 52′ and not just a normal cj2a-3a jeep so I have decided to move it on hopefully to a collector of this type of vehicle as it would be a shame to cut up a piece of history , It has been updated/changed over the years so it is not 100% original but it wouldn’t take much for the military Jeep collector to return it to stock , In its current state it runs and yard drives enough to move it around or load it on a trailer due to it needing tires and some carb tinkering/tune-up work , Continue reading
