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 .
Has some good upgrades.

“1951 Willys Jeep CJ3A. This is a PROJECT VEHICLE. As you can see by the photos, it is in pieces (literally). This Willys would be a great start for a rebuild or would be good for parts if you’re already doing one. The chassis is in really good condition with no rust. Fenders, hood, grill, tailgate, windshield & windshield frame are good. Seat frames are pretty good also. Has the L-head 134 cu in. 4 cylinder which is in torn down and needs rebuilt. The tub is in rough shape (as evidenced by the photos). Transmission has been rebuilt and should be good to go. I am asking $1,000 but will consider any offer. I am moving and can’t take it with me.”

“1967 Ford M151A1 Vietnam era Military Jeep. Delivery date of 12-67. Initially procured and used by the US Army, later transferred to the US Navy and used by the United States Marine Corps. (I verified this through a recognized expert on this series of jeeps). Still has the USMC front bumper, different from the US Army setup.
UPDATE: The owner of this jeep reports it was stolen last week. It was listed for sale the previous week. (Craigslist ad reporting it stolen). Seller believes is has been painted white.
==============
This is the ad from the previous week when it was still for sale. It appears to have been modified with a bench seat.
“This is a real army issue willys that was in the korean war which means it has a lot of heavy duty upgrades from the civilian model, it’s pretty much all original except the front bench seat but i have the stock buckets too and the front bumper trailer hitch for towing it as well. Just had a brand new carb and fuel pump put on it and the thing runs great and only has 30,000 miles on it! This thing gets lots of attention and is a blast to drive and will climb up anything! I also have a extra set of original rims and mud tires that will go with it. I love this little willys jeep and don’t really want to sell it but current situations demand it.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $6000.
Unclear if it runs or not.
“This truck is clean inside and out it is a great father son project restoration”
