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 .

“For sale cj-2A run and drive”
Earl forwarded a photo of him and a jeep. Note how he created his ‘white walled tires’.
He writes, “Here is a photo of me and my first jeep a 1942 Ford GPW in 1952, my daily driver in high school. I paid $100 for it and had to drive it home in low range because it didn’t have any brakes. I’m still buying them without brakes. I hand painted the whitewalls on the tires, I never had a flat so it still had the combat wheels.”
Steve sent this video. No jeeps, but an unusual and early Adams Farwell rotary motor. I’m hoping to stop by the National Auto Museum during our March trip along the California Coast (Still to be finalized).

Marc found this photo. The jeep in this photo has some unusual features. Obviously, the bumper is odd. It may have a Japanese license plate. The top is odd (wish we could see more of it) and it appear to have a 2nd hood latch that is located in an unusual spot.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1795.
Glenn found this rare item. I don’t know much about the V4s that power these rigs.Might be an interesting motor to check out. I can’t tell if this is a variant of the Model F or a Model G. You can learn more about the Zamboni/jeep relationship here.
“1964 Zamboni ice-resurfacer, needs TLC, runs, goes, manuals included. These machines were made on a Jeep running gear. Dana front and rears, 3 speed manual with spicer transfer case, drive shafts etc. Will consider parting out if sale of whole machine doesn’t take place. Has V-4 air cooled motor that runs great and has propane setup. Would make a great lumber mill power plant.”
UPDATE: Was listed at $6000 **SOLD**

“I’m selling a very rare 1958 Jeep FC-170! You might only ever see one or two of these in your life. They’re super cool and great fun to drive. I’ve listed this before but the motor was misfiring, turns out it needed a rebuilt carb. I spent $1000 making it a daily driver and now it’s as reliable as any other (1958) truck =)
Runs like a champ, I’m driving it everyday while the weather is nice.
Anyway, shoot me an email with a picture of ANYTHING you have to trade. This Jeep is literally the 15 or 16th secondary ride I’ve owned so I’m interested in anything with a motor and at least 2 wheels.
I love old trucks, and Volkswagens. VW Bus preferred.”

(11/18/2013) Not sure what makes this “One of a Kind”, but it does look in good condition.
“One of a kind….1954 Willy’s Jeep, completely rebuilt, registered, insured and ready to drive away…This was my Dad’s pet project and he spent lots of time and money in fixing this jeep to great condition. Unfortunately he can no longer drive and has decided to sell. $14,500.00 is well worth the vehicle. More pictures and information available upon request.”

UPDATE: Still Available
(10/04/2013) The seller is quoting NADA, so he/she likely expects to get a lot.
“Very rare to find one with no rot and runs excellent; Motor redone and transmission is tight. Trade for? What do you have to trade? track hoe, backhoe, 4×4 tractor with extras or? N.A.D.A. value in average cond. is $10 to $11k and this is the nicest one I have seen that has not been redone.

(11/21/2013) Unsure how much value is here.
“Jeep willys kit. All I have is in the pics. The tub is patch panels welded together. It needs to be finished. It would make a cool rat rod or crawler. Any questions send me an e-mail.”
This is a nice photo.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
I can’t say for sure this is an Empire Tractor, but it sure looks like one to me. The ad is from Bernstein Brothers Machinery Company in 1951.
UPDATE: Was listed at $1500.
This project has some value here.
“1960 Jeep / Willy’s FC-150, Forward Cab FC150. I purchased this about two years ago and it has sat on my property ever since. I had planned on restoring, but, never really got around to it. I have so many projects I figure it’s best that this get in the hands of a collector. The interior and engine have been removed. I believe that most of the parts are in the bed of the truck, however.. there really is no way of telling. There is an engine block in the back.. looks like a Ford V8. These FC’s are really neat and very rare… the 1960 Jeep CJ-5 shares a lot of parts with this FC. I’d say this is a good candidate for a restore for the right individual. Most glass is ok, but some of the windows are cracked. Doors function as they should. You will need a flatbed trailer or truck with a winch to remove this from my property. I know how rare these are and I certainly am in no rush to sell.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1850.
