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 .
It runs, but looks like a relic from the Road Warrior.

Located at the General George Patton Museum of Leadership, this jeep certainly has some unusual modifications. I found the pictures below on Flickr. They were taken by Greg in 2009.
The Patton museum is located on the Fort Knox installation along US Highway 31W, just south of the US Highway 60 intersection.

“Cool street machine!!!!!!!!!! Highly sought after “parkway conversion” special ordered from Willys Overland by U.S. Postal Service, U.S. Border Patrol, U.S. Forest Service and other goverment agencies in very limited numbers. These examples combined the poplar wagon looks and high visibility with increased access to rear cargo area by retaining the ” barn style” rear doors of the panel delivery. Very limited and highly sought after combination! She’s powered by a 351cu.in. windsor motor with street compition cam, edelbrock performer intake with holley 650 double pumper carb. She breaths thru 302 mustang headers into 2&1/2 inch exhaust piping with flowmaster dual chamber mufflers. The front has been clipped with a monte carlo frame member….. sway bars, disc brakes, and power steering. Rear has stock willys leafs. 8.8 inch differential with 4.11 gears and rear sway bars and lakewood traction bars. Body is clean, straight, older but descent paint, custom louvers in hood and front valance, and a moon roof! She has a T10 four speed with a strong and tight clutch. Interior is clean with Z28 bucket seats grey carpet and brushed aluminum dash plating with custom guages: fuel,temp,tach, speedo, vaccuum,voltmeter all functioning. Clairion C/D player into 6 speakers. Original wood slatting in cargo area. This Willys drives well and steering is very tight— no wandering or pulling, one finger at highway speed. The is some bubbling on paint from my living at the beach but no major rust! Boby is very solid for being over 60 years old! Feel free to call with any questions, (my preference) any time.”

Bruce spotted these photographs from April 20, 1942 by George Watson. These jeeps are practicing under the supervision of Major General George S. Patton. These photos are part of the Watson Family Photo Archive. In them you can see some Willys MAs, MBs and Ford GPs. http://framework.latimes.com/2012/01/27/desert-training-with-gen-george-patton/#/0
Gary sent me an update on his CJ-5 project. Thanks for sharing Gary.
Gary writes, “I wanted to share a few pics of my project. I am very close to putting my body back on. (hopefully this weekend)
Also, I included a couple pics of an idea that I have for the old style master cylinder. I always hated having to unbolt the plate to check the fluid.
This is my solution- I took the cap and drilled and tapped it to 1/8 pipe threads. Then I took a small drill bit and opened up the vent hole that is on top of the cap so it could be filled with a JB weld type material. I threaded a tubing adapter to the top of the cap.
I purchased a fluid reservoir off ebay for around $10, this has a cap with a modern style vent and your brake fluid can be checked at a glance.
I don’t know if anyone else has tried this, but I see no reason yet why it will not work, but I will let you know if I have problems with it.
Needs a windshield. The seller is willing to deal.
“1949 Willys Jeep, Jeep is complete except for windshield, has been converted to 12volts. Needs restoration. Call 704-283-1837 or cell 704-609-1281. If you are serious let’s talk. This price has been dropped 400. dollars in order to move fast. I do have the title.”
