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 .

“1950 Willys Jeep. This vehicle is all original with the exception of the rims and the roll bar (the roll bar can be easily removed as it is bolted in). It has had a recent brake job and runs great. It burns no oil and goes down the road quite nicely. The body is very solid, there is no rust anywhere. It also includes a 6 foot plow and the original rims. ”
Needs gas tank and battery.

(02/21/2011) What is going on here?
“1946 Willys Jeep. project, not running, most everything there. Slant 6 engine. body is complete and not heavily rusted. ”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
Check out the the bulges in the entry points on both the passenger and driver’s sides. Somehow the body or entire frame & body have been bent down in the center. Add to this strange issue is the claim this rig only has 17k miles or so. Then there are the modified steps and modified gas tank inlet. I’d run the other direction on this one.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5000. The seller claims this is all original, which isn’t true (hood bumps, front bumper, rear mounted tire, windshield … just for starters).
(10/19/2009) Though it’s got one missing, I like the round hood bumps.
“I have 46 all original willys jeep, nice runs good. Has new tires and rims tires are wild country 95% tread. Front seats have been redone. no top needs new wind shield, asking 5000 because all original is something to have, this jeep is an awesome hunting rig.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** (04/24/2011) It has some dings and dents, but otherwise appears pretty solid.
“1957 Jeep FC150 Forward Control 4×4. Jeep has the F134 4cyl engine, runs great. Transmission is a T90 3 speed, shifts well, and clutch works fine. D18 transfer case, 4wd works like it should. The truck comes with a Western snow plow and mount. Windshield has a crack, but I have a good replacement windshield. Small amount of rust on the cab corners, and above the windshield, but nothing major as this truck has been in dry Colorado its whole life.
The weather has been perfect for driving in the jeep. So, the boys and I have been cruising around Renton. I have to say it’s a bit surreal to be driving along both the backroads and city roads in Biscuit, many of which I last drove 25 years ago in my last jeep. No doubt my kids are tired of me saying things like, “I remember when ….” at which I go into some tale from my youth.
Yesterday I put the jeep into the horse pasture, or at least what was the horse pasture and is now an area full of grass, trees and bushes. Karson got to explore a bit in the jeep, testing out the 4wd and learning to dodge trees. He seemed to be having fun. Here are a few pics.
No pics provided.
