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 .

UPDATE: SOLD. See comments.
(10/24/2010) It’s got some rust, but drives.
“1948 Willys, 32,721 +/- on the odometer. Guy who had it before me parked it in his garage thinking he would do some body work. Sat for 12 years. I got it thinking I needed another project vehicle. Wife decided I didn’t. Dumped some gas in it earlier this summer and it fired right up. Drove OK but brakes need work. Tires are good including a spare on a matching wheel. Looks to me like everything is there with the exception of a seat-bracket and seat. The lights/trim wipers, steps, etc are in a box. Body has some rust (see pictures) but the frame and drive-train look solid and straight. I have a clear title for this jeep. With a little elbow grease this winter I think this has potential as a fun summer ride. Asking $1,100.00 but would entertain any serious offer.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1650.
It is a project.
“I have a 1957 Willys CJ5 Jeep project. The Jeep has an inline 4 cylinder F-head 134 cubic inch engine matched with a T-90 3 speed manual transmission. It also has high and low range along with 4 wheel drive. The Jeep is currently somewhat tore-down, the half-cab is off along with the hood and both fenders. The engine and transmission are still in tact to each other and still mounted to the frame. The engine runs good but may need some carburetor cleaning. I just don’t have the time to complete the project. Thanks for looking”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8500.
The price is a bit high, but this would likely make a great restoration candidate.

From the company’s website, “First and foremost, we are a Canadian company that takes pride in the satisfaction of restoring World War II military jeeps and being able to sell very rare jeep parts for those that wish to do the work themselves…. We restore complete vehicles. The customer vehicles in the Photo Gallery are awaiting restoration. Our facilities consist of about 8,000 sq. ft. … We have about 50 jeeps in our Jeep yard, so have a look to see if any suits your fancy.”

It runs, though the body has some dents.
“1957 Military Style Willies Jeep. Runs great, lots of power and is a fun little jeep to drive. It has a Ford 289 V-8 engine, the original 3-speed manual transmission, 4-wheel drive. It has $800 in new parts including; new tires, new soft top, new turn knuckles, new brake pads and new break lines.

The engine is out.
“1957 Willies Jeep civilian version. The body is in good condition over all although there is a small amount of rust in the front passenger fender (I’ve included a photo of it), the paint and interior are in fair to good condition and the tires have 75% of the tread left. It comes with the original Hurricane 4 engine which is currently not running because we removed the radiator to start the process of replacing the rear main seal but never got it done. It also comes with the original 3-speed manual transmission. For an additional $1,500 I’ll include a Chevy V8 383 stroker and a new turbo 350 hydro transmission with torque converter. Motor includes all accessories: carburetor, alternator, brackets and pully’s. Also take a look at my 1957 Military style Willies Jeep I have for sale as well. (It’s located in Lindon)”

Does this have the proper rear hubs? I don’t see them (could just be the picture).
“Believed to be an “Radio Dispatch Jeep, with larger battery compartment and larger generator. Not sure of the exact year, maybe you can help me figure that one out?

There’s value in the rolling chassis (posi front and rear).
“I have a 1957 cj-5 roller with posi front and rear differentials, full cage roll bar, good front clip and a salvageable tub. There is not an engine, transmission or transfer case for this jeep. I do have a seperate turbo 350 advanced adapted to a twin stick dana 18 transfer case. This roller has a 4 inch Rancho Lift and power steering. No title on this jeep.
I have lost interest in this jeep, as I have my heart set on a 69 chevy short bed truck.

Thank you for looking and will consider parting out, partial trades, or cash, etc..”
UPDATE: This sold for $600. It looks like a good buy at that price.
The seller lists this as a ’51, but it looks like a MB to me. Must sell quickly.
“I am selling an antique 1951 Willy Jeep, it comes with original engine. I bought it as a hobby to restore but now we are moving and we must sell it ASAP.”
**SOLD** Was $650.
This is a project or parts truck.
