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. This section used to be split into jeeps, parts and other categories, but recent changes to eBay will require this information to be recoded.
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: Link corrected.
Looks like a good start on a project.

“1949 Willys Jeep. No engine or trans. Rough, but restorable. Lots of extra parts. WA title. $750 obo, will consider trades. Please come look at it rather than text for info, if possible.”
Rick shared these unusual hubcaps. Given the single “J” on them, I’d guess these were produced by Cutlas Manufacturing? At the bottom is an example of “J” branded hubcaps by Cutlas.
These were for sale in Florida:
Here’s an example of the Cutlas “J” branded caps from Pascal’s website: http://jeepwillysworld.com/blog/2016/01/23/j-hubcaps/
