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** Was $450.
This appears in good shape. Kelly 23 Series top info.
“What you are looking at is an original Willys Jeep hard top. The top is in very good shape and complete minus the back glass. The windows roll up and down and the latches work great. I will have it off the Jeep today or tomorrow. This will fit the CJ2A Willys or the CJ3A, M38, MB or Ford GPW if you use a CJ2A windshield.”
This may include what looks to be a Kelly hardtop.

“1947 Willys CJ2a and parts Willys. Rough but probably could make one runner out of the pair. Have a tile for the 1947.”

This post began as a reference to a Farm Collector article about Jeep Loaders by Jim Gay. It turns out that there were several loaders that weren’t included. Below you’ll find the most complete list I’ve been able to assemble.

“For Sale RARE 1 of 9 1962 Willys wagon traveller 2wd built for the Forestry Service. The price is $7500 or very close offer. The wagon has a good KS title in my name. I don’t have to sell it but I’m moving and probably won’t have time to get to it soon. The original engine, transmission, and shifter are missing and were when I bought it. If I build it I will change the suspension and drivetrain which really shouldn’t happen. The shifter in the pictures is just sitting on the floor and no modifications have been made. This wagon started out as a panel that was converted at the factory into the people hauling traveller that it is today. That is the reason for the rounded wheel wells. The paint is original and it is about as solid as it gets. I would say that the miles and interior are original. The spare tire mounts behind the drivers seat and the rear seats flip up and latch to haul other items. I bought from an estate years ago and I believe that the gentlemen likely bought it for the Forestry signs he removed from both front doors. The license plate on the back is Colorado 1970 and it was in place when I bought it. Let me know if your serious and have questions.”
It’s missing the siren/horn on front and isn’t in perfect shape, but the price seems good. Thanks to Andy for sharing.

“Jeep FJ-6 1966 right hand drive. Old post office fleet van. Engine is junk but comes with another one that’s good. Frame is solid, body is galvanized so almost no rust, does have some dents. I don’t really want to sell it as it’s a personal project of mine but I wont be getting to it for a long time so I’ll just leave it posted if someone wants it bad enough. My plans are to bag it and slam it, but it uses a CJ5 chassis so you could easily make it a fun 4×4 rig.”

Thursday and Friday I finally painted the interior. The color is rattle-can Red Apple Gloss. It nearly matches the exterior color, but is slightly brighter. As noted before, it’s literally just some lipstick to clean up what was there and to help preserve the metal a little longer before I can get the cab removed for a proper media blast, repairs, and paint.
After paint:
Here’s an odd ball toy that the seller suggests is from Marx. I can’t confirm that. The seller is only asking $5 for it.

“Vintage Marx Willys Jeep. Plastic that has been painted. Axles and wheels turn.”
The jeep looks great. It’s sporting a Kelly half cab. I met the seller a few years ago at a non jeep event.

With three days left, the price of this non-running jeepster is currently at $650. Andy points out that for most folks, retrieving this from the island of Nantucket will be time consuming and extra expensive.
“1949 Willys-Overland Jeepster Sport Utility Vehicle, 6-cyl gas, manual, (Exempt from Odometer Disclosure – Reads 1,333 miles) True Mileage Unknown (Not Running, Drivetrain Condition Unknown) (Title Branded Odometer Discrepancy) (Vehicles have been sitting for an extended period of time.
