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 .
An updated 1942 jeep will be auctioned Saturday May 14 in Galva, Kansas. I don’t have any good pics of it.
Here is a rare setup, especially for the Western US.

If you need truck body parts, this might be of interest.

2001 dodge rear axel

Bed is rough, but the rest looks pretty solid.

“This is an Eastern WA vehicle and has good bones from a dry environment. Good frame, good everything except the engine. Bought as project that didn’t get started, priorities shift sometimes. Engine needs a rebuild. Bring a trailer.”
During 1961, along with non-animal-related brochures, Willys Motors produced this series of ads using different animals. It appears they were only produced between January and September of 1961.
January 1961: Dog
February 1961: Busy Bee
March 1961: Horse
April 1961: Lion
I finally found an original of this brochure on eBay, so here it is. It’s another of the “animal series” of brochures that was published in 1961. This is Form DM61-07.
This is the front page.
This form is opened vertically to reveal this page:

This is the back when unopened:
Tom spotted this one. The M-38 body looks in great shape. It’s sitting atop a CJ-5 chassis.

“1966 CJ5 with a 1953 Willys body, 3 speed, Buick 225 V6, No rust. Selling for my Dad,”
Bill shared this CJ-2A for sale.

“1947 CJ2A affectionately named Rosie – runs, drives, shifts through everything (transfer case too), stops. All lights and signals work.
Still has original flathead motor, transmission and transfer case – getting harder and harder to find like this these days.
12v, alternator conversion. Newer alternator, brand new battery.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
This is as nice of a Spen trailer as I’ve seen.
“Jeep Willy’s Spen Trailer. This is the trailer you would have gotten from a Jeep dealer as they did not sell Bantam trailers. It is in good shape, has some surface rust on the top side and could probably use a repaint or would be fine as is. Tires are new. Asking $2500 or best offer, comes with title”
