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 .

“56 willys jeep… have title. Original 4cyl and 3 speed transmission. Runs great, 4 wheel drive works, needs brakes & electrical run. Has tow hitch & fiberglass body. Will sale for $1200.

(09/21/2013) This has a fiberglass body. It doesn’t run at the moment. Lots of pics, but very dark.
“1946 Willys Jeep, with original flat head motor, 5 early style riveted wheels, after market soft top, wipers, electric fuel pump, defroster fan, and directional switch with lights and Selectro locking hubs. Just out of a lengthy 8 year garaged storage, after being a 3 season driver. Currently the engine turns over, but has not been started, should run with out too much effort. The last owner did a nice job of putting a fiberglass tub on the jeep, and the soft top and doors. Although the brake lines look new the brakes are currently not working. The frame has rust, and though it was on the road before storage I think some patches would be needed to strengthen it, but it is 1946 so in NH it dosen’t need to be inspected if registered as an antique and only driven to shows. Worth the price for the tub and wheels alone, not to mention the hubs and drive train. $2000 cash in person, no shipping. Listing for the owner who dose not have email. If interested send a serious email and I will send the owners name and address.”
UPDATE: Was $400. **SOLD**
It could be a bobcat body.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1100.

It comes with a rolling frame but no motor or trans or transfercase. I have too many project at this time and something has to go. This would make a nice project for some looking for a new toy. There is NO title for the frame or tub that is how I bought it.”
UPDATE: Status Unknown. Was $1450.

Damian wrote to tell me that a favorite drag jeep of mine, Rapid Transit, is racing under a new owner and a new power train. It looks like it uses a Bobcat hood and (likely) body.
He writes, “believe it or not this jeep is still around in the cleves, ohio area and races regularly, but it is now a center seater 2wd and has a small block chevy, i race with the current owner and also do photography.”
You can view Damian’s photos on Facebook. Below is a comparison between the old and new racer.

The rear of this is fiberglass. It includes a PTO.
“Rare 1953 Willys “Farm Jeep” CJ3B. Hurricane F head 4 cylinder, 3 speed manual , 2 sped transfer case, PTO, snow plow. It is not currently running, the engine is locked up, but has been full of anti freeze. I have the head removed to see the cylinders.
This is the real deal, 10 leaf springs, PTO, plow etc….even has the factory blue paint under the hood, and on the inside of the grill opening. The rear tub has been replaced years ago with a correct fiberglass unit. It has almost every original component, including the original rear hitch. Its not perfect…
This was a family members vehicle, that passed, and I am not going to give it away-if you are seriously interested, contact me.
Thank you…….

This good looking jeep likely has a Bobcat body. The license plates suggest the jeep is in Nevada, but the VIN/ID plate is from Washington. I’m surprised this only has a Dana 41 rear. Is that a thin air cleaner between two steal plates.

I ran across this unusual ad for the complete setup for an unusual 4×4 in the February 1964 issue of Four Wheeler Magazine. The prototypes and parts were being sold by Vic Hickey (or he was acting as an agent). Anyone have more information on this? It appears to be a four wheel drive dune buggy.

(08/01/2013) I am guessing that body is fiberglass. The running gear looks military.

This has the ‘Fresno’ modified windshield. The passenger side tank inlet is unusual. The body is fiberglass.

Please be aware there are two spots over the rear fender wells and one over the cowl that need some fiberglass repair. If you’ve ever done body work with Bondo this isn’t much different. Please contact me with any questions and I’ll respond as quickly as possible.
Does not have title, but can supply bill of sale. This vehicle has been off the books in California for more than 25 years. Comes with VIN plates. If you’re affraid of doing a little paperwork with your local DMV then this isn’t the Jeep for you. Priced lower, because I don’t have the time.
Will need grill and radiator.”
