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 .
This looks good.
“1947 Willys Jeep, restored, new engine, red with new black top, new interior.(304)645-5064”
http://blacksburg.craigslist.org/cto/2780383591.html
It looks solid and nearly original.
“Very solid ole’ Willys Jeep made in 1947, was redone a little over 5 years ago, garage kept, rust free. The Engine and transmission all work great, although the transmission does leak a little, it needs a new seal, the clutch is working very well. Brakes are spongy and could use a little work, prolly adding brake fluid would do the trick. Runs down the road smooth and is road legal, I have a clear title for this jeep as well. The jeep has 16″ NDT military tires, and the roll bar is bolted on, so if you do not want that you can get rid of it by unbolting it. I have the original rods and a bikini top for it, or I have a aftermarket snap on cover that can be used as well, all included with the jeep. If you have any questions just email me plus I have more pics of the jeep if you need them.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay
(11/11/2012) Lots of stock jeep to work with here.
“A very nice restoration candidate. Excellent overall condition. Very strong and quiet running engine, no smoke, starts right away. Totally correct engine compartment with all the correct 24V electrics. Transmission and transfer case shift and operate smoothly, no excessive noise or leaks. Some minor dents in the body and fenders. The only rust is not the passenger floor and is shown in the photos. A small hole was cut in the right rear wheel well and can also be seen in the pictures. Totally correct interior and exterior. Original top bows, all the brackets. No top canvas included. All original early wheels. Tires are 40% or so. Original fuel tank too!
It was 36 degrees F when I took the pictures, so the exhaust you see is not smoke!
New parts recently added: all new brake lines, wheel cylinders, master cylinder, fuel lines, batteries, front bumper, rear bumperettes, clutch z tube and seal kit, complete exhaust system.
This jeep could be used as is. Runs, drives and stops. All you need to do is put a new wiring harness in and repaint it.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4000
(11/17/2012) Walter spotted this one. For $5000, this is worth a look.
“This is a really rare “big boy toy”. Professionally upgraded with a Chevrolet 350 V-8 engine and Turbo 350 automatic transmission. It also has Dana 60 running gears (front and back), and a fiberglass tilt front end. You’ll never see another one just like it. There are still some things that could be done to really make this a show winner… Unfortunetly though, I’m having to sacrifice for a more practical daily driver. I’ll trade for something nice, or sale for $4,000 obo.”
This looks good.
“I have always wanted one of these Jeepsters. Now I own one. I went to look at a ’57 Ford Thunderbird and I missed the turn and I saw the Jeepster setting next to the road with a for-sale sign and told my wife we need to go look at it. We found the T-Bird but I could not buy it even for the price just to ruff. We were going to go look at a another car and I did not get an answer then remembered the jeepster which was very close by. When I was looking at it the owner drove up and the rest is history. Had a great drive back. we put the top down and drove home 44 miles most of it on I-5. Ran great. When I opened the hood I was not to sure what to expect, it is all stock with that little 4 cylinder F head Hurricane Jeep engine. This engine produced 75 hp (56 kW; 76 PS) at 4000 rpm (although it redlines at 3200 rpm). 3 speed transmission on the tree with Overdrive. Still 6 volt. Top is very good. He did not have the side curtains. The Jeepster was an automobile originally produced by Willys-Overland Motors from 1948 to 1950. Willys developed the Jeepster to crossover from their “utilitarian” type truck vehicles, to the passenger automobile market. They built 5,836 Jeepsters in 1950. Joe at Old School Garage has taken care of a few small things like getting the gas gauge to work. The Over drive will not engage. Joe got the heater to work. It’s all serviced and safety check and ready to go. Cond. # 3+.”
This no reserve bid has reached $8100.

(10/18/2010) There’s been some updates to this, including moving the gas tank to the back. Are those mirrors on the front fenders?
“I have a 1952 Willys Jeep for sale. It has a buick 231 v6 engine, and 5:38 gears. The axles, transmission, gears, transfer cases, emergency brake, and drive shafts are all original. It has a roll bar, a light bar, and nice seats. It is sitting on 31″ goodyear tires and steel wheels. I put brand new shocks, a radiator, and dual flowmaster mufflers on it. Also a new battery. Full Size spare tire and spare tire mount on the back. Trailor hitch and good solid steel bumbers. Carb is off because I rebuilt it. Will have to tow it. Make me an offer. ”
Originally a Shriner’s Jeep, Bill decided since it was already had some drivetrain mods that he would take it further.
He writes, “It now sits on a altered Cherokee chassis with Dana 44 frt and rear with a 4″ lift. It is powered by a Turbo 400 and a 304 AMC. I’ve kept it original looking with a Jeep wheel and the track width is right on. This is one Jeep missed out on produceing. Drove it all last summer and just love it.”

(12/16/2011) It looks nice enough, but whenever someone claims a jeep is restored to “exact specifications”, yet I see right away non stock hubs, I become a little leery. However, generally is looks pretty good.
