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: **SOLD** Was $1500.
On a trip to Bonner’s Ferry, Idaho, Dan discovered this unusual project. Underneath all the modifications is a 1943 GPW. What’s amazing to me is that, all things considered, it doesn’t look all that bad. Someone certainly cobbled together a variety of vehicles, along with a healthy supply of diamond plating to keep this vehicle on the road. No doubt it was better than sporting a soft top in cold weather.
UPDATE: Status Unknown. Price was $1200.
I wonder if this has a rear PTO, too. It’s not ALL original, but there might be enough original to make it worth it. It runs, too.
“1945 Willy’s Jeep. All original and runs good. Thanks for looking. Email me if interested.”
This needs a little more work (not sure what).

The engine is supposed to be new with only 500 miles on it …

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.
(10/26/09) I’m guessing it’s a CJ-3A, however the body appears to have a solid back, so it might be a DJ-3A body? The seller has included a long description.
“This is a 1940 or early 50’s Jeep Willys. I’m not sure because this jeep is registered as a 1967 due to the year of the motor. The motor is a Chevy 283 V8 from a 67’ Chevelle. This Jeep is full of goodies and will always be smog exempt ”
These look like a nice set of run-about tires.
“Wheels and tires off my 57 Willys Jeep CJ 5. Heavy duty would make a great replacement or back up set for yours. The wheels are in good shape and the tires have full tread remaining on them. Email if interested.”
