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 .

(03/01/2010) What kind of top is covering this Jeep?
“runs a drives good everything works! Make offers ”
One little mod I’ve been meaning to implement was the installation of some drain holes for the driver and passenger side floors. This allows the interior of the body to easily be sprayed out after a day in the dirt.
I knew I didn’t simply want holes; instead I wanted holes with stoppers. But, I was concerned the stoppers would wear on the fiberglass. So, the other day I drove down the road and browsed around the local Home Depot store to see what I could find.
One idea I had was to check out the PVC aisle to see if there were any stoppers for PVC Pipe. After looking around, I discovered some $.15 stoppers that could fit into 2″ PVC I already had. So, I bought the stoppers and went to work.
First, I drilled 2″ holes with a drill saw. Then, I cut two pieces (one for each side) PVC to about 4″ (my fiberglass body has two layers of fiberglass with a foam core). I then used some handy marine glue to stick the PVC in place. It takes the marine glue about 7 days to cure, but once cure, it’s there for life. Here are the finished results — nothing fancy, but it gets the job done.
Here’s the hole with the stopper in place. I still need to put some herculiner around the edges to blend everything in better.
This image shows the stopper out and the top of the hole:

**SOLD** Here’s a great deal that Brett spotted.
“1960 CJ3B tall hood Willys Jeep. Buick V6, Power steering, New windshield, All new steering parts, newer brakes, Ultra low 5/38 gears, 8000 LB PTO winch. Street legal but with a top speed around 50 its best suited as a trail rig, Farm truck or for hunting. Does have a tow bar that goes with it so you can flat tow it to the trails. The body is in rough shape. I have another good CJ2 low hood body for an extra couple hundred. I would consider trading for a little 70’s Datsun or Toyota pickup.”
This looks like a good price.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
This looks like a good price, though it has a valve issue.
“Have two Jeeps need to let one go. I have restored one of them and don’t have the money finish this one. I have all the parts to rebuild it, except the seats, and radiator they were not original. These are great Jeeps, I love the one I built. Originally pulled the motor because of a cracked valve seat. Can install new valve and you will have a runner. Can part it out for more than I’m asking I just don’t have the time. Pictures are of when I purchased it last year. Since I have found a different hood and got ride of the wheels and tires and replaced them with original ”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3000.
This is a project.
“I have a 53 willys for sale. The jeep is a project that needs to be put back together, the engine, tranny, transfer case, and both diffs have all been rebuilt about three years ago. It has low miles. I started to take the jeep back apart to do the body work and paint, and some other upgrades and ran out of money and time, to many projects. I have all parts, so you can put it back together and run it that way or you could finish what I started and make it look nice! I have new fenders, tail gate, rear seat frame, and new front best top low back seats. The jeep also has new all terrian 33 inch tires, centech wire harness, and tilt wheel steering colume,power steering, SOA lift. Iam asking $3000 obo,”
