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 .

(01/22/2011) A reader named Luke asked me to post his CJ-3B that was originally purchased by the Army. I double checked to make sure this wasn’t a M-606 and the seller assured me that it was a CJ-3B and notes that “The data tag is marked SN 62151, which matches the last 5 digits of the VIN. All data tags are included in the sale.” You can contact the seller through the craigslist ad or contact me and I’ll provide his contact info.
“For your consideration is a 1960 CJ3B, which was purchased under contract from Willys by the Army. It has the data tag, with serial number matching the underhood data tag to confirm this. Early in the life of the jeep, it was modified with two fuel tanks, either by the factory, or by the Army.
The engine, transmission, transfer case, and differentials are all in excellent operational condition. There is no smoke produced by the engine when running, and little to no noise when driving.
The brakes are rebuild and work well, the paint was applied by me. There is some rust, but it’s very typical of older jeeps, and does not harm the jeep. The jeep is currently registered as a Maryland Historic Vehicle.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500
(05/04/2011) This appears in good condition. Does anyone know if the CJ-3A had dual tanks as a dealer option?
“All original 1949 Willys Jeep CJ3 in good condition.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $100

CNN reported on Witness to War, an interesting website devoted to the stories of Combat Veterans. I decided to search the site for “jeep” and discovered a story told by Tom Kennedy about surviving a blast in a jeep.

There haven’t been updates at Paul’s Jeep blog since 2009, but there’s still plenty of information and images. You can visit it here. There are also a couple videos, too.
It’s got a variety of updates.

It runs.
“This is a 1959 Willy’s Wagon 4×4 with Over-drive and a V-6 engine that starts and runs. I wouldn’t call it road ready, it needs tires, rear springs re-arched or replaced and brake work but wouldn’t take much to make it work. The drivers side floor does have some rust. I don’t know much more about it since I got is as part of a boat deal and thought I would re-chassis it since it all seems there. I felt too guilty to tear it apart after getting a restoration book so it needs to go. It is 4×4, has over-drive, all the chrome, trim/bumpers and the glass are in pretty good shape and the oak strips in the back look good too. I’m not trying to sell something its not, it is what it is and would be a fun project. Call or email me if you want any more information or pictures of something specific. The title is clear and good. I’ll even throw in the restoration book too if you want it! (9 two 8) 3 zero zero-3 9 five six.”
