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: Still Available

“This chassis has all the running gear, transmission and transfercase. This is a cab over the engine pick up FYI. No body parts are on this truck. Asking a fair price at $300.00, for what it is, I believe. I also have the same exact item for a 1955 Willys pick up for $200.00
Give me a call if interested, (209) 768-2570 or email me Thanks ”
This unusual photo has likely been through photoshop at least once. There’s a story attached as well. Click here to read the entire story.
In 1959 my dad and Mr. Hatcher Williams founded a summer school for high school boys at a hunting lodge in Corolla, North Carolina. I spent nearly the whole summer at Camp Yonahnoka in the Carolina mountains while my sisters and parents practically lived at the beach. (continued)

Looks rough.
“1947 Jeep CJ2A complete – lot of rust – complete running gear”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1300.
The starter takes all of 15 minutes to install. I don’t understand why the seller doesn’t install it and try to start the jeep? This could be a good price. However, I’m unclear why this has a flathead motor.

“What i have is a 1950 willys jeep CJ3A that has been restored to the best of my ability . I put in a new body kit, new paint, restored the seats, and a new wiring harness,plus lots of other new parts to numerous to list. The motor and tranny have not been touched internally. I don’t have a top for it. I drove very rarely and didn’t need a top. I bought this jeep in pa and started restoring it with my father who passed away before it was done. As far as i know everything is correct or as close to being correct as can be done. I have gotten alot of compliments on this vehicle by people who bought them when they were new. Buyer is responsible for picking up vehicle and shipping it. I will except cash or a cashiers check from a bank, at the time of pick up. I have very rarely driven the jeep, only about 3 to 5 miles and that was enough for me , so i have never really driven it very far. It has never done anything. But that doesn’t mean that it couldn’t. I just want to be as honest as possible. This also is my first time selling on e bay, so pleas bear with me. If you have questions i will try to answer them as quickly as possible. Thank You!”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $5995
(03/08/2011) The VIN of #315301 on this is a little high … like 80,000 production units high. The dash is missing a couple items, but this sure looks nice.
“Great little run around flat fender Jeep. It picked up lots of TLC as of late A list of newer parts would include Body Tub Tail gate fenders grill hood windshield frame poly gas tank Front seats rear seats Alloy wheels Mickey Thompson Tires and Rancho springs. It also has been converted from to a 12 volt system with a alternator the wipers are electric and tail lights are LED. The engine has been tuned up and is absolutely purring. The steering is tight and 4×4 is solid the idle is smooth and runs great. This Jeep does not have a soft top or a hard top or doors, sold as is the open Jeep pictured. I would recomend a bikini top to the next owner and call it good at that. This Jeep is a real eye catcher and would be a fun toy to have around. Call Shep at 208.721.1973”

Here are some fun pics from Flickr. The last one is an illustration that isn’t a great pic.
The step has been modified, but this is a nice looking flattie.
She’s King of the World (that would be a Titanic reference)
I do not know the artist or name of the painting.
