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 .
The pictures don’t suggest a “super straight” body, rather they suggest to me some dents and rust.

This looks in pretty good shape to me.

That is one of the cleanest heads I’ve ever seen in a jeep.
“This is a stunning example of a1951 “Willys-Jeepster”. Almost impossible to find with only 19,131 produced from 1948-1951 and ONLY 5,845 from 1950-1951. The Jeepster is a two-wheel-drive convertible designed by Brooks Stevens. Stevens and Willys knew that returning World War II GIs would scoop up these fun-loving drop-tops as soon as they rolled off the assembly line, they are perhaps one of the most interesting vehicles in the storied off-road maker’s past: a sporty automobile rather than an off-road vehicle, this open-bodied car very rare and highly collectable, also it has secured a spot in history as the last true phaeton offered by a major domestic automaker. This Jeepster has a very recent extensive restoration only about 500 miles. The (new)paint and body are in excellent shape with proper lines and gaps. New chrome, new wiring, new rubber, new glass you get the idea. Only 84,954 original miles. Powered by the original Lighting flathead 6 cylinder which is a cast-iron 148.5-cu.in. block featuring a 3- x 3.50-inch bore and stroke, four mains and solid lifters, all working together to develop 72hp at 4,000 rpm with 6.42:1 compression(ONLY AVAILABLE IN THE 1951). Driven by its original 3-speed manual transmission with OVERDRIVE, ZERO RUST ZERO RUST REPAIR, up graded to a 12 volt system, period correct bias belted 3 inch White walls, original Willys hub caps and trim rings, original Willys steering wheel and factory gauges,( oil, temp. and water replaced with upgraded aftermarket gauges), new interior, original(Red) interior is in excellent condition and is included with the sale, new top, original side windows, rear steps, lots of restoration receipts, even touch up-paint. This super-cool ride will go 60-70 miles an hour on the freeway all day long. Very dependable, total blast to drive. Now on display at the home of “over the top cars””

UPDATE: I moved this morning’s posts to the top of tonight’s posts, but I’ll keep this ‘update’ here.
Just a few posts this morning. I’ll post more a little later.
Ann and I have to run the truck to the dump transfer station (the truck is full of garage cleaning). This is Ann’s first time to the transfer station, a place special to the family. It was at the transfer station in 2003 where dad drove the truck for the first time following his stroke. The stroke hurt his ability to use his right side, so he had to relearn the use of it.
It all started, because he was unhappy with mom’s parking job. So, he climbed over to the driver’s side while she was taking off the tarp to dump stuff. He meant to pull forward a few feet, but instead his foot hit the accelerator, causing the truck to lurch forward about fifty feet before dropping over a steep embankment.
There was a shriek from mom and gasps from employees and onlookers. Soon, news helicopters showed up to film the scene. However, the copters left the scene, disappointed by the lack of death. Because, both dad and the truck survived just fine. It took two tow trucks to pull the truck back up, but it still drives fine. In fact, it is the very truck we are taking to the dump today 
This looks in nice shape.
