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 $4500.

Nick forwarded this find. The seller wants to sell everything together.
“My father was a very early (charter?) member of one of the first Jeep clubs in the country: the Yakima Ridgerunners (est. 1947). I am 65 and literally grew up in the back of his 1945 Military GPW Jeep. His WW2 Jeep was his baby, meticulously maintained, well-cared for, and always housed in the large barn on his property in Yakima.
Over the years he continuously added to his parts collection, and at the time of his recent death (April 2013) his WW2 military Jeep parts and parts Jeeps occupied a good share of the barn and adjacent shed building. Two of the Jeeps, plus a utility trailer built on Jeep axles, wheels, rims & tires, are titled, but only one is fully operational — his original, mint-condition 1945 GPW. But the WW2 era Jeep parts collection is extensive.
As the Personal Representative of his Estate I am now authorized to offer his entire “collection” for sale for $10,000 FIRM! I have received considerable interest, and several offers, for portions of this inventory, but wish to sell the entire “WW2 Military Jeep collection” in a single transaction, either to a single buyer or a group of buyers, but in a single transaction”
As mentioned, on Friday we decided to forgo the 3 1/2 hour trip from Pasco to Seattle for a much longer route (which turned out to be about 12 hours). As you can see in the pictures, the weather was optimal!
We left at 9am. Our first stop was the remote farming town of Bickleton (it doesn’t even have a gas station). However, the town wasn’t always remote. For years travelers past through it as part of their trek from Portland, Oregon, to the Yellowstone Trail and Yakima. After the creation of Highway 97 over Satus Pass, the town’s traffic dwindled (sounds like a Cars movie).
We arrived in Bickleton to find the entire main street blocked off for a car show. We toured the cars, hoping to see a jeep. After looking, we spotted one hidden next to a building. I don’t think it was part of the show though, but we photographed it anyway.
The side of this truck faintly indicated it came from Texas.
And now for the car show . . .
Between you and me, I knew the car show was here. Ann was surprised though 
UPDATE: Dennis had a good idea: check Google maps. Sure enough it shows the restaurant gone, but the jeep still hanging.
The jeep looks more worn and the pink flamingos appear gone.
Buz forwarded this jalopy journal thread that includes a picture of a CJ-2A over the entrance of a restaurant called the Barbary Coast in Mexico, Missouri.

Buzz found this crazy looking CJ-2A.
“1946 Willys jeep with an old school repower. Has a 1950’s flathead ford engine, this jeep ran three years ago but needed a pull to get started. One head was removed to inspect the cylinders. It looks like this motor may have the original bore but is ready for a rebuild. The distributer was removed and is missing. I will throw one in if I can find one in the shed. The body behind the firewall is made of plywood and fiberglass, it was nicely made but alot of the wood should be replaced if you choose to keep it as is. Original jeep dash and front sheet metal is in good condition. The frame is mostly solid but does have some issues at the front of the rear leaf springs and it has been notched for the steering gear to clear the engine. The engine is coupled to the jeep transmission with a rare adapter. Will be sold with a clear 1956 Willys title. The buyer will have 30 days to pick it up, if you send a trailer I can help load.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5000.
If this runs, it might be a good find.
“To the best of my knowledge this is the correct information. {I am selling it for my husband whom is ill}1962 6cyl/ automatic with plow. It has been outside uncovered for a couple years. My husband said he had it started a year or so ago.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
The 3B was used as the model for the ICON.
“When we decided to launch the ICON CJ3B, the first thing we did was search down a 100% original CJ3B. We did this so we could get to know it a bit, and to digitize the complete structure and establish a starting point for our CAD modeling work. We found this truck in central California, where it had been it’s whole life. This little CJ has exceptional integrity. It has been sitting for a few years, but it fired right up and runs and drives. Please do not expect to jump in it and go on an expedition. It stops, starts and runs, but you should plan for some tinkering. Rare PTO winch. Original paint. No rust on the body. Zero modifications other than the cheesy wiper switch and rear tire carrier, which could be removed with ease. Original California black & yellow plates. You will be hard pressed to find a more original CJ3B. You may find a shiny one, but you can never beat an original because what you see is what you get. ICON/TLC is a licensed California dealer. Buyer will need to pay $100 document fee above the winning bid. Out of State buyers must use professional transporter and provide bill of lading to be exempt from Ca sales tax and fees. In State buyers must pay DMV fees and sales tax. This truck is stored at our facility in Chatsworth Ca. You are welcomed to come visit it. Please bid to win, scammers please go away and do not waste your time or mine! Thanks for looking- J I put together this short video to show you more details. Thanks, JW”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $9500
