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 .
Does not run. The sides have been cut.

UPDATE: **SOLD* Was $4000.
The seller notes this is the “Go-Devil” motor, but obviously it’s the Hurricane F-head.
“Thank you for looking at this 1953 Jeep Willy’s. This Jeep is in good condition and runs really well too! It is a 4 cylinder, 3 speed transmission. The Willy’s has no rust holes in it and no major dents or scratches. Somewhere along the line it has been really taken care of. The motor has 2,000 miles on the crate engine (it is the “Go Devil” motor) and the tranny was built not long ago.
I have not had this long, but this is what I know about it! Come drive it and experience old history fun!”
The pics aren’t the best.

“Rusty tub I pulled from a DJ3A. I started to patch this thing up, putting in one floor board and getting some metal patch panels, but I ran out of energy.
The Good – has good firewall and cowl, gauges worked, rear floor OK, more leg room than other tubs – I was going to put this a CJ2A project. It has no tailgate – like an MB or GPW
The bad – pretty rusted, I removed both floor pans and replaced one I
