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 $2950.
Doesn’t run. Needs body work on the passenger side. Unusual passenger ‘step’.
“1946 4×4 Willys Jeep VIN # 22582, Never had it started, original 4 cylinder engine is free, tires are good, good windshield and frame, still on the original 6 volt system, have many new parts to go with it, this one would make a easy restoration project.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(03/03/2015) Engine starts, but vehicle doesn’t run.
“Up for sale is a mostly original 1966 Nissan Patrol. The engine, transmission, transfer case, drivelines, and axles are all complete. There are fold down seats in the rear, a spare tire holder and removable hard top. Only 62,000 original miles! The inside of this is complete as well, ready to restore or make it exactly how you want it. The body is in pretty good shape, not a lot of rust or dents with the original grill and headlamps. This Patrol will start, but it is not currently drive-able due to years of sitting. Once this rare vehicle is restored, or turned into a custom trail rig, it will be a head-turning classic. Serious inquiries only, please.”

I stuck to the bed on Sunday. I’m not terribly sick by any means, just semi-tortured by a continuous cough that won’t let me sleep or talk much without coughing. Hopefully with a day of rest, we’ll be ready to go by Tuesday.
On the positive side, I’ve had time to read a couple books. I’m particularly enjoying a book called Great Stagecoach Robberies of the Old West. As the title indicates, it is a history of major stagecoach robberies!

This 1955 article in the September/October issue of Willys News highlights how dealer Elmer Horstmeyer uses his service jeep to generate more revenue.
Blaine shared a link to this early Willys Overland history article.
