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 $1500.
(10/01/2015) No drive train. Might make a good hotrod.
“1947 Willys Panel Wagon. No engine or transmission”
This was one of several articles published about atomic tests and Willys vehicles. This article was published in the April 1955 issue of Willys News.
UPDATE II: This *might* have evolved into a scam. The seller agreed to sell to one buyer and provided directions to get the vehicle, but now is avoiding the buyer’s calls.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $900
Here is an odd one I spotted on Facebook. It reminds me of Bob’s odd Jeepster-like vehicle.
“This is a very strange “Jeep like” vehicle that is not a Jeep. I was told that it was possibly a specialty vehicle built in the 60s and that it originally had a 4 or 6 cylinder engine that the previous salvage yard owner removed and sold. 2 wheel drive. No seats or top frame. It has full length curved metal running board fenders that Jeeps never had. It also has a center console that housed the shifter. It was originally painted a coral pink color so the possibility exists that it was a resort shuttle vehicle. It is NOT, repeat NOT, a Jeep Surrey model! They look nothing like this “thing”. No engine or transmission. I saved it from a salvage yard over 10 years ago. It has 14 inch “A.J. Foyt” mag wheels that probably are original. Rusty but restorable. Buy it for $900 firm, fix it up, and have the only one out there.”
This might be a good find. Pics are poor.
“eep is in fair condition with no major mechanical issues. Has Chevy 4 cylinder engine that that was purchased new and only has a few thousand miles on it. Jeep has not been started in several years but ran well previously. Includes small snow plow.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6000.
This needs a little work and no longer has the top, but still may be a good price. Thanks to Jonathan for pointing it out.
“1965 Jeep CJ5A Tuxedo Park Mark IV. Rare model, less than 2,000 made. All original. Not restored. Original paint, original seats, original hubcaps, etc. I believe even the spare tire is original. No rust to speak of, some minor surface rust where the paint has worn off. 32,000 miles. Needs new tires, and one wheel brake cylinder leaks. Excellent condition for a 50 year old Jeep. Very easy restoration project, or just go over it mechanically (brakes, tune up, lube, etc.) and enjoy the patina look as is.
4 cylinder engine, three speed manual transmission with column shift (part of the Tuxedo Park package).
The photos were taken about 5 years ago. It has been sitting in the garage ever since so it is dirty from dust, and it no longer has the top, which finally fell apart from age.”
UPDATE: **SOLD* Was $2500.
Running when parked thirty years ago.
“This 1945 Military Jeep was registered and running daily when it was parked in this shed in 1985. When checked a few days ago the engine turned over but no attempt was made to start it. Original tires and wheels have been replaced. Plow frame was mounted by a previous owner. We did not use it for plowing here.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4500.
Appears worth a look. Is it missing windshield glass?

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.

I have reluctantly decided to sell my toy to finance my hotrod build. 1951 Willys M38, This is a old Socal build. I bought this with the intentions of painting it and making it purty.

(09/19/2014) I don’t know if this is an ad for a jeep or for a vacation! The jeep looks good. So does Hawaii!
