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 .

(04/24/2016) It needs work.
“I have a 1953 Willys CJ-3b High Hood Jeep. The drive-train and engine are not original, It has been swapped with the drive-train from a 1971 Jeep Comanche. Axles, Transmission, Transfer Case, even the engine which is rebuilt, needs exterior put together though. The Engine is a Buick 225 Odd-fire V6. Big upgrade from the original F Head 4 Cyl. The frame is in good shape, one small split about 5″ behind the front bumper. Now the body needs love no ? But it does come with a brand new rear floor panel. All body parts are available. It has been converted to a 12 volt electrical system. Almost every single piece of this Jeep I have. Close to every nut and bolt all separated in individual bags and labeled. I also have a fair amount of new parts as well. All in all after body work, final engine assembly, and the obvious putting everything back in place this could be a very fun summer rig if someone is looking for a fun project.”

Paul from Alaska wrote, “Recently I was at the Alaska Aviation Museum helping a friend assemble his plane when I noticed a very large photo displayed on the wall of the hanger. As you can see this photo was taken in 1947 at Adak but what really caught my attention were the numerous flat fender Jeeps with hardtops driving on the base. I took a close up photo of a cluster of these Jeeps even though the image is rather grainy but I thought you’d like to see it anyway.”
Labeling these 1 – 5 starting from the left, jeeps #1 and #3 look to have the same top. #2’s top is extended in the rear. #4 has no side windows. #5 I can’t see as well.
There’s a jeep near the top, again with a hardtop.
The full photo is in the background above the rare Boeing YL-15, which Paul’s friend has restored. The plane was built to win a military contract. The wings, tail and flaps come off quickly so the plane can be carried by a 6 by or towed by a Jeep.
Here’s an mocked-up example of a jeep pulling the plane:
And this shows a truck carrying it:
