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 .

Seller claims 100% original, but the brakes lights, front bumper, and seats aren’t original.

(01/12/2016) This might make a good restoration. Or, just drive as is.
“Offering my 1956 Willy Jeep for sale. 11 years ago I picked up from the winery orchard and I am the second owner to restore it with many dreams but never happened. Due to my unforeseen circumstances, I have to let it go with the reasonable best offer. Staying in the garage for over 10 years, I rebuilt the carburetor, new electric fuel pump, gas hot tank, new distributor cap, plug and wires. Things need to be fixed are, part of the wiring for the head lights, brake lights, horn and minor wiring replacement on the voltage regulator and rust with hole on the passenger side panel. If the price is right I can rewire for you. Jeep runs well and you will be amazed how it drives.”
UPDATE: **SOLD* Was $3200
Doesn’t run. Has PTO winch.
“Selling a 1952 Willys Jeep. I don’t know everything about it — haven’t heard it run in a while — but now I’d call it fair condition. Selling as is. My Father used and maintained through the years. With some light maintenance, perhaps carburetor or battery attention, I’m sure “the huntin’ Jeep” would work great. Or could be a good parts donor.
Once a very cool flat fender jeep, looks WWII style, it’s complete and was working when parked. Engine is a Chevy 350, Muncie transmission, big power driven winch, roll bar, alum mag wheels. A tow hitch was around at one time. Asking $3200.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3000
Has front and rear PTO.
“Jeep runs, Oldie but goodie! Has the artic top & doors, Has a soft top and door’s like new. This has front and rear PTO. If you know your jeeps this won’t be here long!”

Our first time in Needles, California
Today we drove from Laughlin, Nevada, to Yuma, Arizona (view yesterday’s post here). We began the day brilliantly, with a trip for ‘breakfast’ to Laughlin’s In-N-Out Burger. Ann and her gluten/beef intolerance forced her to spurn a delicious cheeseburger, but she did partake of a few of my fries. I, on the other hand, was quite pleased by my breakfast.
Map of our trip from Laughlin, Nevada, to Yuma, Arizona
We drove north out of Laughlin, crossed the Colorado River, and quickly reached Bullhead City, Arizona. One of our goals was to take a photo with the city’s large tortoise. Our mission was soon accomplished.
Next, I wanted to take a few photos of the Colorado River and the casinos of Laughlin across the river. Somehow, my wife thought that meant stepping into the cold river.
