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 .
For some reason there appears to be a serial number tag on the outside of the passenger front frame rail.

I wouldn’t gamble on that paint being original (get it, Reno … gambling … yeah, kind of a dull jeep night!). There were two green colors offered by W-O in 1953, Willow Green Poly and Woodstock Green Poly. I don’t think this one is either.
“Incredible find. Classic Willys with original exterior paint,with no rust and original interior. Extensive mechanical overhaul with new STA tires. Stored indoors for the last 30 years. Runs good, looks good.”

Doesn’t run, but rust doesn’t appear too bad.
“Features:
Original 4-wheel drive running gear
Early 327 CI Chevrolet engine
Mostly all there
Comes with tow bar
Condition:
Does not currently run
Engine turns, not seized
Decent condition overall
Some rust at back tailgate and some under doors
Fairly straight, small dents on driver side

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000.
It’s a project.
“1962 Willys FC170 4wd. I was planning on restoring this over the winter, however don’t believe that will happen. The frame is solid and the engine is not seized, but it does not run. Due to the year of the FC, it never had a title. I spoke with the NYC DMV prior to purchasing this project and they provided all the necessary paperwork required to register the vehicle once it is ready for the road. This is the late style cab to assist in the air flow for the engine cooling.
This is a project jeep. The cab needs work, however I purposed looked for a flatbed style to limit the amount of sheet metal work required.
Definably one of the more unique Jeep designs and would be a blast once she is completed. ”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $250.
It runs.
“1951 Willys Jeep engine and transmission and overdrive for sale. Four cylinder 134 ci F-head. Regularly driven and used– doesn’t smoke or make any bad noises. All systems working including the overdrive. Been converted to 12v.
My apologies for not being more clear: this is being removed from a 2 wheel drive Willys wagon. There is no transfer case. The overdrive is engaged by a push-pull control under the dash.
Will be available in about a week. You haul, its in the Eugene Springfield area.”
Needs work.
“This posting is for a 1954 willys jeep. Frame off restoration was started needs body work and paint jeep is solid. Comes with transmition no motor 90% complete email jimmy with any question and I will call u back asap”

UPDATE: Price dropped to $3500.
It’s a project with a Sears hardtop.
“Letting go of my ’44 MB. Awesome rolling project with a unique piece raily to never seen. This one has a hard top! It is an aftermarket hard top sold by Sears in the early 50’s and is prett rare as I have never seen another one on an MB. Has Buick V6 with cast iron block, great reliable engine. I have a few boxes of other spare parts to add in, seat pads, stick shift boots, brake cylindars, etc. Needs an altenator and a new front passenger side axle. Both easily findable after market parts.
Has been garaged since I got it from my uncle a few years back. It was in working condition when he parked it about 20 years ago and sat outside under a covered roof during that time, so pretty well preserved with very little rust issues. Other than someone stealing the altenator off of it, it is all there.”

This May 10, 1943, article from The Telegraph shares the news that New Hampshire kids raised enough money through stamp and bond sales to purchase 92 jeeps for the US Forces.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1300.
Looks like a good price.
