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: Chuck called on this ad. The owner says his grandson listed it, but the owner is not interested in selling it. Was listed at $4500.
This “all original” truck sports a V-8. It also has a gov plate. A forest-service shaped sticker suggests this was likely a forest-service vehicle.
“1957 Jeep Willys pick up all original has a 289 Engine has some rust in the bed this is a 4 x 4 truck is pretty much all their original”
I called on this Ad a few weeks ago and spoke to the owner. He was a talkative and nice fellow. Apparently his grandson listed the truck on craigslist, but he says he doesn’t want to sell it.
Chuck,
Well that’s interesting and good to know. I’ll update the ad.

I called on this truck, the man who answered said it is his wife’s truck. Red Flag #1. He then said she wanted $6000 for the truck. Red Flag #2. As I already had been scammed once by another seller, I decided to run his name. He comes back with multiple addresses in the San Jose area. He was also listed in the Ripoff Report. Red flag#3 It was for selling a car that wasn’t his’. When I questioned him about this he said those were all business addresses he had in the area and that the report was from years ago. He and his wife apparently own a body shop in the San Jose area.
Thanks for the report Ray. That’s so frustrating to hear about!

I could be dead wrong, but the stamping on the GSA plate looks different than others I’ve seen.
