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 .
This photo of a modified jeep was posted to Facebook last week by Morihisa Ochi on the G503 page. It looks like the custom parts could be taken off pretty easily.

“I’m closing out my car collection and offering this ’63 Willys Jeep Tuxedo Park. It runs great and drives well (for an old Jeep). It is equipped with a Warn overdrive. I had a lot of upgrades done to this vehicle in the past two years. Some of the more important ones:
Completely new brake system, upgraded to 11 inch drums which greatly improve braking
New wiper motor
Some steering components replaced as needed
New tires (still look new)
New exhaust system
Seats reupholstered
Parking brake shoes on driveshaft relined
New pinion and axle seals
Wheels powder coated. They are the correct 16 inch size
Front floor pans replaced and coated with Rhino Liner
Hard top appears to be factory or dealer installed. Roll bar added
Odometer mileage shows 56,607 as of this date. Speedo/odometer works but I don’t know if this is the actual mileage or not.
This is a Tuxedo Park model. There were few produced and not many left that haven’t been repainted or modified. The T.P. was a trim option which included special body color (Indian Ceramic), chrome bumpers and hood hinges, special tail lamps, color-keyed steering wheel and a few other items. If you want more info on the Tuxedo Park consult the Kaiser Willys website, kaiserwillys.com
Price is $10K FIRM. Please do not call if you are not prepared to pay this price for a unique Jeep.
Looks promising.

“1948 Willys Jeep CJ2A Does not run. Driver’s side wheel studs are broken off.”
UPDATE: Just to emphasize, this is a recreated version of the original painting.
Thanks to Scott for this link. The sale is for a 22 x 28 inch painting made by an artist named Daves from the original version of this image by Sessions. According to the seller, this painting was used as the cover image for Ray Cowdery’s book All American Wonder II.
https://willysforsale.com/ads/the-original-22×28-inch-painting-cover-of-all-american-wonder-ii/
“Here is the opportunity to own the original painting that was used for the by now iconic book on WWII jeeps ‘All American Wonder II’ by Ray Cowdery. The book is a ‘bible’ for any WWII jeep enthusiast and/or restorer. The author had this oil painting made by an artist of the name Daves to resemble a WWII Willys advertising by Sessions. It graces the cover of his book, and this painting is the only original in the world. On the back a large rubber stamp of the author and his former address. It looks amazing, the colors are vibrant, there are of course no holes or other damage. It looks amazing even unframed and will become a centerpiece in anyone’s jeep collection.”
