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: Back up for sale.

Hi David,
Looks like this one sold. I’ve updated the post.
– Dave
I emailed, and the owner seemed pretty up-front and reasonable. I asked about condition, and this is what he sent:
”
I’ve had the truck for about 6 years. When i found it the truck had been sitting for (I was told 18 years) a while. The story I got was the owner had a wreck and from the injuries couldn’t work the clutch. He had a fried who owned a shop and asked for an automatic. Halfway through the conversion the friend passed away. The truck was towed back to the owner in pieces.
I replaced the fuel tank, lines, master cylinder, brakes and lines. Rebuilt the transmission, transfer case, carburetor and timing chain w/ gears. Added electric fan and misting system to help keep it cool. (V8 with a straight 6 radiator) The drivers floor has what I feel is the worst rust. The cab corners I’m almost sure are fiberglass. Had new exhaust put on 2016. The dash is currently out as the master cylinder is under it and when I replaced it I didn’t put it back thinking I would be farther along than I am.
I parked it last year to begin the axle work and have had some unexpected bills.
It tops out at 50mph with 5 mpg on the current axles.
Thanks for your interest
Greg
