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 has only owned it for a month or so. Listed as a 1964. Looks like a compilation of parts.
“I’m selling my Willy’s JEEP ( NO SMOG)(CLEAN TITLE IN HAND) .. I’ve had the Jeep only for about a month or so and i already have another truck and a motorcycle. in all i bought this vehicle on impulse because my father who recently passed loved to build Jeeps. the body is straight and it has a 350 Chevy motor. THE WIRES YOU SEE ARE FOR THE WENCH [ FRONT and REAR ]. it needs a new coolant overflow container and may need a wiring harness (STILL RUNS AND STARTS GREAT). I had the timing adjusted and the carburetor cleaned along with putting a new master brake cylinder in it. it does need some work but it drives nice and stops correctly. im sure it needs a proper tune up still but i just don’t have the time nor the money to put into it. if interested please contact me at show contact info its in Georgetown CA.. Asking $4300 obo.. comes with soft top and doors. MUST SEE TO APPRECIATE EVEN MORE !!”

(07/14/2016) Has some rust.
“For sale 1951 Willys Jeep CJ3A.
This little feller runs good, I replaced the foot pedal start with a key start gear reduced starter. I also upgraded to a 12volt alternator. I installed a new Poly fuel tank and new fuel pump.
It starts and runs without hesitation. It does not smoke. It has a quiet exhaust system. The drive train all works even the emergency brake.
The body is all there and the floor pans are solid, there is the usual rust on the rocker panel area and tool box. It is very useable like it is or you can finish restoring it.
There is no title, I bought it with a bill of sale and I will provide a signed bill of sale and photo ID.
It had been sitting for many years in a barn near Amarillo Tx. I have had it for about two years and run around the neighborhood in it.
Call or text with any questions. Come take a look at it, I have room to test drive it even though it is not street legal at this time.”
