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 .
Parked in 1980, but seems to have potential.

“Straight body. No rust. Parked in barn in 1980. All original. Original drive train easy restoration.”
UPDATE: Steve tells me this is the former Pittle Power jeep. I last rode in it about 1981.
Lots of updates to this CJ-3A. It has some rare turbine rims (aka Western Cyclone rims I believe).

“I am selling my 1951 CJ3A. I am the 3rd owner but it has been sitting for over a decade and was told it ran when it was parked. I have replaced most of the wiring, gauges, and gas tank with accurate reproduction. Wanted to restore it and get it driving but ran out of time. Besides what I have changed and the wheels/tires the vehicle is still original as it came off the factory floor. Also still has the VIN plate which is very rare for an old Willys. Asking $8k because of the rarity and original VIN plate.”
It runs, but may need brakes rebuilt.

“Very original 1950 CJ3A. -Tight L134 Go Devil engine with brand new valves and guides. It doesn’t smoke and has good compression. -Comes with a brand new full brake rebuild kit from Walcks Jeep Parts. -It has a brand new set of bias ply tires. -Body is pretty dinged up from years of use, but it has basically no rust. There is one rust spot the size of a dime on the passenger side. This Jeep is a project. You will have to trailer it home. I’m sad to sell it, but I’m moving, so its got to go. Located in Trinidad, Colorado. Cash only, no trades.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000.
