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 turns over, but isn’t firing. If it can run, there might be value here.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Last listed at $4200.
(08/28/2012) The seller doesn’t seem to know whether this was a real Fire Truck or not, but probably wouldn’t be hard to verify.
“I think it belonged to the fire dept. from 1975 untill 2006 then it was sold to a privet owner 2006 untill 2012 This jeep runs good but the motor has a pecking noise the jeep comes with a spare replacement motor this jeep is very solid one small rust spot on drivers side front fender.”
Buz spotted this one.

“Here is a classic piece of military history. This 62 Willy’s M38A1 will really turn heads.

The only thing I can see that it needs is a headlight dimmer switch”

The paint on this one is unusual.

This looks complete enough from the front that it might be a decent candidate for a restoration.

This may be worth a look. It might not take too much to revert this back to a stock look.

UPDATE: Still Available. Please review this thread before contacting the seller: http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=682338 as it appears this jeep is being sold by the same person (the ad displays a phone number which links to his name).
(06/18/2012) This look alike a to-good-to-be-true ad. Possible scam.
