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: Buz shot this picture while visiting Ocracoke Island in South Carolina last year. This year he discovered the history behind the wagon. Thanks Buz! I like the way you vacation 🙂

Rob forwarded me the jeep below. It’s an odd melding of a CJ-2A and a Wagon. I’d love to get a closer look to see how various problems were solved.
This jeep is one of several jeeps in different conditions being auctioned, though nothing is in amazing condition. Tools and other vehicles will also be auctioned, including a deuce and a half that looks to me (not being an expert) in very good condition.
The auction takes place on June 16th, 2012, at a place tbd. You can learn more about the auction by Fenbert Auction Services and see the other vehicles at here.
Here’s the oddball CJ-2A/Panel Wagon hybrid:

Runs and drives. Just needs title. Looks like a great price.
“63 Willys Jeep for sale. It is a two door station wagon with a small block chevy engine, pto driven winch. It dose run and drive but the reason it is cheap $575.00 is there is no title so sold as a parts car or scrap metal.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $950. Better pics posted.
(03/25/2012) What happens when you put a wagon body on a 1/4 ton chassis? Well, this appears to be one example.
“I am not sure on exact year or if there is even an exact year. It is titled as a 2004 assembled and needs to be inspected before going on the road. This thing is a bit ugly. It is basiccilly a shortened Willys Wagon. The motor is a Chevy 6 cylinder so it should be an easy candidate for a SBC swap. Right now it does run and drive pretty good for the age but will need some brake work. It is not something that you are goinmg to buy and drive home from here. I bought it thinking I should have one more project jeep but there is no way that I am going to do anything with it. I did not build it so I do not know a whole lot about it. It does have the OEM Willys running gear. Tires hold air pretty good but they are rough. Buy it now and have a different ride for the holiday weekend at Silver Lake. The body work is rough and the side panles were welded on but never ground down or filled in so it definitely looks rough.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500
More work necessary.
“1955 Willys delivery panel, rebuilt chevy 3.8 V6 with turbo 350 trans, mustang 2 front suspension, ford 8 inch rear end, needs to be completed, clean body.”
One update tonight. Here is a picture forwarded by a friend of Jon’s. Cool pic! Times Square certainly has changed over the decades.
