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 runs. The seller writes that the body is in excellent condition, but it looks patched on the driver’s side. How about the driver’s side headlight.

I think a buyer would be way better off buying the jeep below and shipping it cross country than purchasing this.

This looked nice and stock and really good . . . until I saw that the body was rhino lined on the outside. Sigh.

This looks solid. The bumper is unusual. There’s something wooden on the dash that I can’t quite see either. This may be a good price.
“Parade ready, runs great, nice paint, new top, recent restoration. Lots of spares. Needs tires. I’m not using it and need the space in the garage!”
The truck has some dust, but otherwise looks nice. The jeep is listed as a 1950, but I’m guessing it is more likely a CJ-2A.
“Auction Saturday, August 11 10 am. Jeep pickup is fully restored. Willys Jeep, motor fully restored with over $2500 spent on motor. Also selling other Willys jeep parts. http://www.mchjauctioneers.com/ Owner 402-640-2487.”

UPDATE: Mitch pointed out that this has a battery box. To me this means this is likely an original body rather than a repro. Check out the motor and wiring. Not the correct engine, but looks like some good work here.
