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. Make an offer.

That is an unusual F-head engine hood modification. The Willys-Overland hard top looks great. I don’t think the grille looks original (the parking lights appear to be a later model). The overdrive isn’t original either, as it hadn’t been developed as of 1946.
“Offered for auction is a classic 1946 Jeep. This jeep has been family owned since new. It is so old the VIN # is 65111. It is all original except for the installation for an up graded F-Head engine in the early 1950’s. The hood scoop was added to allow for the room needed. It has “dual-matic” front hubs and a Warn 20% reduction overdrive all standard. This rare old jeep also has the original metal top and a heavy duty (tropic) radiator. The tires are new. This jeep runs perfectly. It is ready for restoration or modification. It is a great example of solid steel construction from 1946. A true American Classic. Bidders please note it is offered locally as well.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $900.
