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: Still Available.

“1950 Willy’s Jeep CJ3A. Pretty much all stock. Runs good”
The windshield glass looks larger than usual. The custom frame could be of value if well built.

“This CJ-3A was found in Colorado and towed to Wrightwood where it was purchased in 2001.
It had been hand painted and decorated with a brush. Although it still ran it was very very tired.
With the help and guidance of the most recent owner (Vietnam Vet), there was a frame off restoration done!
Along with a completely rebuilt engine and transmission, the body was removed and straightened piece by piece.
51 years of dirt and grease were removed from the frame and repainted.
This Jeep was put back together just in time in 2003 for the Wrightwood Car Show.
Today this Little Flattie is completely original. All of the gauges have been replaced with original equipment.
The electrical system has been rewired to original specifications.
Except for the 15-inch rims that replaced the original 16 inch, this is what it looked like
on the show room floor in 1950.”
It’s labeled as a 1967, so it could be built on a CJ-5 chassis.
