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 .

The engine runs.
“Old Jeep I call Rusty. A little to good to scrap out and not quite good enough for high dollar restoration. When I got her the plugs were broken and rusted in place so I pulled the head and removed them and cleaned up the head. Inspected engine and it looked in great condition. Reinstalled head with new plugs. Then found out starter was no good. Gave up on fixing starter and got new one only to find out ring gear had teeth missing. Pulled engine replaced ring gear and put new clutch kit in while I was at it. Put engine back in, pulled shift tower on transmission and inspected gears. All good. Changed fluids twice in transmission and transfer case. Shifts good now. Hooked up my jumper box and and after 30+ years, engine started right up. The carburetor needs a complete rebuild so I have to choke it to make it run. Engine has excellent compression and vacuum. Pretty good old Jeep. Will need hat channel and some floor work. It will also need a fuel tank, brake work and a windshield. Has great patina. This old Jeep came from the Warren, Arkansas area where it has been in an old shed for years. I have a video of engine running, so I’ll send it to an email address, just let me know. It’s sold with bill of sale only.”
