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 .

(10/19/2009) This jeep may be worth a closer look. The hood looks nice and tight against the grille. The steps have been customized.
“This jeep has been in my family for over thirty years. Nobody has time to restore it to driving condition, so it is time to part with it. Last time it was started up the engine ran great, but it has been sitting for a few years getting the body worked on. It is currently stripped down to bare metal and is ready for a new paint job. I have an extra set of tires, everything for a tune up, the soft top, extra gas can and other various parts. I purchased a new tailgate and hood a year or two ago but haven’t put them on yet.”
UPDATE: Still Available
(08/31/2013) This has a nice paint job at some point. Unclear just how much value is here.
“This is a Jeep CJ 3A which his in the restoration rebuild process. We started you finish. This vehicle has not been licensed since ’78 so there will be no record with the state. right now it sits with an in line 6 cyl. I think AMC engine? But not sure. It would require work to be useable but then you have a very unique Jeep. No title one can use it off road vehicle or apply for a bonded title.
Come and take it away.”

“1951 Willys Jeep. I have had this for a few years. it runs and drives good. I have it registered as a classic and I use it as my runaround vehicle in the summer. I just rebuilt the transmission. It has a ford 170 straight six out of a 63 fairlane. It has the borg-warner T-90 3-speed transmission. 4×4 work great. tires are decent. I had big plans to restore this all the way but I dont have the $ for it and my parents want it out of their driveway. I have the original bucket headlights and soft top for it. and i had the seats recovered last year.”

“1950 Willy Overland Jeep CJ3A
The body is a little rough. It is a good hunting rig as is. The engine, transmission, transfer case and front end was all rebuilt about 10 years ago. This jeep has a 10 gallon aluminum gas tank in the back of the jeep. A metal plate has been welded into place where the tailgate once was. This unit is pretty rare because it has a stock high /low range gears on a 3 speed transmission, which means you actually have 6 forward and 2 reverse, not including when you put it into 4 wheel. All running gear is stock, engine is a flathead. This thing will climb just about anything. Since rebuild on running gear 10 years ago we have only put a cuople thousand miles on it. Notice the front picture behind the towbar! That is a Ramsey 12,000lb winch in excellent shape, you could hang this jeep in a tree with that winch. I installed a smaller winch cable since the jeep is so much lighter than the pickup it was intended for. The smaller winch cable allowed me to get more footage on the spool.”
