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 .

(05/31/2014) This has a Navy Plate. The jeep is listed as a 1952 CJ-3A, but the Navy plate is for a 1953 CJ-3A.
“Desirable U.S. military, Navy issue. Solid investment. Original Willy’s Overland said to have been rebuilt by previous owner. New battery, 12 volt system, Runs quiet, doesn’t smoke, and not a leaker. All of the original brass/bronze tags and data plates still on the vehicle and they match with dash and under hood.
Loaded with options:
Original PTO winch with gear shift on the floor and data plate instructions. Hi-low Overdrive extra gear shift on the floor next to 3 speed and 4 wheel shifters, heater (not working), original gauges, original seats, dual jerry can/spare tire carrier, fold-out & fold-down windshield is really cool looking folded out. New leaf spring/shackle upgrade ($800 value), roll bar (not pictured). Great tow vehicle. No softop.
For years, I’ve looked high/low for one of these rare Navy’s with PTO and overdrive, so please accept it for $3,500 cash. I’ll keep it otherwise. Thanks “
