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 .
Unclear if it runs.

“!953 Willys Jeep CJ3B high hood. It h as a mail jeep frame with the rear springs outside the frame rail. 406 Chevy small block with over 500 HP. Fresh Turbo 400 trans brake and stall converter, with a slap shifter.. Dana 20 xfer case attached to a Tom Woods drive shaft. Built Ford 9″ rear end. Front is a Dana 25 and it works. I never need it except to turn. Body is in good shape and looks sharp. Tires are in excellent condition. Aftermarket steering column also. Goes down the road very well for the year. It does need some minor work to finish.Crack in the front windshield. No top. What you see is what you get. The engine is built very well. Lunati cam and roller rockers. Aftermarket heads. This jeep is fast and fun. Ran a 4.82 in the sand. I will add more pictures as weather allows. Or send privately. Thanks.ask any questions. Looking for a new project. Time to move on. I will not ship, I will assist in helping a shipper with the shipping. I give no warranty what so ever. This is a built fast fun jeep. Hard to find high hood in good shape.”
