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 .
This looks straight and solid.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500
“I am forced into selling my 1956 Willy’s Jeep. It is in pretty good condition for it’s age. It has a nice vinyl top and a new backseat. It has one very small patch of rust on the rear tailgate. Due to an accident that I had and being out of town for work, we haven’t been able to use it for awhile but last time we used it, it ran very well. Right now it won’t start and we believe it is a bad starter. We just haven’t had time to find out. We use it on the farm and in the mountains. A really fun 4 wheeler and hunting rig. We have dropped the asking price by a considerable amount because of the starter. It has a winch on the front and also a tow bar. It has fancier wheels than are shown in these pictures and larger tires. The tires are in fairly good condition.
Whoever had it before we did, cut the front fenders to put huge tires on it. We removed the tires and put a more reasonable size on it but we never got the fenders replaced. We put fender flares on it, which look okay. It does have bigger tires than are shown in the pictures and nicer wheels. If you are interested, I will take current pictures with the other wheels and tires. It’s just been such crummy weather that I didn’t think I could get a good picture. These pictures are only a year or so old.”
This looks like a nice jeep to be parting it out. The top is a bestop and appears in good condition.
“Lots of good parts and lots of good prices. Bestop, fenders, hood, body, frame, Old Man EMU ARB leaf springs, trailmaster shocks, T18 Transmission, Dana 44 Dana 30 with power locker, 6 point roll bar, racing bucket seats, 1988 Wrangler steering column with key, 1976 cj5 swinging peddles. Bridgestone Dueler 33×15 tires and 10×15 rims etc, etc…”

Apparently, all it needs is a radiator. That’s a good price considering the plow … and the flashing light on top! On further inspection, I see it’s been autographed, too.

It sounds like plenty have been done to this jeep.
“This was my winter project. I was going to keep it but, with Jeep offering such good deals on new jeeps, prehaps a new jeep? A TON of work was done by the previous owner, I got it and finished it. All work was professionally done.
It has a new steel body on it, (the fuel filler is in the drivers rear instead of under the drivers seat), just repainted, (it was scratched, no body filler plates)
6 point full roll cage.New fuel tank with “skid pan”. Electric fuel pump.V-6 motor with low mileage, (no gunk under valve covers or timing chain cover) good oil PSI
New timing chain and gears. “Hooker” wheel well headers with “Turbo” welded mufflers, (as well as a spare set of small “Cherry bomb” mufflers). “Moroso” chrome valve covers. Almn. Radiator. New T-90 3 speed trans, Dana 18 transfer case, clutch, pressure plate, throw out bearing. “Advanced Adpter” chain clutch linkage. Dana 44 rear axle, Dana 27 front axle, (all axle seals were replaced, new fluids in everything underneath, bearing repacked). New brake lines, wheel cylinders, dual master cylinder. New tires on stell spoked rims as well as a spare set of “Mickey Thompson” L-60 tires on “Eagle Alloy” rims. New gauges, Radio, C.B.
Custom Racing seats. Everything on the Jeep works as it should. It’s not show restored, but a solid jeep. All it needs is a top and a heater to finish it off. I’ve got all the reciepts for the work I’ve done, as well as as much info as I could on the jeep, plus a list of part vendors.”

It’s not pretty, but runs, drives, and plows.

I don’t know if this runs or not. Though the fronts fenders are bent up pretty good, it doesn’t look all that bad. The tires appears to have plenty of tread. If you can get the engine to run, this might be a good price.
