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 .

Colin was searching the web and accidentally ran across this jeep.
He writes, “While browsing the web . . . I found this photo, which is obviously misnamed. The caption says it is a 1948 VJ2 Jeepster(NOT!), but it is what I think is a factory photo of a prototype DJ3A with the low windshield, convertible top and a 48-49 Jeepster T-Bar on the grille.”
Note both the T-Bar grille and the way the top connects the windshield. Anyone seen other pics of this?
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000

“Up for auction is another one of our farm vehicles we have decided to sale. This is a 1953 Willys Jeep and from the best I can tell it is a model CJ3A. We have had it for many years and used it to pull one of our irrigation pumps. It has a four cylinder motor and is four wheel drive. It has not been driven in a few years but should crank up with little more than a charged battery and some fresh gas. The odometer reading is 70718 and it has a clear title. This jeep can be used like it is or can be restored to its original condition. This is an “as is” sale with the buyer is responsible for picking up or arranging to have the vehicle transported to their location. Buyer to pay a non-refundable deposit of $200.00 through Paypal within 24 hours of auctions end. Remaining balance to be paid by cashiers check or cash in person within 3 business days of auctions end. Serious bidders only please.”
