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 .

“Selling Dauntless 225 engine block and several parts. I have refurbished the valve covers to include original paint and “Dauntless” jeep decals. I have oil pan that is dented but can be repaired and reused as well as original heavy fly-wheel. I have a few other parts not shown and your welcome to them. Also included is 2 and a partial 3rd cans of green original match paint used on the valve covers.
This is a great V6 block that can be rebuilt to be odd-fire as it was originally or even-fire and makes a great engine in smaller jeep projects. I will accept cash only and am willing to negotiate delivery locally.”
If you are in the market for a 225, this may be a good candidate.

Early edition “Patent Pending” (the more desirable model) Offenhauser 360 dual port manifold, Kenne Bell valve train assembly with billet tip roller rocker arms and other high quality parts.

No pics provided. This might make a good upgrade.
“Ive got a ford 2.3 turbo motor that I was going to use in a Willy’s jeep swap ended up selling the jeep so Im looking to sell the motor. The motor came out of a 88 thunderbird ran when pulled. Ive also got all the wiring harness’s, ecu’s, and various other parts to complete the motor. I converted it to an aluminum oil pan off an ford ranger 2.3 motor and also put roller rockers in the head from the ford ranger motor, along with a new timing belt. Im sure It’ll have to be torn down further for gaskets and such due to just sitting on a stand in my garage now for a few years. Tough engines to find now, I also have all the adapters and “pinto” bellhousing to go with the motor if your interested so this will adapt to an early cj2a or cj3a with the T-90 transmission.”
