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 .
Tom shared this nice looking late model Jeepster Commando with a few mods.

“Unique and fun vehicle! Unknown miles on it; drives great. Heat works; 304 V8 engine, 400 turbo automatic transmission, Dana 20 transfer case.”
Bill shared this auction for a Jeepster chassis and body with no bids, but there are additional jeeps in the auction:

“Up for sale a 1969 Jeep Commander, was used by the Red Cross in the Military. It is a savage title issued in Pennsylvania, it was formerly abandoned .It has a rust free body and frame, the floor needs work, The V6 engine runs off a can of gas and has 3 speed manual transmission, new dual exhaust, will need a gas tank, I took the old one off and realized I don’t like that kind of work, so I’m selling it and trying to get my investment back. PS the frame has surface rust but good.$6500.00 or best offer”
I thought this commando has an unusual soft top. Was this a standard or third party option? I can’t remember seeing another. This has a nice looking warn winch on the front, too.

Has good tires on it. Warn wench on front works. CB radio inside. Serious inquiries only. 7K OBO. No trades”
UPDATE: Still Available. As Colin notes, Jeepster weren’t produced until 1948.
(08/04/2023) This is pretty unique and appears well done.

“Trailer made from a 47 jeep Willy’s “Jeepster” Flat griddle grill under the hood, propane bottle, big ice chest, old school centerline wheels with spare, good tires, light and pulls straight and easy. 2in ball. 2,500obo or trade”
This seems worth a look at this price.

“1967 Jeepster Commamdo Runs, drives and stops as it should. This is an old Jeepster. The questions in the past have been: what is the top speed, will it make a 1000 trip, what is the mileage? I answer the same way to each one of these: it’s a 56 year old Jeepster”
It’s been parked for a few years.

“1950 Willys Jeepster, Jeep ran when it was parked about 5 years ago. Needed break lines. Pads swelled up wile it sat. Had to pull them to get it to roll. I’m posting this for my mother. I forgot to look at the mileage. I believe it’s around 40k. If posting is still up, it’s available. The longer it’s here, the more I’ll get done to it. I plan to get it running first. Then it will get brake lines. Which also means the price goes up. Please, don’t send us low ball or pointless messages offering half price. I get messages constantly. We have planned to sell this for over a year. I’ve watched the auctions. I’ve seen some that are far worse go for 20k. The price is 13k… That’s what we need. Show me one for less.. And it’s yours for the price.”
Seller says it has a vibration problem. Might be worth a look.

“I bought this but have other jeep priorities. It starts and runs but had a vibration at over 25 mph. It’s been in my barn for 2 years. Firm on the price. Thanks. Would consider interesting trade”
Now here’s a combo you don’t see often. TJ spotted this Jeepster body on a 1961 Ford Wagon drivetrain. Thanks to Race for correcting me.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/598293555825225
“1948 Willys Jeepster. Been in storage for many years. Has the drivetrain from a 1961 Ford wagon. 292Y block, auto and rear end. It was running and the transmission shifts into and out of gear. That was what I was told a few years ago when I bought it. Body if fairy solid for the year. Will need a few patch panels. Convertible top bows are all there and intact. New Tires and Wheels Great restoration project.”
And this is a picture of a 1961 Ford Wagon (according to the internet … I wouldn’t know):
UPDATE: Status Unknown. Was $22,500.
Stan is selling his recently restored Jeepster Commando. He did a great job! You can learn more about his work here: http://earlycj5.com/xf_cj5/index.php?threads/115096/
