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 .
Given the colors, this is likely a former Shriner Jeepster.

“1948 Willy’s jeepster. 305 ci edelbrock intake and Holley Carb, headers. Heads redone last year. Needs 2 side vent windows and a new top. Frame is there but needs fabric. Inspected, runs and drives”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $13,000.
Still needs some work to complete restoration, but unclear what that is. It looks in good shape.

Seller believes this to be the original paint, but I don’t see this as an option with the paint chips from 1948-1949.

“This is a 1971 Super rare Hurst edition Jeepster Commando. From research there is apparently only about 150 of these made that were sent to the HURST company to have some graphics added, hood scoop, tach and few other accessories. This one is a manual transmission and from all appearances appears to the original transmission which makes this one even possibly more rare. The trim tag and markings on the firewall are consistant with Hurst edition markings. The emblems on the hood are there, but are pitted a little bit.
I had hoped to get to this Jeep, but just not going to happen and it needs to go to a worthy home to get fully saved. It does need a full gone through or restoration. Almost all the pieces are there, The motor is in it, but has not been turned over. The radiator is not in place. The original hood scoop is not there but I do have a new old stock hood but it is not in perfect condition. Certainly usable for a restoration but not perfect. We could not find or have the original tach that was mounted in the hood scoop. Continue reading

“I got a 1969 Jeepster. It is missing the top. Other than that everything is there. I rebuilt the engine 8 months ago but haven’t had a chance to actually drive the car since I have so many so I decided to let this one go. You will have to tow the car if you decide to buy it”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7999.
This seems like a good price, but this sounds like a dealer. Maybe the price isn’t serious? No engine or interior pics included in the ad.
