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 1949 Willys Jeepster has reportedly spent its life in Ontario, Canada and was acquired by the seller last year. Finished in blue and white over a blue vinyl interior, the truck is powered by a 134ci L-head inline-four linked to a column-shifted three-speed manual gearbox. The fluids and filters were serviced in November 2019, and a safety inspection was performed. This Jeepster is offered with a replacement canvas top, spare wheels, and Ontario registration.”

“1950 Willys Jeepster, complete, original. Produced in Ohio from 1948-51. Just over 10k built. It was Jeep’s post-war effort at a family car. I have owned it since 1965 when I got my license at 16. It has not been driven since 1978. It has recently been fired up. Needs lots of TLC. Comes with a tow bar.”
No description provided. I’m guessing this doesn’t include a top.
