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 .
Has some later model hubcaps that might have been from a pink DJ-3A Surrey.

“No documents – selling as is. $1200 or best offer, but go this weekend. Unsure of year, assuming 1948-1954.”
Dave alerted me to this auction. The 1951 doesn’t have any photos just yet.
Now this looks like a barn find, one someone covered and put away. I wouldn’t call it a barn-find price, but looks like it has potential.

“1948 Willys Jeepster. All original barn find, 4cyl ran and drove when parked. 6v system, convertible top, manual tranny. Vehicle is in great shape for its age with very little rot. Would make a great restoration candidate or clean it up, refresh the mechanicals and drive it like it is.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(11/08/2016) One runs and has rust. The other looks more solid, but doesn’t run.

“here i have a pair of jeepsters in need of some love but plenty to work with. these are very limited production jeeps coming after the willys jeeps, but before amc took them over these are prior to the cj5, the cj7 and are very very rare the yellow one is the 1970 and the blue is the 1967
the first is a 1967 jeepster revival series convertible with the roadster package and a rare automatic transmission. it does not run but has tons of potential $5800 . I have a spare dauntless v6 motor to go with the jeep the motor was fine in this one is has been sitting for about 5 years.
the second of the two is a 1970 jeepster commando recent convertible top has the dauntless v6 that does run and a manual transmission this also comes with a plow setup $ 4700
both of these jeepsters are the kaiser built models not the later amc models the 1970 is actually the last year they were still built by kaiser

(03/20/2018) I thought this was going to be all stock. I was surprised to see the V8.

“The 1950 Willy’s Jeepster is perhaps one of the most overlooked vehicles on the market today. Restored or modified Jeepster have sold for over $45,000.
This Jeepster has a 350 Corvette Engine with an Automatic Turbo 400 transmission. New brakes, top, seats, gauges, and additional parts.
Easy and fun to drive!
The Jeepster runs and drives great and always brings a BIG “Thumps Up” wherever she goes.
Willing to accept a reasonable offer or interesting trade.”
Not sure how much value is here.

“350 chevy

“This is a real head turner, and is a fun driver quality ride. Powered by a 4 bolt chevy 350 with a turbo 400 transmission, both came out of a 30,000 mile motor home.
New carburetor and a new convertible top. Porta-wall white wall tires, for that correct period look.”
Looks promising.

“This is a 1949 Willys Jeepster Phaeton Project. It is nearly complete and the body and frame have been media blasted, The frame was then primered and painted gloss black enamel w/hardener. The body has no dents and was primered. This will make an easy restoration project, a killer hot rod project or a gnarly off roader. It is all original with no modifications and comes with the original 3 speed transmission with overdrive.
There is no engine but I have a GM 3.8 V6 available. These will accommodate engines from the original 4 cyl. flathead to a small block V8. Parts for these cars are readily available and inexpensive from several sources both new and used.
These are the last of the Phaetons that were produced and there were only about 6000 1949’s made. These Phaetons were only made for 3 years. I have owned a jeep like this before and they are a blast to drive as everyone who sees it gives you the thumbs up and crowds around it when you park.”
Austin shared this one. No description provided.

“I have 3 48-49 Willy’s jeepsters one was restored in the 80s but left outside you can make 2 cars and one sweet roadster hot rod most of the parts are there including crome clean titles to all 3 located in central Montana”
Not the best pics.
