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 .

“I have two project jeeps. 1967 commando half cab, no tranz or t case. It has the v6 in it still but it does not run. The other is a 1960 cj6, 4cyl engine that is stuck. Rear body is rusty. I have titles for both. Both would make great rock crawlers. They are a little rough for restoration projects imo. 1000.00 each. No texts, calls only”

UPDATE: Still Available.
Could make a good project. Engine is stuck.
“I’m selling a very restorable 1949 Willys Overland Jeepster. I bought it with the intention to do a full restoration but I’ve found something else that I want to restore. If you’re into original or Mod this is a good place to start. It’s probably 98% complete. The frame is solid with no issues. The floors and rockers need panels which are available. The drivetrain is complete and intact. Missing the air cleaner. The motor is stuck so the jeep is not currently running. These are the last of the American Phaeton and were only built for 3 years. 1949 is the lowest production year with only 2960 built. Restore it to original or put a small block v8 into it. They are nice looking cars when done. Asking $3900”

Seller lists this project as a 1946, but these weren’t produced until 1948. Maybe some value here?
“I believe this is a 1946 willys jeepster. Bows are still there for top, Chevy subframe. make a great ratrod or parts.”

Looks solid, though it sounds as if it might need a tuneup or something.

It’s rare Jeepster (1/10), but needs work.
“We purchased this Hurst 8/2/2011 from Pittsburgh. A private collector had it in storage in Utah for a while. Since we’ve had it we having done the following
Front seat recovered
Transmission seal replaced
Engine rebuilt
10″ drum conversion
Installed power assist brake system
New shocks
New tires
Front bumper restored
New heater core
79,316 miles on old engine
Vehicle is currently non running. New engine installed ( zero time), transmission and transfer case installed. Linkage needs to be reinstalled. Electric system needs to be reinstalled. Fuel lines & water lines need to be hooked up. Some rust on front floor pans and rocker panels. Tailgate has usual rust for a Jeep. Was a great runner, but was rebuilt due to thrown rod. Had PA inspection in 2012. Has not run since 2013 when engine transmission and transfer case were removed.
We have increasing run out of time for this project , we would love to sell it to someone who would enjoy it more.”

Looks solid.
“1950 JEEPSTER which had an amateur restoration 8-10 years ago. The body is solid and the paint is still shinny . A new interior was installed as was a new top. The engine runs fine and most everything else operates.
I haven’t used the Jeepster for years so this Spring I put on new brakes, had the drums turned , flushed the gas tank and installed a new 6 volt battery. It is lots of fun to drive around town and short distances. Good acceleration and easy to maneuver, so taking the grand kids for ice cream on a summer’s evening will be a memory maker.
The speedometer doesn’t work and there are a few scratches that could use a touch up. I’m asking $8500.00 which is a fair price according to Hagerty. ”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7500.
Could be an ex-shriner’s Jeepster.
“1949 Jeepster, with F head 6 cylinder motor. Very good condition.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(12/04/2014) Needs TLC of some kind.
“1949 Willys Jeepster 4 cyl. 3 speed manual on colum.
Just tuned , starts runs, converted to 12 volt, new exhaust, has newer top, has all the side curtians with clear plastic. paint is very dull but could be wet sanded and buffed, still needs a lil TLC, but worth the effort.”

Seth spotted this unusual Jeepster.
“YES I know Willys never made a 4 WD Jeepster but we did. This car was built in the late 60”s By an engineer in Utah. It was almost completed when he passed away. I bought the car from the estate three years ago finished it here at the shop.
Its powered by a new 1965 Buick Wildcat 401 nailhead engine delivery 400 lbs of torque to the drive train. It has a 3 speed T-90 trans and a Warn all range overdrive. It has high /low range, 2wheel/4 wheel drive and power take off for the winch. The top and interior and carpet and side curtains are all new. The chrome is very nice and the paint good but not perfect. NO RUST EVER. It has all new brakes and new tires. It has a new Edelbrock 600 CFM carb New aluminum radiator, and the engine only has 300 miles on it for testing. This is truly a unique well designed, versatile Jeepster. It will climb mountains and pull down a tree as well as do highway speeds.”
