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 .
Runs, but powered with f-head.

You don’t see this everyday.
“1950 Jeepster with 7.3 turbo diesel, 6 speed manual, 4 wheel drive. Clean title. Stretched and lifted with procomp springs on 37 in tires. New interior. Just built from the ground up. Have pics and documents of build. Dont need to sell but am ready for the next project. Would trade for nice lifted Cherokee or old mussel car that needed a little work. I think trade value is around 8k. Text for more info and pics”

Has potential.
“Hi, this is a 1949 Jeepster needing full restoration. The Jeep is complete minus a new cloth top (all bows and rear window are present) the antenna and the stainless strip on the hood-all other trim is present, she will need new tires as they are very old. You can jump on the front fender bottoms and the rear steps as they are very solid, there is rust through in the front floors and the outer rockers-both have amateur patches. She comes with a bill of sale and many old Connecticut registrations. Asking $4,900 or willing to trade for a 1930’s car or truck…I am willing to add cash if yours is worth more. ”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3000.
Needs some work, but there may be value here. “Dad” certainly loved it.
“My brother and I inherited this from our Dad and don’t really care to put the effort into it. We do have all of the original parts, there is some damage on the front end, after it was in an accident it was literally moved to every house we lived in. My Dad’s first car he refused to part with it. There are some things brand new that he purchased, still in boxes. It’s obviously a project car but not in that bad of condition considering. We have pink slip although he used to register it every year, I think that fell to the wayside when he got sick.”
UPDATE: Was $5600. **SOLD**
Might be a good project.
“This original flat head 4 cylinder 1949 Willys Jeepster is as unmolested as you’ll find. It runs and drives and has a good drivetrain, but is not a driver. It needs a full restoration. Both the front suspension and rear axle has been rebuilt. The driveshaft and the brakes (including new drums) are all rebuilt. There are various new parts, which have been installed so this can be started and driven, and any work completed has been done properly. The radiator has been rodded out, new water pump, hoses (oil and water), plugs, distributer, wires, rebuilt carb, new steering wheel, etc….. The wiring is shot, and is only wired to start and has brake lights. However, a new OE style harness is included.
