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 spent Friday driving to Portland to pick up a Dale Model die cast jeep, so no time to do updates. More on the jeep Sunday morning. Enjoy your weekend!
Will alerted me that the FC Forward Forum is temporarily down. It was taken down for a supposed violation of the TOS, though I’d be surprised if the forum violated the TOS. There seems to be a way to contact the host and appeal this issue. Anyone know who the administrator(s) were?
Updates return on Sunday.
This has a replacement body.

“1949 Willys Jeep, drives and runs well. Mostly original. Owned for 25 years. Includes soft top and doors. New battery. Includes tow bar.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** $1800.
(10/26/2019) This project has been built with a 2WD axle up front.
“1950 Willys CJ-3A, rolling chassis only. Post office jeep front axle, body is straight, have windshield frame and old glass, this is a project jeep for sure, floors need some work but body is in good shape. Comes with tow bar and working tail/ brake lights, I have some SBC engine parts but nothing complete.”
Just a video update today. We went camping this weekend along the Columbia River in Vantage. It was a wind blown affair, so being outside wasn’t all that great, but being inside as the wind raged outside was pretty cozy.
Updates resume Tuesday morning.
Good news! I will be extending eWillys in its current form through the end of 2020.
You might remember that on January 1st of this year I mentioned I was planning on ending or making changes to eWillys in the spring of 2020. I’ve decided to delay any changes until December of 2020.
The principal reason for this is to insure that Ann and I have a smoother transition from life as we know it into our new lives in 2020, should things work out like we believe they will. What this means for you all is that you will accompany Ann and I on these upcoming changes. I know this is all a bit vague, but that’s the way it has to be for now.
So, stay tuned!
Updates resume Tuesday morning.
UPDATE: My ewillys email account is being rebuilt by my host. So, it remains offline.
If you need to contact me, use d@deilers.com. This issue will likely last for a couple more days.
Many thanks!
Ann and I will be making a very quick trip down to California to visit my daughter in Walnut Creek for the weekend. I may be out of service for much of today as we drive down central Oregon, so don’t expect any quick email (d @ deilers.com) replies today.
