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 had planned to do more updates last night but time got away from me. So, I’ll try to do some later today at some point.
This FC caught fire.

The maker of this midwest, rear-flared fiberglass body is still a mystery to me.

“Complete 1946 CJ2A chassis and powertrain. No body. Most of the wiring is there along with gauges, switches, etc. Steering column and box. Newer shocks. Engine was supposedly rebuilt but leaked engine oil pretty bad out of the rear main. I did drive it once before disassembly. Has a newer aluminum radiator. I have a new seal and pan gasket that comes with it. Frame is in really good shape. I did have to cut a small piece to rescue the original serial tag for my new frame I’m building. Ask questions price is $2500.”
Between the race jeep, more planters for Ann, and getting our irrigation systems running, we are pretty busy, so I’m going to take a week off of eWillys. See ya next week.
A ran-when-parked situation.

“1954 Willy’s CJ3B jeep. Small block Chevy 305 engine, turbo 400 automatic. New NDT tires, freshly powder coated original wheels. New seats that need bolted in. Ran when parked but needs tank cleaned out, can fire it up to show you it runs on starting fluid. Will need to trailer it home. Clean title.”
Unclear how much value is here.

“Older Jeep in pieces. Tub, 2 frames one custom made to accept a chevy v6. Original motor and Trans with it. Will entertain offers, and trades. Dakota truck, bangs, ammo. Title is included. If it’s posted it’s available. Moving sale. Will post more items.”
UPDATE: A big thanks to Bill who located Frank near the seller. Frank was happy to pick up the items for me and put them in the mail. So many great folks out there!
There is a seller who has a collection of Willys booklets (some manuals and a Willys Equipment binder) that he is willing to sell me for $125, but he’d prefer to have someone local pick them up.
So, is there anyone who could drop by his place in/near Topton, PA, pay him, pick them up, then mail them to me? I can PayPal or send you a check for the gas, time and postage.
No title, but there seems to be value.

Anyone run into the following message after trying to comment?
Apparently, that’s a new feature for one of WordPress’ security plugins (or new to me). Essentially, as I understand it, if too many bots attack the user login screen, a blanket “citadel” is activated, blocking comments (and probably other things). I too had problems trying to comment just now, and figured out that the “citadel” was blocking me. So, if you see that, feel free to email me and I’ll get it fixed.
