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 .
Seth and Goose both spotted this rare truck for sale.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $9500.
These are rare jeeps.
“For sale. 1984 AMC Jeep CJ8 Alaskan postal version (right hand drive!!!). It has an inline 258 6-cylinder and is an automatic (very rare for older jeeps) 4×4. Floor shift with floor-mounted, hand-operated emergency brake. It fires right up, does run smoothly and drive, but needs some TLC. The left front fender is dented; there is some rust in the right side front rocker; and the driver’s (right side) floor pan will need replacing. It also slips a little in second. No rust in tub, wheel wells or reinforced frame. Still has AMC/Jeep mud flaps attached.
Here in the U.S., the Cj-8 Scrambler was marketed mainly as workman like pickup. The Alaskan postal service ordered 230 Cj-8s equipped with the world cab , side opening “barn door” and insulating foam sprayed in the entire cargo area to ensure the mail indeed did get delivered. This jeep is still 85% USPS complete and would make a great candidate for a full postal restoration. You can see where the old USPS stripes and logos were, as well as the USPS unit number on the front windshield and back door. Even has the original postal herringbone cloth seat! 132,000 original miles. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to own this rare RHD model of an already rare Jeep!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8000.
Probably very few of these in the states. Glenn spotted this one.
“1963 Volvo L3304
Vehicles Specifications
Stock #: 008Z
Year: 1963
Make: Volvo
Model: L3304
Vin Number: 8Z
Int. Color: Green
Ext. Color: Green
Transmission: Manual
Description:
Here is a 1963 Volvo L3304 that was built with the familiar 4 cylinder B18 engine which is found in Volvo car models such as the PV 544, Amazon (122S) and the 144 series throughout the 1960’s. Its rugged cast iron block, 5 main bearing crankshafts proved indestructible and would run forever. This “Fast Attack” anti tank Light Reconnaissance vehicle served many functions including some applications requiring the mounting of a Bofors 90mm Anti-tank cannon capable of delivering an 8 pound projectile over 800 yards. This rare Swedish military vehicle is equipped with switchable 4X4 and low and high gearing. This early Volvo can bring any mans military fantasy come to life, while having the reliability of old school Volvo engineering.”

“This is a rare Ferves Ranger, a derivative of Fiat company, has a 500cc Fiat engine and drive components.
Between 1966 to 1971 There were only approx. 600 of this made, only about 50 known to be found, and only about 8 to 10 in the U.S.
This one is in excellent running condition, and drive fantastic.
This would be a perfect addition to a micro car collection or for a beach or mountain buggy.
Has current California title and personalized plate.”

“Got several Arizona Willys classics for sale. All need tender loving care but the bodies are in great shape and are pretty much complete (except the FC). Got a 1960 Willys pickup with the 226 Hurricane flathead 6. Got the Willys wagon that I had the upholstery done on, its in the shed. Got an awesome, pretty much rust free FC170 but its missing the engine and trans and seats. Restore to original or put your 4BT Cummings or whatever in it. Also have a running/ driving 1981 Jeep Wagoneer, the tranny needs work but I drove it up from Strawberry. Willing to deal to fund another salt racer but don’t lowball me please.
