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 .
Glen pointed me to an intersting post at the OldWillysForum. The post is a link to a list of detailed specs for a 1957 Willys Utility Truck that John found on eBay. It’s pretty cool. Here is an example of one spec:

Here’s another rare truck with a dump bed. A red truck with a dump bed was sold out of Vacaville earlier this month.
“1962 1/2 Willys Jeep 4-Wheel Drive Pick-Up Truck with Dealer Installed Dump Bed – Registered as 1963 but according to the numbers it shows a production date of 1962 1/2. Dealer installed dump bed, I was told there was only 100 of these made and after a lot of research I only found a few in existence. All original, also a great truck for original restoration or custom, this is a real classic. Bone stock original California rust free Willys, its got a couple of little bubbles as big as your finger nail, but nothing major. Driver and passenger door glass is cracked, it’s flat glass and replacement parts are available. This truck has never been modified, it looks to have been painted many years ago, it was originally the blue you see on the interior pictures. This truck spent most of it’s life on a gold mine in Northern California’s gold country. I purchased this truck from the president of the local Willys Club with intentions to restore, but the wife isn’t warming up to the idea. This is a running registered road worthy vehicle, runs and drives as a ’62 1/2 Willys should. I just had new rear brakes installed, new master cylinder, oil changed, all fluids top off, and a full safety check done by the local Big O Tires.
From 1962-1965 – Willys Jeep used the 230 CID (3.8 L) 6-230 Tornado I6, It was available with only one transmission, the Borg-Warner T-90 three-speed manual. A Spicer 18 transfer case was used on WD models. The Timken 51540 was an early rear axle option, otherwise the Dana 53 was standard. The front axle was a Dana 25. A 5.38:1 differential ratio was standard.
Please ask any and all questions BEFORE bidding, and if you have zero 0 Feedback Please contact me before bidding. Buyer responsible for vehicle pickup and/or shipping. Good Luck and happy bidding, I have set the reserve at a very low price.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was listed at $5600.
“This 1948 Willys Overland pick-up is offered by the owner of the last 12 years. He had it re-painted upon purchase in 1999, and has used it for local driving and some parades over the years. He says it is all in good working order apart from a fuel gauge stuck on full, and included in the sale are his detailed records for work including valves and rings and electrical over the years, along with other service records from the previous owner back to 1987.”
UPDATE: Still Available
(11/09/2011) This looks solid.
“This is a 51 Willys Overland pickup. She runs well and would be excellent for restoration. It has the f134 motor in it and is mostly original parts. There are minor issues such as it needs a new wiring harness.and a good tune up to dial it in. There is some rust, but nothing real significant. It was given to me from my grandfather and I drove it from Spokane 10 years ago. It has been kept covered and dry. I have recently driven it around and she does fine. A video of it can be seen on youtube at 51willyspuyallup.give me a call to see it. Shawn 253 590 6146”
