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 .
This seller is also selling the Jeepster below.

“1947 Willys Overland Wagon, also known as a Jeep Station Wagon. ZERO RUST. Drip rails and tailgate perfect. All stock body. I added the 1948 “Jeepster” T-Bar center that has the orig Willlys Script. The center bar on the hood is a new replacement of the orig. Drivers door is key lockable. Orig bumpers. Rear is re-chromed and has the Willys Overland Script.

Drive it home. Note: This is a used vehicle that’s 64 years old. But, it turns heads, not a typical run of the mill car and is easy to work on. Surf wagon, cruiser or hotrod.

“1950 Willys Overland Model 4-73 Station Wagon.
It’s equipped with 4 wheel drive with documented Georgia registration up until 1999 (paperwork included with sale). It’s history includes being part of a private collection of 24 Willys. It was painted in August of this year a custom PPG Blue color. The new owner should buff and polish to complete the job. There’s no rust on this Southern Willys. The engine was converted to a 1965 283 Chevy V8 with 12 volt electrical (by the previous owner) including new dual exhaust system. True miles unknown (odometer shows 4131, the Title shows 58463, and not sure how many miles are on the engine). Based on the solid body and nice overall condition, it is possible that the Title is correct. Engine runs strong, with no smoke, no odd noises, and still retains its original 3 speed standard transmission and 4 wheel drive transfer case, all mechanicals in good solid working condition. This Willys is not perfect, but is a good running and driving restoration project. It has the Willys rims with brand new period correct deep lug Tires, good brakes. The following tune up items were just completed; points, plugs, rotor, plug wires, oil and oil filter and fresh valve cover gaskets. Headlights and front turn signals work correctly. For this year Willys, the rear seats fold and the rear doors split open up and down. The wood floor strips are in great condition. The following items will require work; turn signal switch replacement (I have a similiar age universal unit to go with the car), headliner is missing, rear tail lights require wiring work,(they are standard universal units), Dash guages oil pressume and ammmeter functioning, drivers window is cracked, however I have a complete door with glass which goes with the car. It will need some window weatherstripping. See photo of additional parts that go with this Willys. The present original transmission this vehicle tops out at about 55 to 60 MPH.
