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 .

(08/25/2010) Here’s a non-restored, beautiful Wagon.
“This is an UNRESTORED, original Willys Wagon. It has been maintained but not restored. The mileage is actual, and it drives as good as it looks. It is not a mint vehicle. The paint has been refreshed at some time, but the old paint was not removed. I suspect it was getting faded. There is very minor surface rust, but I could find no spots that have bubbled through. The vehicle was either factory or dealer undercoated, and this coupled with dry climate and inside storage has preserved it. I had started some detailing under the hood, but there is plenty of work to be finished.
This wagon was originally purchased from Bob Jones Motors in Denver. It was taken to Montana where inside storage and infrequent use preserved it. The interior is unbelievable. the seats are still near perfect, and the grass cloth headliner is uncut and in perfect condition. The wind welt has begun to deteriorate, and I ordered new to replace it. I couldn’t bring myself to do it, as the original red fleck pattern is no longer available, and it is factory original. This has to be one of the best preserved original Willys wagons of this vintage. It comes with an original owners manual, and it’s original jack.
The wheel covers are from a later model. They came with the vehicle, they look good, so I left them on. As far as I know the only non functioning system is the wipers. At some time they were converted to electric, and the currently don’t work. All of the necessary parts to reconvert to vacuum come with the vehicle, along with a number of sare parts that I have gathered over time.”
