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 is a project. I was going to do a rat rod but going back to boats. It is setting on a S10 frame and is rolling but has no motor transmission or interior. I do have the title and purchase plates and tags for it that are current.”
Andy spotted this project early wagon.

“1962 Willys Wagon. Purchased to complete ongoing restoration but life plans have changed. Runs and drives. Took on several local camping trips up nine mile and fish creek this summer with no issues. Needs to be dialed in but runs well.

New speedometer was installed with new motor with around 300 miles. Vacuum driven wipers converted to electric. 12-volt wiring. Body is very straight. original patina paint. Has some rust on driver’s side quarter panel on edge of fender well, could be repaired or new panels a readily available. No other rust issues including solid floor. New bucket seats installed.

This updated delivery sedan looks in good shape. The “smog check” image is just a wrap.

“1958 Willy’s 4X4 wagon from California, it has a rebuilt 226 FH Hurricane 6-cylinder engine and a 3-speed manual transmission, new clutch and a Warn overdrive. It has a decent medium green paint job and a creamy white top. Most of the big-ticket items have been rebuilt or replaced including complete brakes, all welded exhaust with a Magna Flow muffler, recent alignment, new Toyo Open Country 235-85R-16 tires and rims on and on. It’s a decent running driver with a few things for you to finish up. I have a lot/most of the parts and pieces needed to finish it up and a lot of other parts as well. You’re looking at $12,000.00 CASH and make sure that you have a signed permission slip from your wife in hand before you pick up the phone.”
