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 .
UPDATE: Still Available.

A guy in Seattle sold several lots of jeep stuff from his collection on eBay and I was a the fortunate recipient. So, Merry Christmas to me! The items that particularly interested me were the two different Baier lighters and the two wooden jeep pipes.
The Baier lighters were heavier and in better shape than I expected, while the two wooden pipes are both from France, each with engraved differently on the bottom.
The jeep toys range in quality, but I didn’t have any of them, so they were just a fun bonus.
Here’s a close up of the two Baier lighters. To ignite the lighter on the large jeep with the map on the top, you turn the door handles (either the passenger side and drivers side). Turning the handle releases the hood piece, causing the lighter to spark (no fuel in it currently). The smaller jeep is the same principle, only there’s a single button above the driver’s door and the lighter piece that pops up is in the top, not the hood.
My growing collection of jeep lighters and smoking related jeeps hasn’t been planned, but does seem to be growing….
Jesse shared this FJ-3 ornament information. Last year, I posted about Sesame Street’s use of an FJ-3 as Cookie Monster’s Foodie Truck. What I didn’t know was that Jesse sold an FJ-3 that was renovated into real Cookie Monster Foodie Truck that is now at Disney World in Orlando, Florida. But, it doesn’t serve food. Instead, it is a kids interactive challenge (there’s an online version at PBS):

Here’s another one:

“Offered is an original WWII time period photograph. It belonged Lt. Salvador Joseph Cuttitta who was enlisted with the 6th Armored Infantry and trained with 1st Armored Division.

This unusual poster shows a pretty complete list of production civilian jeeps (though no FC-150). It advertises Jeep Parts out of Portland, Oregon, and is priced at $99, but the seller is accepting offers. It was an Oregon company.

“This a Koenig Crank Shaft Winch Bracket for a Willys Jeep CJ 2A, 3A, 3B. Extremely rare bracket. Condition is used. Sold as is. Ask questions first. Shipped with FEDEX.”
This appears to have a replacement body, not an M-38 body.

“1946 Willys Jeep for restoration. Jeep needs to be gone through, motor needs rebuild. Jeep is a good and straight canidate for restoration, has rust in front floors and side cowl panels.
I believe this jeep is a combination of a civilian CJ2a and a military M38. It looks like someone put an m38 tub on a civilian Cj2a frame. The previous owner told me he ran the numbers on the motor and it came back as a C2a.
There is no title on this vehicle as it predates when titles were issued, and I do not have a registration for it. Bill of sale only”
UPDATE: Status Unknown. Was $5200.
Listed as a 1974, this is a 1956-1963 CJ-6. I see no data plate that indicates this was ever in the military. Strangely, a dummy head appears in a few of the shots.
“I have 1974 JEEP Army Willy for sale. Manual trans. Got clean PA title. Need some repairs. It is Long Wheel Base rare to find 8 seater. Runs and drives. In decent condition. A lot of potential. First come first serve. As is”
No shots of the bed, but it appears sound.
