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 .
Might have some parts value.

UPDATE: This article from the San Juan Record dated October 22, 1965, provides more information on Kent Frost’s jeep Ruby and his treks over Elephant Hill.
A better example of the photo appeared in the January 1966 Four Wheeler Magazine
=========================
Original Post November 08, 2016: In January of 1966, Four Wheeler Magazine reported that Kent Frost’s CJ-5 Ruby had surpassed 100,00 miles. During that time Frost estimated he had crossed Elephant Hill 195 times through all kinds of weather, both day and night. Fittingly, the birthday celebration was held at the top of the hill. Here are a few pics of Ruby:

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.
This could be a good price. I can’t tell if it was a DJ-3A, CJ-3B or a CJ-5.

Dont ask if its available. If the add is up, it’s for sale. I’m in the Placerville area. 95667”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $5500. IT appears the hardtop is no longer included with the sale.
(10/30/2020) Seller listed this as an “M606 CJ3B”, but I don’t see any M-606 here.

Has an head. Needs the transmission reinstalled.
“I pulled the transmission and transfer out to replace the seals and went down the rabbit hole. All new herrings, shafts, and gears in the T90 but I stalled out and it’s been sitting in the garage for 3 years. The soft top is brand new. I’ve got all new engine and tranny mounts. Previous owner did a lot of work including the 12 volt conversion and swapping to the F4 engine.”
Listed as a 1944, this seems to be a CJ-2A body and chassis. No title.

“1944 Willys Jeep, this is a project. The engine is missing a few parts. I pulled this Jeep out of a field, the hood and fenders wasn’t on the Jeep. I shot the primer to show it can be a great project. I have another Jeep that has same engine, I can let you have that engine also, if you pull it. Come take a look. Comes with bill of sale”
This may make a good project.
