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 .
Here’s a unique project Roger Martin shared.

“Male jeep rat truck sitting on Toyota frame has 355 Chevy with 400 turbo ready to drive anywhere new build about 35 miles cell with or without running gear”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $12,000.
(01/17/2020) Has a few updates, but a lot of stock DJ-3A Convertible, including the rare air filter. Note also the Kaiser speedometer (has a big K on it, but I don’t know what model used it). It doesn’t look all that bad (better than a new speedo would).

“All there except carb(I’d get a Weber) and rear driveshaft. Ford ts 1.6. (Pinto engine super nice in these!!)The clutch and adapter kit are all new. Tires good. Yes its got a 2a window but it’s a 3a. Clear nonop title in my name.
Long story short got it from a guy who the city hassled because it was a project in front of his house a number of years ago.
Now I realize I won’t get to it so it’s your chance!!”
The M-38A1D is the nuclear model.

“2 jeeps for sale selling as a pair. You could take the 2 and make a nice jeep as all the parts are the same. 1 jeep is a 1957 CJS with engine and transmission that ran good 2 years ago until starter went out. The other is a military M38A1 that had a cannon mount on the back, no motor has transmission. 2000.00 for both”
M-38A1D:
1957 CJ-5:
This might be worth a look. Its not clear if the seller is selling both or not. Perhaps it is $2000/ per tub?
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/671241510341837/
“Willys Jeep tub – exact reproduction – primed – price is firm”
There could be some water/rust in cylinder #4.

“Willys Jeep engine and tranny sold as is $500 obo”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(03/29/2020) This militarized CJ-2A lacks front frame horns and seems to lack the holes for the CJ-2A positioned key. So, either this has had some work or it’s not a CJ-2A frame and body.

“Newly restored 1940s Willys Jeep. Has New OD Green Canvas Top (Not In Pics) This is about as good as it gets.”
In May of 1960 there was a Pepsi contest that offered a Pepsi-styled DJ-3A Surrey as the first prize. Subsequently, in July of 1960, there was a second contest, Pepsi’s Sociable Sweepstakes, where another Pepsi-styled DJ-3A Surrey was given away. Learn more about the Pepsi Surreys at the CJ-3B Page.
Contest 1: This ad appeared in the May 05, 1960, issue of the Miami Daily News-Record, Oklahoma. To enter the contest, folks had to fill out and mail in this entry blank, “Pepsi Cola, The ___________ Refreshment”. This was a nearly-full-page ad (this version of the ad shown below is slightly different from the one on the CJ-3B page; it can also be found in this Miami, Oklahoma, newspaper).
This next image demonstrates just how large the ad was:
Contest 2: Two months later, Pepsi announced its Sociable Sweepstakes in July of 1960. The contest was part of Pepsi’s Sociable advertising campaign and it, too, offered a Pepsi-styled DJ-3A Surrey as the first prize. The ad below was published in the July 18, 1960, issue of the Greenville News, Greenville, South Carolina. The ad was another large one, taking up most of the page.
