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 illustration was donated to the University of Toledo. It was drawn by Steven Escayne while was serving in Italy in 1944.You can see a few other illustrations by Steven drawn during the war in the Library’s collection here. Another website, https://toledosattic.org/exhibits/war-in-their-own-words also has some drawings by him.

“, I’ve attached some pictures of the 1950 CJ3A that I have to part with and am looking to find a home for. I’m really open to offers. Not in the pictures, is included the title for it and I have two mostly complete engines, one L head and one F-head that is for the post ’53 production models. The jeep is mostly there except it does not have any seat frames”
UPDATE: This was an M-38 only, but now appears to include a CJ-5.

“Early column shift 1946 Willy’s cj2a. Very rough! Front 1/3 of frame has been cobbled together, back half not terrible. Tub is beyond repair. Rear axle complete and rolls. Front axle missing pass side hub, brake, and leaf spring. Engine is missing parts but I believe it’s free, and has black oil in it still, I believe it’s a good rebuilder. Transmission and tcase there, condition unknown. No title. This was my yard art for many years but no where to keep it now”
