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 .
I thought I’d posted this issue already, but apparently I’d only posted portions. So, here’s the full issue.
This ad was produced by Willys-Overland of Canada Limited.

“1947 Canadian Willys-Overland print ad Willys Jeep. Original paper item measures 10 X 14 inches (approx.).”
This Willys-Overland of Canada Limited wagon ad is listed as a 1945 ad, but given the wagon wasn’t introduced until mid-1946, I’d say that date is a mistake. The text mentions the “new, rugged Willys Trucks”, which weren’t introduced until mid-1947. That style of wagon was used in numerous 1948 ads and the Willys-Overland graphic made an appearance in some of the 1948 ads, too. The lack of any mention of the wagon being a jeep is curious, as Willys-Overland didn’t make a big push on dropping ‘Jeep’ from its advertising until late 1949.

(12/16/2019) Looks like a well-built jeep sporting a Bobcat hood.

“All original WW2 Jeep. Complete and running. Includes new military non directional tires mounted on original combat rims. Includes matched spare tire also on combat rim. Top and seat covers were recently replaced (new original style). Was told engine has been recently rebuilt and probably has less than 200 miles on it. Appears to have been originally painted olive drab, but has since been painted Navy gray. Had planned on returning paint color to olive drab and purchased 1 gallon of paint which will be included in sale. Bumpers are in very good condition and very well could be originals.
Brakes work well enough to stop it, but could use some maintenance. Has been stored under cover. Park brake not hooked up and lights will need to be rewired. Original 6 volt system with 8 volt battery.”

UPDATE: Still Availalble.
(02/05/2019) Seller includes pics of the rebuild on the ad. Brakes need fixing.

“This is an original RARE 1961 Willy’s Jeep CJ-3B. The last of the flat fender. Frame off restoration, engine rebuilt, new transmission, new transfer case, new shift tower, new exhaust, new suspension, new battery, and so much more. Frame and body is coated with an expensive rust proof paint, then primed, and then final paint. My husband poured his heart, money and soul into this jeep, with intentions of keeping it forever. This is not an altered or modified jeep, it has been purposely kept original for value sake, which is what makes it so rare. He has kept all the replaced components and has invested over $15,000 into this, plus two years of his time and labor. Open to offers, but please don’t insult me, this is worth every penny. Need to sell ASAP thanks“
UPDATE: Still Available.
(10/24/2019) Looks solid.
