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 .
Runs and drives. Looks like there’s some passenger side body rust.

“1948 Willy-Overland Jeepster VIN VJ310820, , with 63 HP 4 cylinder flat head engine. Has no rust, runs well. Has directional lights, radio, fog lights, and 2 sets of side curtains. One set are canvas and plastic like the originals, the others are clear acrylic plastic 3/16’ thick. There is no rust. The exterior is in very good condition except that there is a ¾” dia. bubble in the paint on the hood. The interior is also in very good condition. The floor rugs have been replaced as well as the seat covers. The roof is also in very good condition. I keep a 50 weight oil in the engine to maintain a good oil pressure at all times. The air filter on the engine is not original.

The chrome is in good shape and is not pitted.

At the very least the Koenig half top is for sale, but the wording of the ad makes it sound to me that other body parts come with it?

These 1958 Jeepers Jamboree photos reside in the UC David digital archives. They were taken by Jervie Henry Eastman.
Eastman also shot this photo of Ted Corder’s Willys dealership, located in Susanville, California. I’d say this was taken in the late 1940s?
