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 .
It doesn’t run, but it has potential.

The one pic suggests this might be a Safari-Kar, but more pics are necessary.

(12/21/2018) This hunting jeep includes a feeder on the back.
“This 1946 Willys Jeep has a new engine that runs great – it was rebuilt a few years ago and has less than 1,000 miles on it. The Jeep also has a Warn winch, brush guard, feeder, solid tires, and a hunting high-seat for 2 persons.”
I stumbled onto the below video of the Bolide XJ-002 after doing some searches based on the post related to the XJ-001. The video is part of a larger All-Par article (see more photos here).
Now I’m wondering if the Parmely body was based originally on this XJ-002 body design. The Parmley looks like it’s a little more practical, convertible version of the XJ-002.
Unlike the XJ-002, which was designed on a Jeepster Commando chassis, the XJ-001 was atop a CJ-5 chassis. The Parmely was also designed to fit a CJ-5 chassis, so its lines couldn’t be as long nor sleek as the XJ-002.
The video isn’t the most compelling piece of work, but it manages to record some unusual history. As of 2010, this vehicle was reportedly undergoing restoration.
This is a press photo of the XJ 001. If you don’t remember, this prototype jeep was built on the CJ-5 chassis and power by the 360CI AMC V-8. Essentially, it was a 4WD muscle car. You can read about the vehicle on Hemmings. Unfortunately, the prototype was destroyed in an accident as it was being transported. The article also indicates some folks called the 1998 Jeepster prototype the ACT II of the XJ-001.

Here’s a photo from the internet that shows the front:
This may be a CJ-3A with a CJ-2A body.

“CJ- 2A Jeep Willy’s for sale. Mostly original. Very clean. Runs great. Waren Wench on the front. Tow bar on front bumper also. Extra set of wheels and tires for quieter smoother street usage. New exhaust system and brake lines. Registered non-op currently. Pink slip in hand. Clean title.”

Includes a plow.
“48 willys jeep excellent shape no rust or dents. Kept in garage for 35 years. Has a detachable snow plow. Jeep has never seen much 4 wheeling.”
Has updates, but sure looks good for the price.

“Cj5
Scout axles
Tubbed frame
4.3 lt v6
Larger gas tank

This appears to have a PTO, a PTO winch and an overdrive. Could be a good price. It also has what is probably a later model (cj-3a/dj-3a) flathead for some reason.
