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 .
Austin shared this one. It has a few unusual updates, including the strips along the side.

https://muskegon.craigslist.org/hvo/d/vintage-willys-air-compressor/6551939433.html
“This is a Willy’s Go Devil engine. This is an engine that has a conversion kit on it to make it into an air compressor. The engine is stuck, not blown up! The generator is missing also the air tank, air gauge, and fuel tank. I put some trans fluid in all of the cylinders about five months ago. The block is not cracked! It was built between 1945-1955. If you are restoring a Willy’s Jeep and need a engine this would work well for that.
I just don’t have the time to work on it right now, so I would rather re-home it than let it sit and collect dust any longer.”
UPDATE: Seller describes this as a GPW, but it’s a Willys (thanks guys).
Does not include the rifle. It might need some paint touch ups.

Original frame and drivetrain,except motor,motor is Willys .
Everything rebuilt and in proper working order.
Original body heavily corroded so a replacement bucket was sourced from a military surplus in New York .

Comes with manuals and receipts for work done.
Jeep has 100 miles or less on restoration.
Only used for car shows.
Frame was etch primed during restoration.
Military green topcoat is a little flaky in a few spots so a little touch up will be needed,spray can work.”
Looks interesting. Needs some snow removal.

https://sd.craigslist.org/cto/d/willys-jeep-1947/6555546352.html
“Willys Jeep – 1947 model. Makes an interesting parade, kids and adults both seem to like it. Or can be a project jeep if you want to rebuild to like new. 4 wheel drive works. Does run and can be licensed as is but it does smoke a little. Not licensed since 2007. Electrical system is 12 volt and starter rebuilt just before I quit licensing it. Ignition system was rebuilt before I purchased a number of years ago. Will slip out of 2nd gear if let up on gas and don’t shift. Brakes are fair. Mileage unknown. Battery weak but will include new battery for $50. There are a number of rusted out areas but does not show when driving. See pictures. (note: fake Gatling gun is NOT included)”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1300.
(11/20/2017) “I have a 1962 willys cj3b that I recently bought with intentions to get it back together and have a cool old Jeep to cruise around but it’s to much for me and I don’t have enough time to do what I want to to it. Open to offers have the title it has potential but is a project”
