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 .
Seller knows very little about this. Thanks to Andy for sharing.

“This is a project car that my dad started he was a body man, we inherited this and we are not mechanical. Body and frame parts has been restored. Engine is there not sure condition.”
UPDATE: As Will notes, this does not appear to be a 1973.
There might be some value here, but not a whole lot.

“Has the transmission and transfer case in it. Does not have a title. OBO and open to trades”

“Up for sale is a 1946 Willy’s Jeep CJ2A. Included are 2 full engines, 2 full transmissions (1 top and 1 side shift), 2 full transfer cases, and a Borg Warner overdrive. As you can see everything is in pieces (thanks to the previous owner) but from what I can tell all the major components are here for everything. I also have a brand new transmission and transfer case rebuild kit which I’ll throw in too! According to the previous owner it ran when he took it apart.
The body is rusty but due to being in California it is in fairly good shape. There are a few holes here and there, a few patch jobs, and a few Bondo jobs, but overall seems solid (I can jump on the floor and remain standing).
Feel free to ask any questions and I’ll be happy to answer what I can. A flatbed will be required to pick up. I may be able to help with transportation for the right price depending on the distance.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $800.

Joe-in-Mesa’s friend Keith shared pics of this Hawaii-Style looking jeep. Keith is willing to sell it, but also wants to learn more about it.
To me, it looks like something someone brought to the US Mainland from Hawaii. You can compare this to the others we have documented here: http://www.ewillys.com/tag/hawaii-body/
If you have interest in it, feel free to email me and I’ll pass along Kieth’s info: d@deilers.com.
Def a project. It’s been listed for 41 weeks.

“1952 Willy’s Jeep. Good condition, ready for someone to restore. Have not driven in several years. Does not run but is not seized. I am sure it needs a clutch and some brake work. Great project. Cool little jeep ”
On Wednesday, Ann and I returned from a very quick trip to St. George, where we purchased a 2003 Alpine 38′ Motor Coach with three slides. While I had my reservations about purchasing a vehicle like this, then driving 1000 miles in it, the rig performed flawlessly. We couldn’t have asked for more from it. Still, there’s a bunch of things we need to learn. Here are some pics.
So, how did we arrive at choosing an Alpine? Well, that’s a bit of a story … Continue reading
After a few dud issues, this one has a few interesting items. Page two devotes almost half a page to Vacuum Power Brake Kits, like the kind that was installed on the DJ-3A when we bought it. This article shows that their installation was more common than I suspected.
On page four, there’s an article about the new “Fresh-Air” heater and cab ventilator and some of its advantages, along with a kit number. Also on page four, there’s an interesting article about the top bow rear brackets. First, their installation was cancelled in late 1955, but then Willys reversed that decision and added them again. So, there are some stock models made 1955 that didn’t have them.
UPDATE: The buyer backed out of the $8100 price, so it was reauctioned. The second time it sold for $10,500.
Thanks to Blaine for sharing this BaT Auction. This Sherwood pedal jeep sold for $8100!
Roberto Flores shared this image from another group of an older jeep pulling floats. The hardtop is unusual and was usually seen in Europe, but it’s my guess that this was taken in California somewhere. I was able to use Google search to locate the same pic on Jalopy Journal.
Looks like a good price.
