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 .
UPDATE: Price dropped to $2200
(12/11/2017) Sounds like it doesn’t run.

“Not running… bought to restore and have too many other projects ahead of it. The price of $2500 is firm. Do not make any offers. Everything is there to get it going but do not have any idea what it needs.”
No Updates planned for Sunday. Here are two neat Ford GPA videos shared by Mario on Facebook.
Willys America’s open house is this coming weekend (Saturday July 14th 10am to 4pm). Dan Bowermaster will be leading the caravan from San Francisco to the event in Cazadero. I *thought* I’d be attending it this year with Ann and my daughter Kasia (who is completing an internship in Walnut Creek this summer), but complications forced me to put it off again this year.

Blake is looking for some replacement side panels for a CJ-6 project he has, but can’t located any replacement panels for the 20″ spacer installed into the body. Anyone know of either a template or someone that makes them?
This militarized CJ-2A has disc brakes on all four wheels. This looks pretty solid.

“I did upgrade the brakes to all four disk brakes and change the 6 volt system to a 12 volt system. Other than those two items it is original.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6500.
(06/26/2018) Has the miner hood ornament.
“The Jeep is is great shape for being almost 70 years old. It has a Chevy 350 in it, aftermarket steering, new tires and winch, new seats. This Jeep has the original three speed so it’s just a cruiser on the road. Needs a little love here and there. I would love to trade for something in the Offroad world. Ideally a wrangler or something a little more kid friendly.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5250.
Has a few minor updates.
“Runs great. 12volt system. Newer carb, fuel pump, rebuilt starter and new solenoid. Comes with roll cage and a complete enclosure heater.
Will consider best offer.”
Runs.

“Runs needs some work bill of sale only”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $4500.
(11/04/2017) Doesn’t run at the moment.
“As pictured. Starter is removed and is suspected to be bad. Engine ran well last time I saw it but it has been being stored in my dads driveway for the last 20 years.
I do not know the condition of anything other than visual appearance. Please do not ask.
This is a project, not a daily driver.”

UPDATE: These sold on eBay for $35.
