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 .
This has a governor handle. Maybe there’s a PTO in that pile, too.

“1966 Jeep Willy as seen in photos”
Dash has been partly cut out. Seller has listed it as a 1948 CJ-3A.

“Mostly complete CJ3A. The tub is in decent shape although the dash has a large hole where the gauges used to be. The frame is straight with a saginaw manual gear box. It is set up for a buick V6. It does not include an engine but I do have the tranny, t-case, and drive shafts that came out of it, along with an extra set of axles. The floor is not rotted out and and the tub straight. I do have the windshield frame (not in picture). This is a great starter project for a restoration, hot rod, or rat rod.”
UPDATE: Price might have dropped to $3800 (though the ad reads $380,000)
(11/17/2018) This appears to have a set of Warn “Summer Hubs”.

Thanks to Joe for sharing this story about Ben and his family’s 3,270 mile trip in a 1957 wagon from Kansas to Yellowstone and back over the past few weeks.
You can view the trip here: http://www.oldwillysforum.com/forum/showthread.php?13689-YNP-by-Wagon-from-Kansas (there are 11 pages, but no page links at the bottom of the page, so advance to the next page using the links at the top.)

“1951 Press Photo 1st Cavalry MPs Near Jeep with Hobby Horse Head Attached, Korea. This is an original press photo. Korean War, United States Troops Recreation: The only “horsey” touch remaining to the 1st cavalry division is said to be this hobby horse head attached to one of the division’s jeeps in central Korea. The Military Police (MPs) are Corporal Ernie Ernie Aguillar (left), Youngstown, Ohio, and Lieutenant John Haskell, Duluth, Minnesota. Photo measures 8 x 8.25 inches. Photo is dated 04-14-1951.”
It appears someone spent time highlighting the image during or post processing.

“52 Willys Jeep for sale. Been in the family and garaged since purchased from the government. Primarily used for hunting when it was running. Has not ran or been worked on in over 20 years. Straight body and frame. Hubs move freely but recommend buyer transporting with a trailer. Title in hand. Will not deliver to buyer. Additional pictures can be provided on request of serious buyer. Some rust throughout jeep but not bad for its age. Drivers side floor pan has rust through on the seam. Canvas top with some tears. Great original platform to start restoration or build.”
Thanks to Joe for sharing this link. The sale includes a 1956 CJ-5. Should someone buy the lot and finds there’s a bunch of interesting brochures or documents, I’d be interested in them (or sharing them). No pics provided.
