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 .
JUST A FEW UPDATES TODAY!
Thanks to Alaska Paul for spotting this one. Mack Auction will be auctioning off cars belonging to the Gervais Family Farm Wheels Museum on August 4-5. There are a bunch (100 or more) of pre-1960 vehicles, along with one WWII jeep that’s been stretched in the back. Most of the cars appear to need some work.
See all the vehicles here: http://mackauctioncompany.com/18aug4.html
Here’s a pic of the jeep:
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
“As you can tell by the picture of the engine compartment, I drive it very often. I live on a dirt road, which is why its a bit dirty. I will get it professionally detailed before delivery.
It is a 1948 Willys Wagon that still has the original frame, suspension and brakes. At some point someone installed a Ford V8 along with a manual transmission. Whoever did the work did a really great job. If you didn’t know better you would think it came with this engine from the factory. It also has a Vintage Air AC system which works great and was recently serviced by a Vintage Air dealer in Central Texas.
There is a little bit of rust under the paint on the bottom of the doors. If you look closely in the pictures you can see it. The only other place that has rust is the bottom of the tailgate, on the inside. Its not bad, and is a very common problem with these trucks. The floor boards and all other areas have no rust and are completely solid.
The badges on each side of the hood are wrong. They indicate that the vehicle is “4 Wheel Drive”. It is not a 4 wheel drive model.
The roof has been repainted since the pictures were taken. It had a small spot where the clear coat was pealing. The new paint matches perfectly, and looks really great.
I am selling this vehicle to help fund the purchase of an old Chevy Suburban.”
Looks ready to roll.
“Awesome Jeep !!! So much to list all in excellent condition !!! 350 /425 hp _ band m shifter _ all custom suspension !!! Have a blast cruising main”

I believe this is a factory-done parkway conversion, as it has rivets/screws between the two rear windows (Please advise if I’ve got this wrong). This may have a government plate, too.
“Willys Jeep station wagon 1964 2 or 4wd 230 overhead cam engine, rare ambulance double doors, good body great rat rod clear pa title”

Some wider pics would be helpful. Looks in good shape.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6500.
It’s different!
“Sweet start to an awesome Rat rod! Yes it’s a 50 nose but register it as a 48 and run fenderless! It has a great running 394 Oldsmobile big block. 70k miles. Automatic transmission. 4 link rear. Z’d frame. Semi-elliptical front end. Breaks are done all the way around. Needs an e brake, windshield wipers and door hinges to pass inspection. I have a ton of hours into this so don’t lowball me!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $15,000.
It’s got a few non standard parts.
“This jeep is in very good shape , very little rust”
Seller was rewiring. The dash has been removed. This may be worth a look.
“1970 Jeep CJ5 Kaiser Willys excellent condition. completely stock, original condition, never been cut. Dauntless Buick 225 V6.
Runs and drives perfectly (no lights). Full cage, Bimini top and original soft top. Was going to restore but moving out of state and do not want to haul. Have new wiring harness and dash panel. Have over $6K in parts, new electronic ignition, new clutch master cylinder, new brakes etc. My loss is your gain – first $4000 takes.”

Seller will sell without engine as well. Does not run. Those headlights are an interesting choice. The front of the roll cage is bolted to the windshield. What does the duct-work(?) on the dash do?

“Okay thanks for looking willing to sell all or body frame and title.
