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 .
Looks in pretty good shape.

“THIS IS A STOCK 54 WILLY’S THAT RUNS AND DRIVES BUT COULD USE SOME CARB WORK.
THIS WILLY’S IS IN REMARKABLE SHAPE FOR ITS AGE.
THE WAGON IS 2 W.D. WITH A HURRICANE 6 CYL ENGINE AND 3 SPEED COLUMN SHIFT.
THERE IS RUST IN THE FLOOR BOARDS AND SIDES.
ALL PIECES TO FIX THE RUST ARE AVAILABLE FROM SUPPLIERS OR DIRVE AS IS.
THIS WOULD BE A GOOD CANDIDATE TO KEEP STOCK BUT SOME PERFER TO USE THE BODY ON A LATE MODEL DRIVE TRAIN.
ASKING 4000 OR BEST OFFER”
UPDATE: Paul noticed the unusual installation of the steering box.
Needs some work. Seller must sell.

“1958 Willys Wagon with pretty rare rear ambulance style doors for sale.
There is no motor or transmission, but I do have the original drive shafts.
It is 4wd and has a PTO driven winch on the front of it.
Body work has been done and it is painted Army green, windows are currently out of it – but come with it.”
Looks like there could be value here.

“Selling a Jeep Willys CJ2A. As you can see from the pictures, it does not run. The motor does turn by hand and the transmission/transfer case seems to shift like it should. The body is mostly rusted. The grill is solid. With the Jeep comes 2 spare axles, 1 front with manual locking hubs and 1 rear. Also I have another steering box and quite a bit of other small parts. I believe it may be a 1948. Selling as is, no title. Text for any more information. Thanks. Asking $1000 OBO. Make me an offer.”
UPDATE: Here is a brochure and some directions/schematics for the rare Sierra Dana 20 Overdrive.
The Sierra Overdrive was designed to mount to a Dana 20.
In November of 1980, Pickup, Van & 4WD Magazine published this article on overdrives, which includes several I hadn’t heard about. This series of article images comes from Christian Harrison (and thanks to Marty Tilford for spotting it). The scans aren’t perfect, but are mostly readable. You can find a similar article at the Four Wheeler Network.
Particularly interesting to me is the Dana 20-mounted Sierra Overdrive. Willie Worthy of Four Wheeler was involved in the development of it, but noted that a lack of capital doomed it.
