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 project has an early set of Free-Lock Hubs. It also has a set of rare vintage rims.
“Nice little Jeep project, not much rust, one quarter size hole in driver floorboard, a couple other spots pictured, original motor in the back of the truck, pieced for the top, including doors, all there as well as the back seat.”

Great project that I just don’t have the funds for any longer.

Thanks to eWillys, Bob just picked up this 1964 CJ-3B. He bought it out of Arizona and had Drew from the Jeep Farm replace the bumper. Because he found it on eWillys, Bob is sending Ann and I out to dinner on him. His support has been great over the years, so a big thanks to him and his wife (pictured in the passenger seat below)!
Charles shared this cool photo of M-38A1s readied for airdrops that was posted to http://www.vintagemilitarytrucks.com/M38A1-Willys-Jeep_airdrop-2_warehouse.jpg
Nick spotted these mini jeeps in Tierra Amarillo, NM. Those jeeps make him look big!
He writes, “A rare late summer sighting, Willy the mountain giant ventured down from the pine studded hills admiring various preserved Willys’ in Tierra Amarila, N.M.
C store parking lot, north of Intersection of Hwy 64 & Hwy 84.
Keep back unless you have ice cream bars or Snickers to trade.
