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 .
The top appears in good shape, though it has been painted black. Thanks to John for sharing.

“Hard top only. Complete and original as pictured, a few spots could use refreshing, pictures taken the day it was taken off the Jeep.”
There may be some value here. Thanks to John or sharing it.

“Jeep FJ-6 1966 right hand drive. Old post office fleet van. Engine is junk but comes with another one that’s good. Frame is solid, body is galvanized so almost no rust, does have some dents. I don’t really want to sell it as it’s a personal project of mine but I wont be getting to it for a long time so I’ll just leave it posted if someone wants it bad enough. My plans are to bag it and slam it, but it uses a CJ5 chassis so you could easily make it a fun 4×4 rig.”

Thursday and Friday I finally painted the interior. The color is rattle-can Red Apple Gloss. It nearly matches the exterior color, but is slightly brighter. As noted before, it’s literally just some lipstick to clean up what was there and to help preserve the metal a little longer before I can get the cab removed for a proper media blast, repairs, and paint.
After paint:
Here’s an odd ball toy that the seller suggests is from Marx. I can’t confirm that. The seller is only asking $5 for it.

“Vintage Marx Willys Jeep. Plastic that has been painted. Axles and wheels turn.”
The jeep looks great. It’s sporting a Kelly half cab. I met the seller a few years ago at a non jeep event.

With three days left, the price of this non-running jeepster is currently at $650. Andy points out that for most folks, retrieving this from the island of Nantucket will be time consuming and extra expensive.
“1949 Willys-Overland Jeepster Sport Utility Vehicle, 6-cyl gas, manual, (Exempt from Odometer Disclosure – Reads 1,333 miles) True Mileage Unknown (Not Running, Drivetrain Condition Unknown) (Title Branded Odometer Discrepancy) (Vehicles have been sitting for an extended period of time.
