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 .

UPDATE II: To me, this looks like a Scheneker All Purpose Loader. Here is the brochure for comparison:
This was posted as part of an article on loaders from FarmCollector.com.
UPDATE: Two years ago Charles shared a photo showing an unusual loader attachment on a jeep (see the photo below the updated post). At the time, a reader named Chris commented that he had the same attachment. Over the subsequent couple of years Chris has worked to turn his attachment into a working unit. He has completed the rebuild in time to showcase it at this weekend’s Willys Picnic. Here’a s sneak peak. We are still looking for information on this loader!
(ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED DEC 19, 2014) The other day Charles shared some pics of unusual jeeps. One photo (seen below) showed a CJ-2A with a rare style of loader / bucket attachment. Chris spotted that photo and mentioned he owned one just like it, but didn’t know who made it or any history behind it. Does anyone recognize this?
Keith is looking for someone with a vintage jeep near Grafton, Wisconsin, that would like to participate in a June 24th fund raising event. Contact him asap at kmleistekow@charter.net or 920.226.8775 for more information.
Craig shared this rebuilt CJ-2A. One pic shows the rear seat in backwards, but maybe it’s just sitting in it and not installed? The top setup is unusual.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
Maury spotted this silver anniversary CJ-5.
“1979 Jeep CJ-5 SA: This extremely rare Jeep is an incredible investment opportunity. In the second half of 1979 Jeep built less than 1000 of the CJ 5 Silver Anniversary editions. There are an estimated 40 still in existence today with any chance of being restored. Less than 10 with the original motor and transmission and no rust! That makes this one of only 10 left in the world. I encourage you to do some research yourself into the collectibility of this rare vehicle. They will only go up in value!
It is “Car Show Clean” and ready to drive across country. Just add gas and enjoy. With 54,000 original miles this Jeep does well on the road, never sees mud and drives like a dream. It was garage kept for most of its life and only driven around town. The original front seats were replaced with aftermarket along with the steering wheel and shift knob. The original Silver Anniversary emblem is still on the glove compartment door and the VIN can be verified.”
Looks like there’s value here. Has an updated engine.
“1948 jeep willys truck runs and drives will need work to be Road worthy I have all the appropriate paperwork to register 2500 best offer will trade for a motocross bike in good condition preferably a four stroke”

Glenn shared this rare half-cabbed Jeepster Commando.
“This Willys Jeepster is the 4X4 short bed clad in red and white. It has a Meyers 6′ plow – we bought it for plowing smaller areas. Seats presentable with brown leatherette. Body has some rust out – front and rear quarters and other areas. Previous owner was a mechanic who replaced original engine with a GM V6 and claimed engine was rebuilt. Jeep runs and drives. Auto transmission works and Meyers plow works good. A desirable little truck that would need panel repairs or drive as is.”
