About eWillys
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.
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 married couple has quite the age difference: 61 years to be exact! The 2A is a column shift.

“This truck is originally from Nebraska. It has a 3-speed transmission with the hurricane 6 cylinder that smokes pretty bad when it warms up. It runs good and seems to stay cool.I have run it for 20 plus mins at a time. It has a electric fuel pump. It was a farm truck most of it’s life. It has plenty of dents and dings. The paint job is very amateur. It looks like it was applied with a roller and paintbrush and a Wagner power sprayer. It has Bondo that is unfinished. More in some places then needed and less in other places were needed. Not to bad from ten feet. The Bed Floor was replaced with a sheet of metal. The tires are dry rotted. It also has a hard ball size Bondo spots in each cab corner. And had one patch put in the driver’s floor.
The body will need some work. The Koenig hardtop looks great.
