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: Status Unknown. Was $24,500.
This refurbished surrey doesn’t have all the original surrey-like trimmings, but it does have several Surrey indicators, such as the dry type air filter and the footman loops on the fenders.
“1959 Willy’s DJ3A Surrey/Gala, VIN# – 5633716515, Mileage – 14,680. My guess is that this is the lowest mileage Surrey/Gala in existence. The original owner ordered this Willy’s new directly from the factory. After a long ownership, he passed away and his widow sold the Surrey to her dear friend. It appears that this sale occurred in 1997.
Soon after, The 2nd owner had a cosmetic restoration done to the vehicle including new blue paint and what I believe was an aftermarket seat and top kit sold back then by JC Witney. I still have this top. I first saw this auto online and became very interested after confirming that it was a Surrey/Gala. I purchased it sight unseen, had it shipped to me, and started on its mechanical restoration. I have now owned it for almost 4 years, driving her a couple times a week and,of course, keeping it garaged.
Seller must sell. Interesting large door on the rear of this Meyer cab. Full vertical doors were an option according to a brochure posted at Pascal’s website:

Dan spotted this wagon. If this had a more traditional stance, rather than the aggressive forward posture, it would be hard to tell it was modernized so extensively.

“I have a 1962 CJ3B for sale. The vehicle was to be a restoration candidate. Diving in to it, it is most likely best suited as a parts vehicle or custom vehicle. The mechanicals components seem to be in relative good shape but the tin, frame, and aesthetics are sub-par.
I have dismantled the vehicle completely (main components). Sub assemblies have been partially dismantled (transmission dis-assembled, engine ancillaries and head removed). Despite being dismantled, it is all there. What I have seen of the gears I have seen, they seem to be in pretty good shape.
The bad:
– The body is in rough shape. There might be some salvageable panels.
– The frame is in rough shape. The front end and cross member will need redone. The back half of the frame is ok.
– No seats or frames.
– No steering wheel but I will include one with the sale (not original)
– Never heard the engine run.

Looks in restorable.
