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 .
UPDATE: Price dropped to $2500. I have the seller’s contact info if interested. There is some value here, but lots of project left, too.
(01/03/2017) This is a project. It is a flat fender body on what appears to be a 1976 or later chassis. It has an AMC 304 engine and an AMC 20 rear end.
“I have some great parts for a 1949 Willys Jeepster. The last picture is what it could look like when you finish. All body panel: hood, fenders, front grill, and front window frame just sand blasted, no rust, a few holes. No frame or drive train. Make me an offer.”
“FULLY RESTORED AND IN EXCELLENT CONDITION, BEAUTIFUL AND BETTER THAN NEW, 4 WD, NEW PAINT, NEW WHEELS, NEW INTERIOR, MOTOR RUNS GREAT, HAS A 6 CYLINDER HURRICANE ENGINE, CALL FOR DETAILS AND MORE PHOTOS, ”
Our Uruguayan bureau (Hugo Cicalese) filed this report. Thanks for the update!
I have not looked at you page recently because I was enjoying holidays and driving my CJ-3A. I spent a complete month in the East! In”the East” is where the ocean beaches are located. I took a couple photos while out driving his jeep. The only problem he encountered was a temporally stuck valve seal. Once the engine heated up, it loosened and worked fine.
Wondering around with the Jeep was fantastic! Very nice weather (not very hot or rainy, it happens sometimes). The day I came back I got some rain in the road, nothing to bother with a bikini top.
Next day looking at the news, I read that only 60 km east of me in Punta del Este there was a huge storm (summer storm with lots of rain) and I found this picture in the newspaper. Funny isn’t it?
It is a street full of water, and during the storm the MB could not make it (obviously problem of the driver!!!). Notice in the background there’s a new jeep waiting.
One day while on vacation I visited Piriapolis. I spotted several low hood Jeeps in amazingly very good shape. Around 5. Several CJ5 but these are easier to find. I only had my shorts, no camera or cell!!”
UPDATE: I wanted to thank Gustavo for sending me a sheet of lottery tickets.I received the yesterday. I didn’t win the Costa Rican lottery, but the gift itself is a win! Thanks!
(01/14/2017): Gustavo posted this photo of some tickets from Costa Rica’s national lottery. They use photos of jeeps to encourage ticket purchases.
