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 .

John just took in two jeeps as part of a trade in deal he made. He doesn’t have much use for the vehicles. One CJ-3A looks in great shape and was restored about 10 years ago. The original owner claimed everything worked. The other CJ-3A looks pretty good for a parts jeep.”
On Wednesday I had a slight relapse, mostly from lack of sleep, but Wednesday night I finally got some good sleep (10 hours worth) with the help of Tylenol PM. That’s exactly what I needed. All Thursday I felt like myself. Ann felt good all day too (even got herself a pedicure).
Feeling confident, we will hit the road again today (Friday) and we will FINALLY be in Texas by Friday evening! It’s only taken a week and a half to get there. Our first stop in El Paso is to see a museum about some jeeps.
And so we bid adeiu to Fred and Cindy, the Stong Hospital and Recovery Compound, and the panoramic backyard view we enjoyed through sickness and in health. Not much happens in their backyard, but it was enough to entertain us for a week whether day or night.
Doug has another batch of NOS parts for sale that eWillys readers get a first shot at buying.
“I have a 12 volt Delco Remy regulator,two different Warn hub service kits,a pcv valve,an odd small wire harness,a Willys neutral switch,couple of wiper knobs,upper and lower chaff screen clips,couple of clutch release bearing springs,and a fuel gauge with panel.
These were all in original packaging,I had to open them to get pics.
If interested,contact me at 419-721-3320 and I can send more pics,give you part numbers,etc.I am willing to ship in the continental U.S.”
UPDATE: **SOLD**?? It was on eBay, but then pulled off when bidding hit $10,001. Maybe it sold locally.
