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 .

“Selling these 2 willies as a pair.
One is a 1959 and has been stored inside for 15 years. Ran and drove when put into storage. Has Beefy front bumper with winch and extra parts.
The other is a 1960 and has been out side for 10 years. It has no engine, transmission or running gear. also has extra parts stored inside.
You get 2 willies for buying one. Will not sell one alone unless it is the one outside. When you buy both you must haul the one outside away first.
Asking $1500 for both, no trades, no parting out, no seperating the two(unless you are taking the one outside). Both have clean titles.”

“This is a 1950 CJ-3A with an L-134 Go-Devil 4 cyl engine, T-90 Transmission and D18 Transfer case. It does not run.
Frame:
Overall excellent. Some rust in spots but no rot or evidence of repair.
Body:
Extremely rough. Likely beyond repair. Fenders are also rotted. Hood is solid but does have a wide shallow dent. Top bows are still present but will need extensive repair if they are to be used.
Engine:
L-134 Go-Devil. It is not stuck but I have made no attempt to start it. Condition aside, it appears very original right down to the clips that hold the fuel and vacuum lines together. Air cleaner, oil filter, fuel pump are likely all original 3A parts. The starter was recently removed and is not included.
Transmission and Transfer case:
Both stuck. Hand brake has sustained damage and will need to be replaced. Some components possibly salvage but this will need a complete rebuild or replacement.
Axles:
D41 rear and D25 front. Two of four wheels stuck.
