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 .

John forwarded this interesting Russian video. My Russian isn’t too good these days, but I still enjoyed the video. Some interesting Ford variants were built for the military.

Here’s an interesting photo.

“1953 Jeep Willys CJ-3B Project. TRAILER IS NOT INCLUDED
Sitting on 1971 CJ-5 chassis, titled as a 1971 Willys, I have a clear Colorado title in my name.
Dauntless V-6, 3speed, power steering, Offenhouser 4brl intake and valve covers, new edelbrock carb, new HEI Distributor, new clutch, pressure plate, throw out bearing, and fork. 8000lb winch, Tuffy Security box in rear, new Best Top Tiger top, new factory style gauges, new windshield, new wiring harness and fuse block, new 31×10.50 15 BFG KM2’s including spare, new steel wheels, new aluminum radiator, new heater, new baffled turn downs off headers. Duel battery set up mounted in ammo cans mounted to rear fender wells, tilt steering column. Sure I am forgetting some new parts, but that’s all I can think of right now.
What it needs done: Wiring is about 1/2 done, needs finished. Mounts built for new aluminum radiator, and radiator installed. Carburetor and fuel system cleaned out, it ran , but fuel has been sitting in it for about 3 or 4 years now. Brake system, brakes work but I have never been in them, and bearings gone through. Body is rough and has bondo but looks good from a distance. Don’t really want to sell it so no low ballers, but I am moving and don’t really have a place to keep it. Just trying to recoup a little bit of the thousands I have invested in it. ”
