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 .
The Portland Swap Meet celebrates its 51st year this weekend (April 10, 11, 12). Billed as the largest parts swap meet on the west coast, the event is hosted by 6 different auto clubs. There will be jeep-related folks there as well. I know for sure Willys America will be attending. As i understand there’s a pretty good showing of other 4×4 parts there, too.

This is a great photo showing a line of Bantam BRC-60s.

“Just in time for Spring is this one of a kind 1953 Willys Hot Rod Truck. It may still say 4 wheel drive on the Hood but this bad boy has been transformed from snow plow duty to a bitchin Street Rod. The project started with a super clean stock 53 Willys pickup. The front end received a Mustang II suspension while the rear end came from a Lincoln. Four wheel disc brakes stop this machine like a 747. A brand new Ford 302 crate motor handles the power. the engine was placed as low and as far back as possible which gives this ride great handling. Inside has a bench seat and Jimmy Shine “spiked ball” shifter knob. Easy to drive and very reliable. New Painless Street Rod wiring. all lights, horn, turn signals etc. work as they should.”

Runs and drives.
“Restoration project. This is a truck you can drive while restoring. It has a very strong flat head 6cyl motor that runs great, does not burn or leak oil. No smoke on startup. Strong 3spd on the floor. Working 4wd. Frame is excellent with no rust. New master cylinder and breaks all around, less then 5 miles on them. Cab has a good outside with some rust in normal places. Inside the cab needs some metal work but is restorable with home welder. This jeep has not been on the road as a daily driver for a while so needs to be gone through. I have driven it and it tracks very nice for a 50 year old truck. It is being sold “as is” so please feel free to ask any questions you may have. I can email you more pictures if needed”
UPDATE: Still Available.
