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 .
Several readers forwarded this story. Rugged Ridge brought a collection of jeeps to this year’s SEMA show. You can see them here. http://www.caranddriver.com/flipbook/fcs-jeepsters-cjs-and-more-the-awesome-classic-jeeps-of-sema#1
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay in 2014.
Looks like a CJ-5 is underneath the train-looking body. The photo is from Manhattan, Kansas. The train is a Deibler Trackless Train.
Here’s an interesting pedal jeep. I haven’t seen a flat bed like this one.

“This is what I believe to be a 1958 Forward Control Jeep 150 4×4. I am not sure of the exact year. These are super rare antique forward control jeeps. This vehicle is complete, but in poor condition. The engine (hurricane 4 cylinder) turns over and the transmission shifts through the gears. I have not tried to start it. I am selling this vehicle for parts or restoration. The pictures describe it better than my words can.
I am asking $899 or best offer. If you are interested, please email me and we can setup an appointment to view it. The jeep is located in Glens Falls and we can help to transport for a nominal fee.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3400
Runs and drives.
“We purchased this 1947 Willys Jeep within the last year and we used it as our “fire chief” advertising vehicle for the summer. Our business is renting fire engines for promotions, advertising, and special events. We usually trailer the vehicle although we have been running errands with it. It has been a great head turner for our needs but we’re getting another fire chief car so we want to sell it.
The odometer reads 06723 miles and we were told it is actual but I that find that difficult to believe so I wouldn’t count it as accurate. It does has the flathead 4 cylinder motor.
The hardtop IS removable. No soft top.
Tip out windshield. $800 worth of NEW TIRES.
The rotary beacon emergency light is not included and is not actually attached to the hard top.
We’ve just rebuilt the original carburetor and replaced the points. We checked compression and one of the cylinders is working at about 40%. Either an adjustment of the valves or that valve needs work. We do not plan to do any further service and continue to drive it for errands at this time.”
