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 .
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000.

It’s a project that includes a rear PTO.
“I have a 1946 willys jeep, started on the tear down to start a resto-project, now I’m going with something newer. Body is spent, frame repairable but comes with a CJ3A frame . motor turns free, rear pto set up, decent fenders ,hood, and windshield frame, and for the best part, it comes with a clean Massachusetts title.”

Variety of parts.
“This is a 35+ year collection of new old stock body panels. I have the front and rear floor pans, rear quarters with inner panels already spot-welded in place, CJ3B front quarters, (piece can be removed to convert to CJ3A). Also included is a N.O.S. 3A grille, N.O.S. 3A hood, N.O.S. tool box, a used windshield and used gate. This package also includes a donor JEEP that is a CJ3A with a very clean frame with straight frame horns with no extra junk welded on and it’s not rusted up. You can’t buy these parts in O.E.M. without spending another 35 years searching. This is not imported junk. Please email for an appointment to take a look at the collection. It is located about ten miles east of Hershey, PA.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4500
Looks like it might run.
“Looking to sell my original 1944 Jeep Willy MB, have title in hand asking $4,500 OBO. Anymore questions feel free to email me!”
Today the four 1956 Willys Newspapers in the mail I won on eBay arrived. There is lots of great stuff, both photos and interesting stories. I’ll be sharing them all in the coming weeks.
This first article from the page seven of the June-July 1956 issue tells the story of a retired couple by the name of Hawkins who readied a caravan for some cross country exploration. At the head of the caravan is a Fleetwood Caddillac. It pulls a camper-trailer that pulls a CJ-3B carrying a boat. Looks like they were ready for anything!
