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 $6800.
This good looking wagon deserves some classier rims.

It looks like there’s a pile of money put into this unusual rig. A couple things need fixing.
“This is a high-dollar build custom 1977 Jeep CJ that is just unreal! People come from all over to see this and get a picture with it. It is an extreme head-turner!! It will snap necks! The local police love it and offered to give me an escort wherever I need to go with it! It will dominate any 4×4 show. I own a car lot and use it for advertising. It is perfect for drawing business in.
It is an all steel body with the obvious mod, two extra doors! There is no roof with it. I was going to build an aluminum roof but never got around to it. It’s always been garage kept. The tires are 52 inch. The rims are 20 inch. It has a gorgeous small block chevy 350 with 350 turbo trans. I’ll add additional info about the rears tomorrow. I need to double check. It has air suspension. There is about 12-18 inches of travel with air. There is $60,000 invested in this. I use the term invested loosely… You will be investing though. This is an investment for your business or personal collection. The loss has already been absorbed by the original builder and myself. I can’t really call it a loss because it did it’s job. I sold a lot of cars and trucks due to the increased traffic this thing brought in.
Things it needs: the steering box mounted more sturdy. The mount flexes. It has a leak in the air suspension.
Please Call me before buying it now. It is a custom Jeep and I’m selling it as-is where is.”

Someone was looking for some of these.
“I have (7) used 31×15.50×15 Goodyear Super Terra Tires. These tires are not for Road use. These are 8 ply tires and are for off road use only. They came off of a ditch witch but can be used for mud bogging and other fun stuff like that. $350.00 for all seven”

(09/11/2014) Needs some work.
“I’m selling my Willys CJ-2A because I can’t afford multiple projects right now. It’s a great little rig, but needs a little TLC. Motor is an early 70’s ford V6, currently runs but has a flat spot in the throttle. I’m guessing it’s a vacuum leak somewhere. brand new carb installed recently. As well as a new battery. Price is negotiable. Trades welcome. Looking for a boat or a reliable pick up.”

It’s taken almost eight years, but there are now 30,000 posts on eWillys! That number doesn’t include all the posts I’ve deleted over the years. Thanks for everyone’s support, including links, ideas, comments, content and more!
Roger and his father Jim “Pee Wee” Martin attended the August 23, 2014 D-Day Reenactment in Conneaut, Ohio. He writes, “I took my dad,Jim “Pee Wee” Martin (2014 CNN Pee Wee Interview), and Ira Morehart to the D-day Reenactment in Conneaut, Ohio on August 23rd, 2014. My dad is the one in the passenger seat of the Jeep. He and Ira were in the 101st Airborne that jumped into Normandy the night before the D-day invasion. The jeep is a GPW that now features my father’s signature inside the glovebox.”
Roger added, “These other 2 pictures are on South Bass Island in Lake Erie where I went with my youngest daughter, Katie, September 11, 2014. The two jeep “trains” are in front of the winery where the largest geode in the world is located under the winery. Guests can tour the winery and see the geode.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
City Transit of High Point, NC, owned this CJ-2A.
“3 Vintage 1940s-1950s photos of a Willy’s Jeep sitting outside of Horace Ilderton Dodge and Plymouth Car garage in High Point, North Carolina. The writing on the jeep says, “City Transit Co”. They are 2.75″ x 4.5″ black and white photos. One has foxing, and the others have minor wear.”
This 1974 poster is one I haven’t seen available very often.
“For your consideration is an original rare vintage American Motors Jeep Parts Division Model Chart. The heavy stock paper chart shows pictures and identification features of all Jeep models from 1941 through 1974. The charts were designed to hang in a Jeep dealerships parts department for reference. It measures approx. 45″ wide, and 35″ tall. The chart is rolled and free of any rips, tears, stains, or pin/tack holes. The exposed edge has normal wear from age, handling and storage, but nothing that detracts from its appearance or functionality.”

It sure didn’t take people long to realize they needed some more secure nuts on their jeeps! It didn’t take me long 🙂
