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 $2950

DJ-5 owners . . . take heart! Who says a mail jeep isn’t fast? This modified — ok highly modified — DJ-5 won the 2012 Organizer’s Choice Trophy at the 2012 24 Hours of LeMons Thunderhill in California.
The December 1949 issue of Popular Science highlighted this unique attachment for the jeep. You can view this article on Google books.
You can also buy the issue on eBay
This appears in good shape.
“Original owner, very low miles on this jeep. I never played with this toy because it was pink, now I wish that I had saved the box. I am asking $35 or best offer.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Bought by an eWillys reader.
“Available is an awesome Willys Wagon ready for Spring cruising! This has been restored recently. A lot of time and money has been spent on the Willys for YOU to enjoy! It is in a nice driver condition. It has been in Tennessee over the last 30 years. The original engine and transmission were swapped for a Chevy 250ci 6 cylinder and automatic transmission. They are reliable, and it also has dual exhaust. It has new front and rear glass with rubber, the side glass has been tinted. It has nice moon caps and trim rings on color coded steel wheels. The heater works, as does the A/C (cowl vent)! It has a late model speedo that works, after market gauges and a CD player with box speakers in the rear.”
This looks good except for the missing tool indents. It does not run. This was on Craigslist.
