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 $2200.
This jeep has a CJ-5 grafted onto CJ-3B cowl. So, it isn’t mostly stock.
“I have a 53 cj3b for sale. It does run, but needs a tune-up. Original motor, jeep is mostly stock. This is a project jeep, it has some rust and dings”
UPDATE: Was listed on eBay. Status Unknown.
Looks like the sides may have been patched.
“An extremely rare WWII US Navy trailer from San Diego with a clear California title and an early black California license plate. The original ID tag is still affixed to the trailer. The body is very straight with some some spots of rust visible in the pictures, overall I would say this is a very good trailer. These are so rare that you might not have the opportunity to ever get one again and my reserve is very reasonable. Payment expected within three business days after auction ends. Cash in person, cashiers check or wire transfer. Available for inspection with an appointment before the auction ends.”
UPDATE: Was $5500. **SOLD**

<– Day 9 – March 26: Space History and White Sands | Overview | Day 11 – March 28: Petroglyph Rocks and Tent Rocks –>
On Wednesday March 27th we spent the day exploring eastern New Mexico.
We began the morning with a beautiful drive east up to Cloudcroft, a town that sits at 9000 ft, making it popular destination for folks looking to escape the heat of the Alamogordo valley. It was early, so not much was open. We continued until we reached the dusty town of Artesia, NM. My oldest son Karson had been ‘stationed’ in Artesia to get his final training for Fema Corps, but left Sunday (only 3 days earlier) for Brooklyn, where he will spend two months helping the Hurricane Sandy clean up process. So, we just missed him!
From Artesia, we went south on Highway 285 until we reached Carlsbad Caverns National Park.
After entering the Carlsdbad’s visitor center, we had a choice. We could either take an elevator down or walk down to the caverns themselves. Ann thought it best to take the elevator, but was perfectly happy to let me walk down the winding pathway through a massive cave entrance, which leads to the caverns.
So, I started towards the entrance. At first the switchbacks were relative gentle…
But soon they got steeper. As the path led into the cave opening, moisture from the walls and ceiling bled onto the path, making it slippery in spots due to the angle of descent. 
Eventually, I reached an intersection. I was uncertain which way to go until I spotted a sign I thought would get me to the elevators. So, I turned right, unaware that I was actually heading into the cavern system itself. Once I realized my mistake, I then had to figure out whether it was quicker to head back the way I had come or venture forward until I returned back the the intersection starting point. Poor Ann was left waiting for me. I think it took me about 15 minutes to complete the entire circuit through the caverns at a slight job.
One I found Ann again, we I took my second stroll around the caverns, this time at a much slower pace. My photos of the cavern were mostly blurry, but this was turned out reasonably well.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6000.
Hard to tell much with the tarp.
“health causes sale. was gone thru 10 years ago then parked. rewired, engine,transmision, and transfer case rebuilt. has original 134 flat head. was upgraded to 12 volt system. has bikini top. have some extra parts.”
This starts and runs. This looks like a diamond that needs some cleaning.
“1960 Willys Jeep. All original all the way down to the hub caps! Has and aftermarket Kelly All-Steel cab on it, front tow hitch, good tires, starts and runs good. Engine, transmission and 4-wd all work good. Body is in very good shape for its age with only a little bit of rust starting in a few places. A few small dents, but nothing that could not be repaired easliy. This is an original Willys Jeep and if you are looking for a restorable collectible…this is the one!

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000
All the parts to make a complete jeep? Besides the engine, radiator, and wiring I think some tires would be necessary.
“This Jeep has all the parts to make a complete Jeep down to the headlight bezels and has windshield (not pictured) Needs an engine, radiator and wiring. Its on four steel rims now (not pictured). Has some rust, nothing overwealming.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
“1946 Willys jeep CJ2A with the 134 L head engine that was stuck and soaking it has broken it free. The engine runs good it just smokes. I don’t know if the rings are stuck or one might be broke, don’t know. I have not drove the jeep much since it has been running. I drove it about two miles and it drove good, transmission and transfer case work good. The brakes are going to need attention. The tires all hold good air. The windshield is broken, and somebody cut the dash up, I think they must have had a different set of gauges in there. The jeep has some rust, has lockouts, and still has the orignal seat frames. The will run and drive.”
<– Day 8 – March 25: Tucson, A Titan, and Tombstone | Overview | Day 10 – March 27: Caverns & Aliens –>
On Tuesday March 26th, we touristed several spots around the Alamogordo area.
Our trek to several Alamogordo spots from Tularosa and back.
Be began the day by driving a short distance south of Tularosa, stopping at a Pistachio Farm and, possibly, the worlds largest pistachio! We also found this Mad-Max-like crazy car.
Next we toured the city of Alamogordo and the New Mexico Museum of Space History. At the museum Ann spotted two pictures of jeeps.
