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 $3000
“I bought this rig about 1-1/2 ago for the fiberglass body for another project. It did not have the motor or transmission at that time. It has a Ford 5.0 HO Roller Cam motor with GT-40 Heads and ford motorsport E303 Cam shaft, Edelbrock performer intake and edelbrock 625 cfm CARB and Street rod drop Headers. Has 120amp alt, small high torque starter. The transmission is a C-4 transmission has been gone thru by Transaction transmission in Forest Grove.
It is a 2 wheel drive, has front solid axle and updated steering “old school” has a Camaro 10 posi rear end. Has power vacuum assist brakes.
Previous owner said curb weight was 2140 LBS with conservative 275 Horsepower =7.78lb/hp
That translates into just plain FUN.
What it needs left to do, install electric fuel pump, transmission cooler, Aluminum radiator, I have all the parts new just sitting there and ready to go.
Exhaust needs done yet.
I’m willing to split the deal if someone wants fiberglass body or engine and transmission if the offer is right. I’m scared to think the amount of money I have in this my loss your gain.”

Our own Joe Snodgrass’ GPW was used as the model for this Biloxi Blues poster. He and his GPW will also be featured at a car show to promote the play.

Dave spotted this article about a 19 Year Old Iowan name Matt Goode who repowered a CJ-5 with electricity for a FFA (Future Farmers of America) project. I have to say that’s a nice choice of rims (not that I’m particle or anything).
