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 .

(03/12/2014) It appears solid.
“1950 CJ3A JEEP flat fender, complete and running! This Jeep has it’s original drivetrain, however it is believed that the engine has low miles since overhauled. It has been converted to GM 12v but still has the manual solenoid floor switch. It is a civilian model, has a factory heater, has had rust issues repaired, has new brakes and new 30″ tires. Seats have been reupholstered in military canvas and it has a matching bikini top…NOTE: Top and seats not shown in posted photos, will forward more current photos to prospective buyers. This Jeep could use a little attention on the wiring updates as it still has much of the old fabric wrapped wiring. Did I say it runs and drives? Clear title and tow bar included. Perfect for parades and cruising!”
UPDATE: Still Available
(03/02/2014) It appears in good shape. Has later motor.

A piece of eWillys is now a part of Route 66 history at Seligman Sundries
We began our day by replenishing our food supplies. Unlike our trip to the East Coast last summer (we each gained ten pounds), we’ve been more careful about what we eat. This has meant many light dinners of good cheese, smoked meats and some crackers. Since Ann shouldn’t eat cows milk (beef protein sensitive since a baby), we’ve been shopping for goat and sheep cheese. Since AJs Fine Foods, Trader Joes, and Whole Foods are good sources of that cheese (and close together in Scottsdale), we decided we’d better stock up so we’d have dinner for the next few days.
Today we drove from Phoenix to Kingman.
After our shopping was done, we drove toward Mayer, AZ, where I’d learned about a place called Arcosanti. Below is an example photo of the place and more images here. I thought it warranted a closer look.
I wanted to drop by Arcosonti, but we accidentally passed it.
For some reason, I thought this unusual development was outside Mayer, Arizona. It turns out it is near the intersection of I-17 and Hwy 69, which we’d already passed. So, we ended up touring Mayer for a short time before resuming our trek north to Route 66.
But, it wasn’t all for naught, as we did find this collection of odd vehicles just before Mayer. There’s a couple jeeps among some vintage trucks.

A wagon and a truck just to the left.
