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 .
There appears to be some value, but hard to say how much.
“I have a Willys Jeep that belonged to my father that i would like to sell. He passed away in 2009 & it has been sitting under the shed ever since. It does not run & will need a lot of work. I think it is a 1940’s model. I will take the BRO. Serious inquiries only. Thanks.”

It’s a project.
“1947 willys project. All parts there except windshield. Frame and running gear in good shape runs great and 4wd works good. Has rancho lift. Comes with 2 tubs both need some work. One just needs the floors patched outside is fairly decent. Have rear body corners and rocker panels. Roll bar and seats. Would make a nice jeep with a little time. $2000 or trade for ford highboy or similar. Or any 4×4 pickup trades. Let me know what you have.”

Robin thinks these photos might be suggest the roots of his Willys Sickness. Yep, based on these photos, he was doomed from an early age.
“Here are some photos that might explain me. The kid on the trike is me. The Jeep in the background was my Dad’s (started my collection). The guy in the M-38 was my Dad’s first Sgt in Korea and the CJ3-a is just a pic my Dad had.”
