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 .

“THE STEEL TOP AND TOW BAR DO NOT GO !
I have a CJ-3b that my son started restoring. It is all there except the fuel tank was bad. The wires are all in the buckets and chassis was running and driving when the body was taken off about a year ago. The tub had some rust so we got another one that is mostly rust free. This is a great one to restore I just have too many projects.”

How about this cool DJ-5 custom grille. The photographer who posted these pics (and others) was also the builder.

If I’d only known . . . Apparently Ceclia Gomez operates a popcorn and cotton candy stand out of a pink DJ-5 near Sunset Park in Brooklyn (near 5th Avenue and 50th Street). My wife says that is a must stop on our next trip to New York!

Colin dropped by the 2014 Barrett Jackson auction and filed the following report.
“Went to Barrett-Jackson today with fellow Jeepster and DJ3A owner Jim Sullivan and saw several Willys vehicles that I thought would be of interest. I have attached several photos with a short explanation of each.
1961 FC 150 done in Coca Cola style, might have been on eWillys a week or so ago? (ed note — this FC-Coca Cola is similar, but not the same.)

John recently posted some detail photos of jeeps froma visit to a Wings and Wheels Fly-In at Poplar Grove, Illinois in 2008. It is mostly Jeep detail photos for restoration reference. He hopes the photos will benefit some folks.
