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 .

“I am trying to sell my 1946 willys jeep cj2a. I have about 3200$ invested in it and the time has come that I just need to get rid of it. It has a 350/sm465/np205 with full width axles that are Dana 44 front and Dana 60 rear. It has a warn xd9000i winch that goes with it the tires are 33×12.50r15 super swamper tsl thornbirds that are about 30-40%. The 350 was just gone trough and cleaned up 2.02 heads with roller rockers were put on it with an edelbrock intake and edelbrock carb the trans shifts really solid and the trans was just cleaned up also. It is a project for sure all the main pieces are there and it will come with a set of 4 Cherokee coils to switch the suspension from leafs to coils front and rear it needs this because the rear axle has been moved back about 8″ to make room for a longer rear driveshaft. It will need a starter, wiring harness, seat belts, links with heim joints, drivelines, and a radiator so it’s only about 1000-1500$ away from being a driver and I am in school and can’t afford this at the time”

(11/17/2013) This jeep takes a pretty photo.
“Hello and Thanks for checking out my Willys Jeep. This is a really great little Jeep and it is restored back to completely original condition and it looks great. It was a total nut and bolt rebuild. Everything is numbers matching and put together just as it should be. It wears its original colors of Harvest Tan with Sunset Red wheels. With only 300 miles on it since the resto, it runs and drives so good, and it very reliable as it starts right up every time. It is such a blast to drive – It goes down the road at 50-55 mph and is actually very easy to drive. The engine is great – it just hums and idles so smooth. The only thing that is not original is that is now has an alternator instead of a generator – and everything works as it should including all the headlights, brake light, and gauges. If you have been looking for one of these – This is a really great one at a great price – Im not trying to make any money on it, I would just like it to go to a new owner who will enjoy it, and show it off like I have. If you have any questions about it, just send me a message, and I will be happy to talk to you about it.”

Ron shared a link to the restoration of his FJ-3A, currently undertaken by Corbetts Auto Restoration and Customs in Cherryville, North Carolina.
The FJ was sold back in October of 2013 (http://www.ewillys.com/2013/10/21/1963-fj-3a-fleet-van-auburn-mi-1200/) and looked like this:
Now, as you can see below and from the photos on Facebook, the rebuilding is just beginning.
