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 .
Looks like a good price. Double check that the hub holes are large enough for the jeep. No pics provided.

The body appears sound.
“1948 Willys Jeep 4 x 4. Great rust free body; partially restored with many maintenance parts (have all the receipts). All original sheetmetal and in great shape. Low miles. Available anytime to show it. Please respond with your contact info”
Looks like a nice roll cage.
“This is an original 1947 Jeep Willy body (I may be wrong on the year, I do know it’s in the mid 1940’s though). It has been sitting on the property for years and will never become a project for us. It’d be great to see someone build this beauty. As you can see from the pics it has some gauges, original fold down windshield, among other things. I didn’t bother cleaning it up to show because if you’re looking for a project like this that wouldn’t make any difference anyway. Also have the frame for it too. It was attached, but to move it down here from WA it had to be separated. The frame isn’t included in this add because we may try to sell it seperately unless someone makes a reasonable offer for both. Asking $750 for the body/obo. If you are interested or would like to see it you can text or call me anytime at 623-565-1892, my name is Don (text works best for me).”
