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 .
UPDATE: This was originally published Aug 30, 2013.
Famous barnstormer and racing pilot Roscoe Turner endorsed the jeep in this 1946 letter.
This military-appearing parade may be a part of the state fair. That’s the only thing I can think of when the card references “fair day”.

“1949 Willys Jeep halfway through restoration. Only driven 95 miles. It clearly needs body work but it drives. We rebuilt the engine, installed new brakes, and a new fuel line in 2019. It might have 25 miles since then. I haven’t had time to mess with it so the battery is dead. It needs either a trickle charge, new battery, or just to be trailered. My dad has the title. It is his so make an offer and I’ll relay it to him.”
UPDATE: Still Available.

” have owned this jeep since late 2013. It’s been garage kept. When I got it it had a blown f134 motor installed and sat until 2020 when I installed an other motor in. I found the t90 to be bad and had installed a running working t84 from a military mb. It’s running driving and braking. I did have a Holley 1904 carb on and installed a wanna be version. I seems to a little lean when it warms up. So needs to have vacuum lines looked at and PVC valve hooked up. I will be taking front windshield for my gpw. And I can provide a very rough 43 windshield but frame is good. It does not have any registration as it drove around my ranch with no intention of being on road. It has no data plates or license on frame or tub. Will come with the soft top as I really want to keep for my 43, but if the price is low for pick up I will remove top and all mounting hardware. Has no title or pink slip. Asking 3800 obo as a perfect ranch jeep or good start to someone’s rusted out tub.”
