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 .

“Up for auction is a full custom Jeep dragster. I received this dragster in a trade for another race car I sold. I am not a drag racer and am into circle track racing so it must go! I did not build this dragster so I don’t know a ton of details about it other than what the previous owner told me and what I can see and hear by running it and driving it. This dragster is approximately six years old according to the previous owner. It was built by a professional chassis shop in California in 2006. Looking at the welds and looking over the chassis it looks very good. It has a full chrome moly funny car style cage. The rear end is a narrowed 9 inch ford. It has a 4:11 posi gear. Big bearings and 31 spline axles. Wilwood disc brakes. Wilwood Dynalite calipers. 14.5” wide Hoosier slicks with very few passes on them by the looks of the wear indicators. Centerline convo pro wheels. There will also be a set of mud/sand paddles included with the dragster in case the new owner wants to run it on something other than pavement. Front has a solid axle with solid centerline wheels. Front tires are pizza cutters and also in very good condition. Steering is manual with a gm style steering box. Engine is a built 350 Chevy with about 12 passes on it. Transmission is a built th350. As I listed above I did not build the engine or transmission so I cannot tell you what all went into the internals. I do know that it sounds very mean and it is very very fast what little I have driven it. It will pull the front tires off the ground when it is launched! The seat is a standard drag race seat with a cam lock style Simpson 5 point harness. The body is all sheet metal except the one piece fiberglass front end. There is no rust anywhere on the body or the chassis.”

This rare game was listed earlier this month at a live auctioneers.com. It didn’t sell. I contacted the auction company and was told the consigner isn’t sure whether they will list it again or not. You can also learn more about the Jeep Board at the CJ-3B Page.

I like the motion in this illustration.
“Original illustration (painting) on board (not paper). See blue ruler and oatmeal container to estimate size. It’s LARGE, and in nice shape! Probably done for a 1960s or 1970s men’s magazine.”

“This is a last edition 1953 CJ3A Jeep. A good driver condition, not show quality, a twenty footer. Body has been off frame, repaired by welding in non original panels, and painted low quality. All stock drive train, still 6 volt, runs well, goes well. Its been inside storage about 4 years so probably needs some attention from sitting. A real fun Jeep for small price.”
