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 .
This combo is priced at $500. Unclear if that’s the actual price or a placeholder.

“This is a 1953 Willys military jeep. It is not perfect but has been saved and redone in many areas. Mechanically good it runs and drives. The carburetor has been rebuilt and the jeep has new batteries. The 24 volt military electrical system in intact and most work. An electric fuel pump has been installed. Sure it is old and not a high speed truck. But rolling history in relativly good condition. The jeep is sold with a bill of sale”

“1962 Willys Wagon. Purchased to complete ongoing restoration but life plans have changed. Runs and drives. Took on several local camping trips up nine mile and fish creek this summer with no issues. Needs to be dialed in but runs well.
Has rebuilt chevy 250 straight 6 with paperwork. New radiator. New brake lines and wheel cylinders. New wheels and tires. Stock transmission and transfer case with overdrive installed. New speedometer was installed with new motor with around 300 miles. Vacuum driven wipers converted to electric. 12-volt wiring. Body is very straight. original patina paint. Has some rust on driver’s side quarter panel on edge of fender well, could be repaired or new panels a readily available. No other rust issues including solid floor. New bucket seats installed. Windshield has center crack, also available to replace. I have a bunch of spare parts, including carb, original parts catalog and spare fuel tank and some glass. This was my dream retirement project but won’t have time to finish.”
Listed as a 1942 MB, it seems to actually be a CJ-2A (most likely a ’46).

“Great project. Everything is there.”
Roger shared this Youtube video by RowdyWelder who shares how he rebuilt the badly damaged front frames rails on this old jeep.
One of the tools I acquired a few months ago to work on my cage was a metal chop saw. After doing some research, I settled on the Evolution chop saw, as it had a bunch of good reviews. I found the best price through the manufacturer site itself: Currently it is priced at $379.99
A couple days ago I finally had time to pull it out of its box and give it a test on a piece of angle iron. Holy Smokes! It cut right through the mild steel angle iron, faster than I expected. I don’t know how long the blade will last, but this tool will sure come in handy! It sure beats a hacksaw!!!
I should note that I am just reporting on my experience. I have no association with Evolution nor do I receive anything for promoting this product.
Tom spotted this jeep. This could be a good price.

“I have a 47 Willy’s gasser drag truck. It has a big block 455 with a turbo 400 and a ford 9 inch. Truck runs and drives good and it street legal. Engine is mildly built and transmission has a shift kit. Truck is very reliable.”
