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 is now on eBay

“I am 63 yrs old and have had this 1951 Willys Jeep for 40 yrs or so. It no longer runs as we pulled some parts off of it to be replaced. I became disabled and never got to replace anything and this jeep has been sitting for over 5 yrs now. Probably closer to 7 or 8. Anyway, the motor was very sound when we parked it and the transmission and four wheel drive was all in good order. The brakes needed to be replaced as did the gas tank. This never happened and even though I would like to put it all back together again, it’s probably not going to happen now. I understand I should probably be able to command this type of money for it even if just used for parts. I am really in need of cash right now and may take less. Maybe. Please email back if interested. This would make a good project for someone. We did cover it with tarp and camper shell to spare it from the elements.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $9800
