About eWillys
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.
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 has three good looking hubcaps and a rebuilt engine.
“The Good: Rebuilt Super Hurricane 6 Cylinder Engine with 5000 miles. Original working 3-speed transmission, Hi-Lo transfer case and 4WD Warn Hubs, Newer battery, converted to alternator. All seats and glass intact. Dash intact. Original wood on floor. Runs. Shop Manual. Clear CO title.
The Bad: Will need to be trailered home. Usual rust around rear wheel wells. Brake Master Cylinder needs replacement. Tailgate hinge rusted. Gas tank leaks. Drivers side floor pan needs to be replaced. Driver’s side fender removed due to damage.”
UPDATE: Price had dropped to $2000, but the ad now includes a boat.

(11/14/2012) This looks nice. It has a clever spare tire holder that uses part of the PTO bar. It’s worth a look. The custom undercarriage is lower than usual.

This Jeep was never used off the road. It will get around town and fly down the freeway just fine. This is a really snappy rig and will take off at the drop of hat. It gets lots of looks going down the road. The only trouble is the gas gauge which needs worked on and a small chip in the windshield which has a “glass sticker” on it to keep it from spreading. Please ask any questions. I am selling this in cooperation with my father.
The work was completed about 10 years ago on the jeep. It has always been garaged and rarely driven in the rain. It was a spring and summertime driver.
Alas, it’s top will keep you warm and dry (has heater and defroster). In heavy water (such as during washing or heavy rain) some water will gather in the front floor boards. We always just put a towel down there when washing. Someone could easily track the source of the water getting in, we just never did as it was a nice day driver.”
(08/18/2012) This might be worth a look given the price.

I was telling Ann about the Pepsi Surreys, so she asked about Dr. Pepper and Jeeps. This was all I found. This sign is from around 1998.
“Newer metal advertising sign for dr pepper still wrapped in plastic dated 1998 great sign for garage barn kitchen wherever measures 17 x 10 1/2″ no reserve”
