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 .
So nicely decorated . . . It is listed as a 53, but has the CJ-2A front bow holder.

This was restored. It looks very nice. I don’t remember those entry steps being stock though.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1200.
It’s been chopped, but runs and drives. Might make a good Tour FC replica . . .
“It runs and drives, missing the bed, doors, and I chopped off the rusted out cab cover. I have gone through the brakes and put a new clutch in it but the clutch it not releasing properly. Cool old truck but I have too much sitting around so it needs to go”
The top isn’t in good shape.

This is another story about a jeep from the Gus and the Model Garage series published in Popular Science Monthly. This particular article was published in June of 1955. In this story Gus learns about the oil float in the old Willys motors.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
Here’s an unusual item. The auction ends in a few hours.
“This auction is for a Original US Field Phonograph from the WWII era. It has typical damage on the outside from use in the field. Since condition is relative please look at the pictures provided. It is complete and plays. Great sound! The arm is a little sticky as it goes across the record but could be easily fixed, Probably just needs lubed. These were issued to combat units by the Special Services Division to build morale amongest the troops. This look great in a Living History or Reenactment.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay. Has an unusual dash.
“PLEASE THIS IS MY SECOND TIME LISTINOriginal Willy Jeep. No reserve auction. 3 speed manual. The car runs and drives. This Jeep was restored in the early 90s. It comes with 2 mechanics books for the specific model which will help if restoring.This was the last year Willy made the Jeeps. It still has the original 6 cylinder Buick engine. Do your history homework. This Willy is more than just a classic its a piece of USA car history. Feel free to call me with any questions. Anthony 917-709-0498.
