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: Was $1500. **SOLD**
It doesn’t have the original engine, but it might be worth a look.

“Restored 5 years ago 750 miles. looks good, drives well-been offered Audis and Sailboats-not adverse to trades, but a simple sale is best-this Jeep is now 64 years old, top speed is about 50mph, cruises 45mph-standard with the exception of 12 volt electrics and wheels”

These pictures could be straight out of a scenic shot from the Pacific Northwest, but instead were taken at the annual October Barfrosttreffet in Norway. Even is part of a club called the Flatfender Fellows and shared these wonderful pictures. This area shown below is about an hour north of Oslo.
UPDATE: From both emails I received and comments below, the consensus seems to be that the framework was built for pushing branches away, also called limb risers. As Brett suggested, I googled ‘tree limb risers’ and found something similar at a hummer site.
Gary’s father shot this photo around 1959 on the island of Tinian, which is part of the Northern Mariana Islands. He was wondering if anyone knows how the front rack was used?
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $11,000.
This looks like a very nice flattie. This appears to have a VEC body given the tool indents.

It turns over, but doesn’t start. It has three dash plates.
“Bought in 1995 for plowing driveway, but Stopped using a few years ago. Now it will turn over briefly, but does not start. The brakes do not work and there is no master cylinder. No seats. Definite fixer upper. Transmission worked well when it was running. Has an 8 volt battery, with 8 volt plug in charger. A couple tires do not hold air. Uses a plastic 5 gallon can for fuel tank. No seats. Could use some TLC! Mileage is estimated”
Looks very nice. Jeespterjim is selling this one.
“This is a 1950 Jeepster that runs and drives great. It was in the same family for 40 years. It’s a nice daily driver at an affordable price. The engine has good compression (105 on all cylinders) and was probably rebuilt not long ago. The top and interior are nice and the chrome is very nice. It has an older paint job, that is not perfect. It has the same typical rust issues that most Jeepsters have, but would not be a difficult restoration. You could drive it and fix it up as you go, or just enjoy it the way it is.
