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 .
Paul reports that summer in Alaska has arrived, with temperatures reaching the blazing heat of the low 50s. He tells me that the sun doesn’t set until 11:30 pm and sunrise is slightly before 4:30 am giving them 19 hours of daylight and five hours of twilight. While summer isn’t long, it sure is beautiful, as seen in Paul’s picture below.
This looks like a pretty good truck.
“1949 Willys Pickup. 4×4, 4 cylinder. All original. Nice little truck to restore, just too many projects. Not interested in any trades.”

(05/28/2011) Here’s a nicely chopped wagon. I would like to see more pictures of the chopped area.
“I have a 1962 Jeep Willys Roadster 4×4. Originally was a wagon and has been converted to a convertible roadster. Awesome vehicle to cruise around town in, rides pretty smooth due to the longer wheelbase.Vehicle is STREET LEGAL and the tags are good till March 2013. Has Super Hurricane flat-top I6 motor that runs perfect! Runs as quiet as a brand new vehicle. Brakes work great and handles descent for a vehicle made in the 60’s. The 4wd also works excellent. Here is a list of some add-ons.
– 15×10 Eagle Alloy wheels
– 32″ Dunlop All Terrains…(great tread)
– Warn Premium hubs
– 200 watt CD player with AM-FM radio
– Street Legal
– Clear Blue Title”
No pics provided.
“Body in fair to good shape; orignal motor, hubs have been added and are in working order; electrical converted to 12v; tires are good. Pictures upon request.”
There is some value here.
“1963 Willy wagon.
Clear title. Stock original drive train. The engine runs, but it is 50 years old and needs some love. Needs a brake master cylinder and a front brake line, as well as an exhaust to drive.
The body is in poor condition. The front floorboards at rusted as well as rust in the tailgate and quarter panels.
1951 Wagon.
No title or drive train. The body is in good condition. No rust in the tailgate or quarter panels.
The pair could make one nice wagon, with a few parts to spare.
Willing to consider fair value trades of a swather, baler, ditcher, or firearms.

UPDATE: This SOLD quickly (thanks Matt)
(06/08/2011) This is a fiberglass body with a thick ridge around the rear. It could be a bobcat.

This might be a good price. The body appears solid on the side.
“I bought this jeep back in October 2010. Has originial engine and transmission. Engine doesn’t run but the motor is free and will turn over. The body is in great shape, just 1 dent on the drivers side front fender. The jeep has no title, but we can do a bill of sale. ”

(01/03/2011) This looks real nice. The pics looks like they were taken on Tacoma’s north side which is bounded by South Puget Sound.
I worked for a short time near where these photos were taken at C.I. Shenanigans before going back to College to complete my undergrad degree at UPS. I knew the waterfront well, as I spent a lot of time riding my bike along the waterfront and into one of nicest city parks in the nation, Point Defiance Park.
“took this in part trade for a restored Model AA truck in 2009. I used it a couple of times but now I need my garage space back. This things a real hoot. Very smooth and quiet running. No squeaks or rattles. A great example of an unmolested jeep. What grabbed me was, it’s like a time machine, it’s upgraded with the stuff we used in the late ‘60’s and early ‘70’s. Has parts catalogues from early 70’s is seat storage compartment. It’s almost like it was parked in 1972 and found in 2009.
Has an unusual working winch with dual solenoids and Aux. light, removable tow bar, Solex carb, extra mounted coil, CB, converted to 12 volt (with alternator), wider tires and rims, rear swing away spare tire mount, full top, turn indicators.
Engine has had complete rebuild including stainless steel valves and hardened seats for unleaded gas. I added more out of habit, a new battery, HD shocks, plugs, NOS emergency brake shoes and oil change. I’ve encountered no problems with anything.
I joined my old high school friend and jeep nut from 40 yrs. ago on a camping trip in the cascades last summer with his family. Everyone had a ball using the jeep for getting more ice and marshmallows, driving around the campsite, and exploring logging roads with the grand kids. I’d forgotten how low geared, quiet and sure-footed these rigs were.
