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 .
A reader forwarded this wagon. It does not run at this point.
“Willy’s Wagon, needs a home, too many projects. Ran good. all original, new fuel filter, possibly needs new fuel line rust on back quarter panels. $3000.00 or best offer.”

Roberto Flores recently completed a story of the lineage of the jeep that was published at French magazine “4×4 Story Spécial Jeep“, issue 35. Great drawing and thanks for sharing it with us.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $750.
(12/29/2010) There might be some value here. It looks like it has a MB or GPW body along with a Bobcat fiberglass hood. It almost looks like an old racer.
“For sale is my very good running 1953 Jeep CJ3A. The jeep starts, runs, shifts and drives well. It has a early 1970’s Buick V-6 engine installed. Saginaw power steering box installed. 1953 was the last year of the CJ3A before they went to the high hood model. The 4 wheel drive works but the hubs are sticking and need to be taken off and cleaned. The Jeep has some rust here and there but nothing that can not be fixed. It has an aftermarket fiberglass hood that needs a couple hours of glass work for two very minor cracks. Has a hydraulic brake lock device installed for stopping on steep grades. Needs headlights installed. Very nice roll bar. Clean title in hand. Feel free to come take it for a test drive. FREE DELIVERY WITHIN 30 MILES (Except to the islands or Canada). PLEASE – SERIOUS BUYERS ONLY. I do not have the spare time to waste on flakes and jokers. $750 OBO”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $11,495
