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: **SOLD** Was $18,000.

The 2nd Annual Northwest FC Get Together was this past weekend in Olympia. Josue was kind enough to forward some images from the event and give his take on it.
Josue writes, “Last weekend was the first opportunity I have had to visit a Jeep get-together. It wasn’t a huge turnout but it was definitely worth visiting. The meet-up was in Olympia, WA and it was specifically for Forward Control Jeeps. This was the second year and only about 8 showed up, although I’m sure it will get bigger with time. It was fun talking to a few people and seeing a couple of them run.” Thanks Josue!
Colin’s friend Al has got a nice collection of Willys. Colin forwarded a few pics of Al’s jeeps with some notes. Nice looking vehicles Al!
Colin writes, “I attached a photo of a CJ2A [al toy] that I did for a buddy of mine sitting on the hood of his August-built 1945 CJ2A with column shift, rebuilt with a lot of the leftover MB stuff that Willys used to get the first CJs on the road.
Al also has a 47 2WD wagon, a 49 Willys truck and a 49 Jeepster that is undergoing a repowering with a 55 Chrysler 331 Hemi, 727 trans, Mustang II front suspension and 56 Corvette rear end. Aside from body work and paint, Al does all the work himself and does an excellent job. The shot of the wagon with whitewall tires is the same wagon. Amazing what a set of wide whites will do for a car.”
UPDQTE: **SOLD** Was $18,500.
I’ve spent a good chunk of time in Watsonville. I built a ballet studio there. I actually danced in a Nut Cracker Ballet during that period, too. That was for ex-wife #2. Hmmm … Let’s talk about the truck instead …. Here’s a beautiful truck. Check out the bumper in the last pic.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4000
“2 FlatFender Willys Jeeps…clear titles..both run and drive ok..both in damn decent shape…$4000 each”
It runs (though smokes). It plows. Looks like a good price.
“1964 CJ-5 Jeep this Jeep has been used only to plow a drive way for the last 20 years. It runs but smokes now,I think it’s the valve seals. It starts right up and runs great. The break lines are rotted out. I have a new master cylinder and rebuild kits for the wheels cylinders and some new brake hoses. I replaced the generator last year with a new GM alternator. The floors need work they were patched already. The frame seems to be in good shape I didn’t see any rot. The body has some rot and rust.The plow pump was just replaced with a newer Meyers pump which works great just needs to be wired. I have the controls and lights for the plow. This is a project I didn’t have time for. Would be a great project for someone or good for parts. I don’t have any paper work on it. I could provide a bill of sale. You can get a title from one of the online companies. The guy who had it before me owned it for 20 years. Call Tom @ 917-364-2605 Please call between 9am-10pm.The price is $750.00 CASH ONLY or let me know what you have to trade! The plow pump and lights alone are worth $600.00 and no I won’t sell the just the plow pump. I won’t ship you must have it towed home! Don’t text me I will only take phone calls.”

This appears in good shape. Unclear if it runs.

This looks like a good price. It seems to lean to the right?
