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 .
This price doesn’t look too bad.

Here’s an early slat grille for auction. These don’t appear often. At this point, the price is already $600 +. Someone had the cojones to offer only $100 for this (see the questions at the bottom of the auction page).
“Original TR-20 bolt stamped slat grill. Came off my 1941 MB (No glove box, script Willys) Only ever had one can. Great shape, no rust- some original wiring, clips and hood gasket left in place for type/period matching. One of the first 25,000 grills ever produced. Never restored, messed with, original OD paint underneath. Some minor bends (easily fixed), one slat loose at top. This grill is is really, really great shape if you want all original parts for your restoration. These do not come up for auction very often at all. I will not give it away, but reserve is appropriately low. A great chance for a rare and special part. Don’t miss out. I would rather see it go to someone who knows what this part really means!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2800

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was for trade
(03/09/2010) The seller wants to trade this for a CJ-5 or CJ-7.
“1951 WILLYS CJ3A ORIGINAL CONDITION. 132 FLAT FOUR 3 SPEED. THE JEEP IS A BEAST , IT IS 99% ORIGINAL AND IN FAIR CONDITION. LIKE ALL OLD WILLYS , IT HAS HAD A FEW RUST REPAIRS OVER THE YEARS, BUT THE BODY IS ALL THERE AND SOLID. THE FRAME IS GREAT NO ROT ONLY SURFACE RUST. THE JEEP TURNS OVER FINE, BUT NEEDS A FUEL PUMP TO RUN. IT WILL RUN OFF A FUEL BOTTLE TO THE CARB. YOU WILL NEED TO REPLACE THE PASSENGER SIDE REAR WHEEL BOLTS, THERE IS NO WAY TO KNOW HOW LONG THIS JEEP SAT BEFORE I PURCHASED IT. TON OF NEW PARTS, PLUGS , WIRES , CAP , POINTS, …………..”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2900
(03/04/2010) This looks like a pretty good price. It runs and drives.
“This old jeep runs and drives! It’s licensed with new plates and has new none directional tires with less than 50 miles on them. I had the carb rebuilt a month ago. Still needs a little fine tune. I have a tow bar that fits it great so if you have a two inch ball on your truck your ready to pull it home. The old jeep also has a new battery. I’m open to trade for old rat rods,model a truck or coupe,or old cushmans. I’m not really looking for much else, cash is always best. My very best price is 2,900 firm. Please keep in mind it runs and drives and has license now! and the tires with mounting for none directional are expensive”l
UPDATE: Price dropped to $5700
(02/06/2010) Both the trailer and jeep look solid.

I was looking for constublary pics, but instead came across this page full of restored old jeeps that were part of Bastogne’s 65th Anniversary Commemoration.
Here’s one pic. There are many, many more at the US Militaria Forum: http://www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=61626&st=0
