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 $1400.
This looks like a project.
“1948 Willys Jeep, comes with two 4.3 Chevy V-6 3 speed transmission and model 20 Tranfer case. Also have motor mounts and adaptors, titled in Oregon, possible delivery. Can send more pictures.”
Here’s another customized hunting flattie out of Texas. These really deserve their own category.
“Here is a great hunting vehicle with minor work needed and she will roll. My father and I years ago pulled the flat 4 cylinder engine out and costumized the firewall and dropped a chevy 283 v8 in her. I have recently replaced the water pump, fuel pump, belts, two new front tires, rebuit radiator, fuel line filters. This jeep is a 1943-46 I will have to pull the title to confirm. This vehicle has bee in my family for thirty years and still runs strong. My asking price is $2650.00. Also has rifle rack, three spares which two need tires, Rack on the rear and two gas tanks with quick connects for rapid and easy switching tanks. Thank you for your time. Brandon 713-962-4705”

It runs, drives and even stops. Three important characteristics of a good jeep. Like you need anything else?
“’50s WILLYS JEEP. RUNS, DRIVES, STOPS. RHINO LINER SPRAYED INSIDE AND OUT. TIRES HAVE ALOT OF TREAD LEFT.”
This is the second of two videos made by Universal International News. Much of this footage seems very similar to the shots taken by Life Magazine of the Ridge Runners, when they did ran a story about the Jeep Club.
The Yakima Ridge Runners Jeep Club recognizes itself as the world’s first incorporated Jeep Club, incorporating in early 1947. I have run across reports of early clubs formed in Southern California, but whether they actually incorporated or not is unknown to me. This video made by Universal International News was one of two.
Here’s the ‘story’ of the jeep from the Jeep’s perspective. It’s got a bunch of historical footage.
This is part two of a two part marketing video produced, I think, by Willys Overland about their products. Not only does it cover the jeep, but it also covers, particularly in part 2, the other 4wd vehicles such as the Wagon, the Truck and shows some of the farming implements available.

This is one of the more amazing videos. It’s short. Watch the end of it closely, as the driver escapes the jeep just in time before the flat fender topples on top of him.

This looks like a deal to me.
