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 .
Steve spotted this ad for those do-it-yourselfers who wanted to add louvers to their hoods called the FORM-A-LOUVER. I still haven’t found an advertisement for aftermarket louvered flatfender hoods. Maybe they were all custom made?

(08/14/2010) Check out the hood. I believe that isn’t a custom creation. I have seen 3 different kind of louvered hoods over the years. 2 had the louvres on top and one on the side.”

This looks nice. I wonder if it is built on a CJ-5 platform?
“I’m putting my 1957 Willys Jeep CJ5 up for sale. This Jeep is awesome! It has a 327 Corvette motor in it, runs great, Magnaflow exhaust, headers, new gauges, etc. The tires are practically new – less than 100 miles on them. This jeep would be perfect for someone who likes to go crawling, four-wheeling and more. I’m asking $5,000 OBO, or I’m willing to consider trading for an airboat. Call or text if you would like to take it for a test drive or if you have questions.”
