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 $4000
(09/21/2010) You had me at teel wheels with desert dogs. The reason for the sale is sad.
“
I have ALS sd cant drive tis anymore. Great shape, Must sell. All original 11,000 miles”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
This has some of the solid letter Desert Dogs. I bet this doesn’t have a whole lot of miles.
“1958 Willys Jeep, $2500 OBO. Runs good, body in good condition. Wench, gunrack, new windshield.”
The main reason for my trip to Seattle this weekend was to pick up a set of Forumla Desert Dog tires from Mitch with some good tread still left that I can use as offroad tires. I have four more hurricane rims just aching for these tires, so I can’t wait to get them mounted. This should really make Biscuit ready for summertime explorations. Thanks Mitch!
Sure, it is a mess, but it has Desert Dogs!
“Complete Has overhead valve engine out of a newer (1950s-60s) jeep. Frame broken near grill. Has Willys stamped on windshield frame. Tub has been patched a few times but it it almost 70 years old. Great for parts. Was a mudder before frame broke about 15 years or so ago. I unhooked the generator and put a battery in it last summer and it whirled over but thats as far as I went. 740-464-0363 I will consider trades. No title.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $300
Some old desert dogs on the front and old terras on the rear. The rims with the terras look pretty good. Given those additions, I wonder if the drive train was upgraded with anything like posi.
“project JEEP frame was sand blasted. some rust some rust already fixed. no motor, trans, tcase. nice rims with 31-15.50-15 terra tires.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000.
Desert dogs on some old steel rims — classic.
“Has small block chevy engine 4 wheel drive needs work but it runs good if you like to know more 2,000 O/B/O”
This stock looking CJ-5 with a great half cab has some cool hubcaps and some early formula desert dogs. This might just be the last jeep you’ll see with both hubcaps & desert dogs. This appears to have the early CJ-5 reversed front springs, too. I like it.
“Very solid steel cab on rough body. Plow is Full Hydraulic Up-Down and Left-Right from Inside Cab and is 6 1/2 ft. wide. Engine is 232 straight six cylinder, three speed on floor. Runs like a tank, Very strong, Very low overall gear ratios. Will deliver, per mile rate. Call: two six O / four one O / six five O one.”

This is pretty beat up. Note the old Desert Dogs.
“Complete 47 Willys for parts maybe. Engine not stuck. No title. Broken frame in front. CJ5 Tub No Title $300. Windshield Frame $75. Full Roll Cage $150. Will consider trades.”
This looks like it has desert dogs and steel rims all the way around.
