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 $7000
It’s not a perfect restoration, but appears solid.

Bill pointed out that this is actually a M-151A2 Encore. These were built using the M-151A2 running gear for a couple years in the late 90s. You can read more about them at the G503.com site. Here are good pics of another Encore. Here’s the discussion of the body at the G838.org site. I tried to find more info on the history of Encore, but didn’t have success, though it went out of business around 1999.
Greg pointed out this unusual M-151. It’s not clear to me if this was built from scratch or rebuilt, but it sure looks like a pretty new vehicle. In that sense, it’s a rather rare vehicle. If this WAS built from new parts, then $25,000 isn’t all that high of price to have someone built a vehicle from scratch. Including the cost of labor, building a jeep from scratch with new parts would likely land in the $25000 realm. The ad includes lots of pics.
“You are looking at a titled re-creation of a MUTT M151/ army jeep. In 1999 this Jeep was built in Clearwater, Florida for a jeep enthusiast that had a home in Utah as well. It was shipped to Utah in 2002 and used for local driving and recreational use. This vehicle has also won a few trophies in local car shows. In 2009 the Jeep was shipped back to his home in Palm Beach, Florida where it sat in storage. This vehicle is like new with only 400 actual miles. Everything is in working order and it runs like a 400 mile Jeep should. This vehicle cost over $25,000.00 to have built. There loss is your gain. I am only asking $11,900.00. I am open to all reasonable offers.”
UPDATE: Was $3600. **SOLD**
This looks good.
“1962 military style, 2 wheel drive, three on the tree, 4 cylinder flat head, rear seat, upholstery in great condition, garage kept past 18 years, 52000. miles, no rust…great shape! A fun ride !!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4500.
Here’s a DJ-3A in good condition. I’ve only seen 2 other ’65s.
“Amazing but no rust ever or anyplace. It’s been sitting for a few years and has bad gas in it and doesn’t want to stay running. Flathead inline 4 with floor shift three speed. Fun time at the parade or cruise.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1700.
Brett spotted this deal. This includes a Winch! It looks like a great price.
“This has had a 283 chevy engine swap, it still has the jeep three lever transfercase and the transmission. The engine has new ignition and exhausts. clean older jeep. It also has an 8000 pound winch and a tow bar.”
