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 .
I ran across this unusual ad for the complete setup for an unusual 4×4 in the February 1964 issue of Four Wheeler Magazine. The prototypes and parts were being sold by Vic Hickey (or he was acting as an agent). Anyone have more information on this? It appears to be a four wheel drive dune buggy.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5000.
Nope, never seen this mod!
“have a nice old 1946 jeep upgraded to a 12 volt system and newer front grill off a 12 volt later model jeep everything works on it ……….might be open to a good trade I like bangs and farm stuff”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $4800.
(07/17/2013) The seller describes the body as a M-38 body, but it’s clearly a MB/GPW.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was sold at auction.
It’s got an unusual cab.
“Selling for owner at public auction next Thursday Night Aug.8,2013.

It runs. I can’t say I ever thought of melding a CJ-5 and CJ-3B this way.
“1953 cj3b Buick v6, runs great. NY registration. great project.”

This appears to have been a CJ-6.

On another note, this seller also included a picture in the ad of his completed drag M-38 jeep. This one is NOT for sale.

Here’s an oddball.
“This jeep has a new rebuilt engine, new u-joints, new tires, new carburetor. Ready to go, especially during hunting season, good for ranch work, etc. This price is firm. Serious buyers only.”

(04/13/2013) This jeep has some unusual changes. Put “GREEN” in the subject if you email the seller.
“46 Willy’s Jeep great run around the farm or road. Had antique tags on her but now just use on grass. 4WD HIGH AND LOW PTO/WINCH in rear works flat 4 cyl.
