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 .

(09/09/2012) Except the strange contraption on the front bumper this looks pretty stock. Of course, the paint scheme is odd.
“Old Willys Jeep. “L” head, 4-134 “Go Devil” engine rebuilt in the 1960s. Carter WO carb rebuilt last year. Frame is good, drive train is good. Body is solid but rough. New tires. Needs new springs all round. Comes with 4 extra wheels, homemade cloth top, and draw bar to tow it behind your vehicle. This Jeep would make a great restoration project or a hunting Jeep for running the woods.”

(12/05/2012) Randy forwarded this eBay listing. This sure has rusted beautifully!
“1951 Willys Jeep 4X4 Pickup Truck. This is a project that is currently not running and has been setting for the last 30 years. This is a very restorable truck that is a rock crawler waiting to happen. The drive train is complete from engine to rear end. The engine appears not to be original because it is an over head valve, and the engine is locked up and will not turn over, the remainder of the drive train was in working condition when the truck was parked. Although the body is 99% surface rust it is actually very solid and straight. The cab is very nice as is the roof, hood, cowl, grill, rock guard, and doors and these pieces should clean up for paint with very little effort. The fenders are all on the rough side but are repairable. The bed is also very straight but does have through rust in the bed sides and in the floor. The tailgate has minimal rust and will need some work. The glass is all in place except the driver door wing window, the rest of the glass is either frosted or has bubbles from old age and will need to be replaced, but it is all flat glass and should be very economical to replace. The interior is rough, the seat frame and springs are in place but will need to be recovered. All of the guages are in place and the dash appears to be complete. The wheels all turn freely and the tires all hold air, but are 30 years old and dry rotted. All 5 wheels are original to the truck with the factory pin stripe barley still showing. I have tried to decribe this old Jeep the best of my ability, but have probably missed something that you need to know, if so just ask. If you would like to inspect it in person prior to the end of the auction again just ask and arrangements will be made. This Jeep comes with a good Missouri title. The buyer will be responsible for all transpotation costs if required, but I will be willing to assist in loading or pickup on this end if needed. If you are looking for a project or just some good parts you should give this one some serious consideration.”
UPDATE: Still Available
(03/24/2010) This Jeep has an interesting history. It sounds little used.
“1946 Willys CJ2A. California jeep. Second owner. Originally sold to a Los Angeles family for use on their weekend getaway ranch in Agoura, CA. For twenty years, this jeep ran from their house up the hill to their water well. It was last used in 1963. Sometime thereafter, the transmission and transfer case were stolen, and it sat until I purchased it in 1983. At that time, it had a little over 500 original miles. Stored outside, but thanks to the dry California climate, at the time I bought it, there was no body rot. Since then, the frame-up restoration has included: Sand blast frame and body parts, engine professionally rebuilt by Preco, Inc. through Harvey’s Complete Jeep Shop in Paramount. Radiator dipped and rodded out. Clutch re-lined by Friction Materials Company. Installed NEW transmission and transfer case, added a Warn All-Range Overdrive. New u-joints, AVM hubs, new seals in differential and axles. New master cylinder, new brake lines, brake shoes re-lined by Friction Materials. Original seats recovered by Elmer’s Truck Seats of Los Angeles, new steering wheel, new instrumentation, and new wiring throughout. Fuel tank cleaned and lined. New 24V alternator. New tires, rims, and front bumper tow bar. New windshield glass. Bikini top, and CJ-5 roll bar. Over 10K invested. I have all receipts. The jeep has not been run in the last 8 years, and needs some TLC, namely a new battery and a clutch return spring. Minor rust is starting to form in the lower corners of the windshield, and the “steps” behind the front fenders. I also have three of the original rims fitted with tractor tires, and the original side spare tire mount. Please contact me via email to arrange an inspection. $7300.00. I will consider any reasonable offer.”
