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: Still Available
(04/25/2010) Here’s an old school looking build. A retro-rainbow styling worthy of the 70s. I’d like to see more pics of this one.

UPDATE: This is back on eBay.
(06/20/2010) This jeep has some character. Note the image that shows ‘the relief hold’, which used to be the gas tank inlet.
“This is a very cool old willys with a neat history. This 53 Willys Jeep Cj3B was restored 15 years ago and used as a pace car and push start vehicle for cloverleaf speedway till it was shut down. It has cool vintage paint with hand drawn pin-striping, with some weather checking for that old school rat rod look. I have tried to keep it as original as possible, and still make a capable 4×4 wheeling vehicle out of it. Here’s a quick break down of it:
Solid frame, no major rust and most of it still has paint on it! Body has no rust showing, but has had bondo and fiberglass repair in the past. It is solid, but not a show truck! Front and rear tow points already attached …”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
“Extremely unique, one-of-a-kind!! Completely restored, inside and out, as you can see from the pics. Less than 1,000 miles since frame off restoration. 350 (balanced) Chevy motor, cam, headers, and 327 Corvette heads. 350 turbo trans, 9 inch Ford rear end, Mustang II front suspension and dropped spindles. Real lacewood vaneer outside panels. White wall tires. Has heater, but no air conditioning. Kenwood CD player, maple flooring, mahogony inside paneling. Runs & drives like a dream! Needs absolutely nothing! Always kept in a controlled environment, and has never seen rain!”
Brett found this unusually painted CJ-3A. I can’t tell if this is a well executed canvas of trees and limbs or an arbitrary splashing of paint.

Here’s a great looking Jeepster.
“The car runs very well, and its easy to drive. The “3 on the tree” manual transmission shifts properly. Whether you’re heading to Margaritaville at 5 o’clock, or just out for a pleasure drive on a nice ragtop day, you’ll have no worries.
As far as condition, its good. The body is straight and the interior is in very, very good shape. The convertible top is also in very good shape, but it does not latch properly at the front. This isn’t ready to be a show car, but its a nice driver. We don’t know the actual mileage on the vehicle, but we’re betting its seen more smiles than miles.
It does have an AM/FM/Cassette radio, but the car doesn’t have a lot of bells and whistles…oh wait…there IS a whistle: the “sexy girl” whistle sounds when you push a button on the dash.
Call Keith at 954 448 3659 to Buy It Now!”
