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 .
Runs and drives.

(12/16/2011) It looks nice enough, but whenever someone claims a jeep is restored to “exact specifications”, yet I see right away non stock hubs, I become a little leery. However, generally is looks pretty good.

The seller lists this as a “Willys MB”, but I’m pretty sure this is a M-38. I wouldn’t bring it up, except that the seller is the one that wants someone to “respect the history of this fine automobile.”
“This jeep is awesome. It speaks for itself, runs like a dream, and puts a huge smile on your face while driving around. Does get tons of attention, so be prepared to talk a lot about it. I am more interested in a trade rather than selling.
Rides I’ll consider: Classic American Muscle 60’s to late 70’s, 1980 Corvette, classic trucks.
Please no spam, and don’t need to sell so no idiotic offers. Must also love jeeps and respect the history of this fine automobile.
I am bringing it to my mechanic to have him put new brakes on this week. Better to be safe in this mini-tank.”

UPDATE: Price dropped to $2900
(12/03/2011) This look solid.
“Title in my name. Runs good, drives down the road good, everything works. Transfer case is a little noisy but still works fine. Pretty solid old jeep. Good seats. Body has minor dents and dings from the many years on the deer lease. Has had some rust repair on the floors. The previous owner did a good job fixing the floors. Has a metal top that you can take off but no doors. The spare tire rack on the back and the rear mirror does not go with the jeep as it belongs to my other jeep. This jeep is all original and would make an excellent candidate for a restore. If you are interested call 214-728-6369 or email./text. I would also consider a trade for something that is more driveable such as a short bed truck or american made car. Bobby”
