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.
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 .

The pictures on the craigslist ad show a windshield….The jeep looks slightly raised in the back…what do you think? Shackles? Looks as though it is well weighted down with accessories…
Randy,
I missed the updated pics with the windshield. I removed the missing windshield note.
I suspect this has some aftermarket springs in the back that give it some lift. I would expect with all the stuff in the back that this would sag in the back a little more. I wonder what this looks like without all the stuff in the back.

The more I look, The more I find…
The mechanical fuel pump is not connected…that must be an electric pump right above it.
Quite the spare tire mount….keeps it up high but appears to use the original mounting holes/location.
But I still like it…
…..and a rattle can on the drivers step for those trail related touch ups!
Rattle can…..I couldn’t figure out what that was….but now that you mention it! Must be a “work in progress”
That’s got to be an extinguisher of some kind. It’s in all the side view pics, so it must be attached…
Notice the tail lights, one light, one reflector and what looks like a backup light. No license plates…must be a dedicated hunting vehicle…
