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 .
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8700.
(09/18/2018) Has a V8.
“1950 Willys Jeepster Phantom, interested in cash or trade on 1986/2000 Wrangler Jeep.
This jeepster has, Chevy drive train, 307 Chevy motor, automatic transmission, Chevy Vega rear end, tilt- telescoptic steering wheel and new Hankook white wall tires with new Willys hub caps.”
Here is a good example of how NOT to photograph a car: half in and half out of the shade. Also. it is a Jeepster PHAETON, not a “Phantom”.
It’s possible that Phaeton was autocorrected to Phantom, but the poor quality photos only hurt the seller.
Almost a decade ago I put together some photographic tips. It’s probably worth updating as I’ve learned a thing or two since then and the quality of phone photos has improved immensely: http://www.ewillys.com/2010/09/11/photographic-tips-for-craigslist-ebay/
This Jeepster also has the new 1950 front fenders, , but the older style hood, dash, and grille with the T-bar. . Poor photos don’t give a good representation.
Is the Jeepster you have still for sale for $8700? If so please let me know. Thanks
Hi Robert,
Hi Robert,
It looks like this Jeepster must have sold. I checked the Missoula Craigslist to see if any others were in the area, but didn’t see any. I’ve updated the post.
