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 .
It appears to be a good price. I kinda wonder why it’s been bought and sold on craigslist so often.
“Nice old jeep! Runs great! goes through all speeds high and low range 12v converted.
tub in original patched up shape flat head 4 cyl brakes work great. It’s been on craigslist a few times. each owner has put a little more work into it. I don’t have a title or vin tag. excelent for parts with bill of sale. ”
I own this Jeep. Strange to see it pop up here on this site.
I guess I can answer that question. The original Vin Tag is Missing.
and the guy I bought it from said he’d give it to me when he found it. the guy before him took it off, so it wouldn’t get stolen.
but The kid I got it from can’t ever seem to find it.
What can I do I Love the Jeep! But I will never be able to drive it on the road.
I don’t really want to sell it. My wife won’t let me bring it to my house.
catch 22 I guess.

shoot me an e-mail on how I can get a vin tag and I’d be interested!
Thanks -e-

Hi Eric,
Thanks for the update on the VIN Tag. Given I spend a good chunk of time daily searching for flatties for sale, you shouldn’t be too surprised to see your jeep pop up here (though I doubt I find them all).
As for the VIN Tag and TItle options:
1) Purchase a VIN from someone else
2) Depending on the motor laws in your state, find a VIn number somewhere on the jeep. In some states, you can substitute the serial number from your motor (located on the flat boss, directly behind the water pump, and ahead of the cylinder head on your motor).
3) Learn what it takes to get a new title in your state.
Feel free to ask any additional questions
– Dave
Hey Dave!
Thanks for the info on the #’s behind the water pump.
It’s hard to give up on this jeep I remember when I was 16 and my parents
said no as a first car. 16 yrs later I finnaly get one!!
and I still can’t drive it down the road….legally..that is.
anyone out there selling a vin tag I’d be interested.
Thanks again -Eric
