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: Still Available

“1949 Willys Jeep this is a good solid body and frame axles and roll bar. No engine, transmission or transfer case. I do have the drive lines, it has a GM steering box and pump, engine mounts ect… This has been sitting in storage for many years but still no time for the project.”

I want that roll bar.
Dennis,
I’ll keep an eye out for roll cages for the low hood flat fenders. They do pop up from time to time in the Seattle/Portland area (pretty common around here) and I don’t always list them.
The downside for that specific style where the bars between the front and rear loops aren’t mounted out to the edge of the curves is that if you run really tight trails in the PNW (the Manashtash Ridge trail in the Cascades comes to mind), trees can actually get caught in between the front and rear loops. Of course, finding a trail that tight doesn’t happen too often, but when it does you’ll be cursing yourself 🙂

Thanks, Dave. Been “looking” lightly. Don’t really need one as I don’t plan to wheel my Willys. It would help for when I want to put a bikini top on in the spring.
There is a guy about 20 minutes away that has a couple of flat fenders parked in the drive that have not moved in a while. One does have a roll bar like this one, but all the “No trespassing” sighs worry me ( That and it does not look like anyone lives there.)
Yeah, then that type of cage would work fine. Regarding the no trespassing signs, I can’t blame you for not running up to the front door and knocking 🙂
Thought about driving my 2A there but that maybe how he acquires his Jeeps! LOL!
