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 $2500.
Runs and drives.
“1948 Jeep Willy’s. Starts, runs and drives. New battery. It’s located in Shelby Tx”
I tried to pm this guy but no response. Can anyone tell me what to do when Facebook shows the guy’s phone number as “Hidden Information” instead of his number?
I just checked the ad and it now says, “Sold.” Looks like it was good price if it does run and drive. To answer your question, find someone who is on Facebook and have them get the number for you. I’m not on Facebook either and it seems as if more and more ads are appearing on Facebook.
Scott: Thanks for the update. I’ve updated the post. You are correct, more and more ads are appearing on FB. It’s not just jeeps either. I was looking for some local workout equipment and there was far more options on FB than on my regional Craigslist.
Worse, FB’s search is terrible, much worse that Craigslist (not that Craigslist was the greatest for searching either). FB also doesn’t allow access for third parties to create nation-wide or better search options.
Moreover, when I do a search and adjust the filters, when I want to change locations, I have to redo all the filters every time. I can’t figured out a way to make them filters ‘stick’. grrrr ….
I’m also seeing that to gain access to FB Marketplace, new members of FB have to wait up to four months for access. I have not verified this; just saw folks mentioning it in some forums.
Unfortunately, FB Marketplace seems to be the current future of classified online ads. I for one don’t like it (for all the reasons listed above and more).
Terry: As Scott mentioned, you are probably stuck either using someone else’s account or creating an account with as limited info as possible.
I was 30 minutes away from this one. It had a title which around here is rare (most deer hunter jeeps are trash, left outside at the lease). Oh well.
