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: Back in May of 2011 Mike forwarded me the below ad. This morning Craig pointed out that Dan over at Hemmings did a nice article about the stainless bodies along with the seller of these kits.
The buyer apparently bought out a stainless supplier in the Philippines. Call the seller for more info.
Fantastic price but there’s many hundreds of hours of metalwork necessary before a stainless body is strong enough for use. I’ll bet the inner surface of the tailgate is missing the jerry can/spare tire mount reinforcements, the body floor hat channels might not line up with the mounting tabs on an original frame not to mention all the cutting, filing and fitting for lights, instruments, steering column, etc. A well equipped shop is vital to build up a stainless Willys unless you happen to have a very thick wallet.
I just don’t see the point. You can find a decent rig with good steel body that has lasted 60 years at that price. And way easier to work with. Like Paul said, you better come prepared.
I have seen these jeep bodys not very good quality and the parts dont match up
NOTHING LIKE THE OLD STAINLESS JEWELS BODY KITS.
But still have to say there cool
i think there is alot of money and hard work to finish these
i dont think most people have the shop to work on these
to much welding and cutting to make fit good.
