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 .
Derek Redmond has updated the “Gold Jeeps of 1961” page with new information on the Surrey that was painted gold for the 1961 Chicago Auto Show.

Andy spotted this project Hobart Welder.

“HOBART WELDER on HEAVY DUTY TRAILER powered with Willy’s 4-cylinder FLAT HEAD JEEP ENGINE. $225 OBO. CASH IN PERSON ONLY: So you are getting the welder, the trailer which carries the welder and a complete Flat Head Willy’s 4 cylinder Jeep Engine & radiator All For One Money. The welder housing covers everything nicely and the engine looks nice and is complete. This was bought as a project last year. Other things have come up leaving no time for the project. Maybe this is your new project? There are no welding leads or accessories. I have never had anything running. I don’t know if it will run or work and I’m not taking the time to mess with it. The ask price reflects that fact. I can pick up everything and set it in your truck or trailer with no hassle. Thank you for looking at my add. Times being what they are, I need to add this paragraph: This is an in-person cash only sale. Not interested in trades. What you see is what you get with no warranty expressed or implied. Scammers are not welcome, so don’t waste your time or mine. If it’s listed, it’s available so don’t ask.”

“Nothing else in these photos are for sell only Selling my 1949 Willys CJ3A. This is a project Jeep. It has a Chevy 283 V8 with a T90 transmission and a Dana 18 transfer case. The frame is straight. It has Ford Model A wheels up front. Body is rough but usable. Firm on price. Im selling for what the motor is worth.”
UPDATE: This was originally posted back in January of 2020:
This August 1955 article in Popular Mechanics includes 2 CJ-5s. It took a nuclear scientist to locate the article (long story), but it dove tails nicely off yesterday’s Willys News post that included an article on uranium mining (last page of Willys News) about these two prospectors.
Given how these are priced as projects, this doesn’t seem like a crazy price to me.

Here’s a good example of a model 90 Empire Tractor.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1802997260190701
“Empire tractor built in Philadelphia PA using Jeep componthrents from radiator to rear end including the entire drivetrain. This unit has many original parts including hoses, hose clamps, wiring and wire clamps. Engine and drivetrain are all original. Tool box is a reproduction. The light switch has been changed and possibly the temperature gauge. It’s a three speed with a two speed transfer case. Road speed is 25mph plus. Reason for selling : I’m older than the tractor and loading/unloading at shows has become a chore.”
