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 .

The Can has been replaced, in black primer and many other things. I used it for many years at my land but I sold it this spring and it is just sitting now and I have no where to use it.

“I have a ’48 Jeep with 6′ Jacob’s blade….and for the last 20-years it’s been used to plow a small mountain driveway. I bought it last year thinking I would be able to use it on my mountain drive. However we ended up paving the road and it’s no longer needed. (In all honesty, it’s been just sitting since I brought it home). In that time the brakes have lost pedal, and I know the clutch needs adjusting. But it does run great has a 12v system, electric fuel pump and tire chains. It’s really pretty cool, and I hate to sell it, but….. Currently it’s at a friends house in Lakewood, so please call me to set up a time to see (buy?) it.”

UPDATE: Status Unknown. Was Make Offer.
This might have some Kelly Hubs on it (I don’t see the indent that Cutlas hubs have on them). The basket on the rear sure seems like it would be useful.

“Fully restored 48 Willys CJ-3a (Flatfender). Just over 2,700 miles since completion. Well over 1,800 hours of love and care to make this Willys one of finest flatfenders you will ever find. It has been lovingly frame off restored. Every nut and bolt replaced during the restoration a few years ago. Features Dana 25 Front Axle, Dana 44 Rear Axle (we believe), Dana T90 Transmission, Warn overdrive, Dana 18 Transfer Case, Ford 200 inline 6 cylinder (for more power compared to the original 4 banger).
New steering box, new tilt steering column, new gauges, new clutch, new brakes, new Rancho leaf springs, new Warn hubs, new front bumper, new rear bumper, new wheels and tires, new lights, new wiring, and on and on. The highback seats (with seatbelts) are certainly not what came OEM from Willys but are certainly way more comfortable. Rear Bestop seat functions well and has seatbelts for the kiddos (safety first).
Might be worth a look at this price.
