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 .

“Very cool Willys Jeeps for sale. Built over the last two years from combined 47CJ2A and later CJ3B it has most of the things you want on a Willys build. I still have a ton of parts left over from the two jeeps, infact the list is too long to put here. Great CJ2A body blasted, primed, and painted along with frame, and most everyother part you can think of. Virtually everything was replaced or rebuild. Extra 4 Cyclinder Ford motor in addition to the original WIllys motor installed. Brake update kits, all running gear and steering components have been rebuilt or replaced. No telling how much time and money invested. Time and space will no longer allow me to keep it. New projects coming soon and we need the room and cash. Everything that I have goes with it, extra everything. Drove it summer before last haven’t started it since then. Does have tow bar and I know that put a little gas in the carb, she will fire right up! Contact with questions, remember time is short so serious interest only. Can send more photos on request.”
