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 .

“1951 Willys CJ3A
Buick 231 or 3.8 v6 HEI, Manual transmission, Hurst shifter (I believe its a t10), front locking hubs, old dry rotted 31×10.5r15 on very cool vintage wheels. It has a clean California title in my name with a hull number. Currently non op and current on all fees. This is a sweet little old flat fender built by an older gentleman in Sacramento as a offroad/ hunting rig. It has a home built roll cage, seats out of a late model car, and a questionable fuel cell. I have a new carb, battery, and new ignition switch for it (not installed). It runs and drives but no you aren’t going to drive it to the rubicon trail without bleeding the brakes and the fuel cell cleaned out or replaced and probably some new tires. Its a very fun little yellow jeep and it will turn heads whatever you decide to do with it. It even has a hitch on the back if you want to drag a small boat or trailer around town. The paint is old and worn and has dent in passanger rear quarter panel and scratches an scars from its offroad history but nothing that isn’t easily fixable or detracts from the overall patina.
$3500 and no I wont trade for dope… some people’s kids”
The pics could show more of the body . . .

“I’m selling my 1950 Jeep Willys. It runs great! Jeep is in excellent condition. It’s a 1950 so there are things that need to be done. The emergency brake doesn’t work, has some play in the steering and the speedometer is not accurate. Other than that, it fires right up and drives very well. I enjoyed goofing off in it with my son but he is college bound so it’s someone else’s turn. No scammers! If you can’t personally be here to buy it with cash then you can’t have it.”

The whose-it-what-huh? I’ve did a few searches and added some more info following the jeep photos.
BACKSTORY: A few months ago Nick discovered someone with an APU. We assumed it was a O.E. Szekely modified APU, as that’s the only type anyone had unearthed. That’s why Nick was shocked when he took the time to visit the man with the APU. There, he discovered it was made by the Valentine Welder and Manufacturing Company. Once he saw it, he knew he had to have it. He made an offer and bought it. Nick shared more over at G503:
