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 .

It’s a project that includes a warn overdrive. The body appears in good shape.
“Classic Willys 4×4 in great condition to restore. Maroon and white.
Original basketweave headliner in amazing shape.
Hurricane straight 6 engine. I have all the pieces to this car except
for the spare tire guard. Years ago I bought a bunch of unblemished interior panels to replace the flawed ones. I believe I have the full set…they just screw on.
I bought two replacement arm rests for the back seats. Have a couple of rolls of piping for headliner edges.
As you can see the woven headliner is still intact and cool.
The sheet metal is predominantly straight, as is the stainless. Front bumper has a bend that needs straightening. There is one rust thru spot in the sheetmetal about 3 inches long near the back right wheel.
I have all the wood slats for floor, all the seats, the spare tire. The last picture is of the extra transmission that allows overdrive, if one wants to install that feature.
I haven’t driven it since 2000 or so…but it’s a worthy project for restoration being so original and relatively good shape.
It’s a project.

That windshield doesn’t appear to fit well (gap between the cowl and windshield. It’s also not clear to me that it would hold up for long even under moderate speeds (hard to tell how it is anchored to the body).

Yours truly taking a selfie at the Snake River completely oblivious to the fact that minutes earlier (just as we were crossing the Snake River Bridge), Eddie Braun was completing Evil Knievel’s jump across the river. We couldn’t have been more oblivious to it.
Beginning on Friday September 23rd, a small caravan of Ann’s cousins traveled to New Mexico to surprise Ann’s uncle, who recently retired. I couldn’t report on our trip, because this was all a top secret surprise and sometimes Ann’s aunt sometimes reads eWillys to follow our trips. Besides, we mostly just drove during the day and RVed at Walmarts at night. That’s why emails have been delayed and posts limited. On Tuesday regular updates will resume.
Left on Friday morning. Spent Friday night in Brigham City, then Saturday night in Farmington. Arrived in Tularosa on Sunday.
The only hiccup was a blown tire on one of the trucks. Then, we couldn’t find the socket to unlock the spare. We persevered and eventually loosed the spare, canalized some lug nuts from another truck, and got back on the road.
The Brigham City, Utah, Walmart is a nice place to stay (and free) with a great view of the mountains.
Rick built this nice looking wagon. I plan to see this in person the next time I’m in Spanaway, Washington.
Roger sent us a second report: “This near Son, Netherlands where my dad jumped in the Market Garden invasion September 17th 1944. My dad Jim Martin and I rode in a convoy of military vehicle. This GPW Jeep belongs to Han Pulles. My friend Kevin and I rode in Han’s Jeep with his son Barry. Dad road in one of the trucks. We had a great time. Thanks to Han and his son Barry for taking us along for the ride!”
