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 .
UPDATE: Price dropped to $16,000.
Seems like a random price. Missing a few of the detail parts.

Roberto Flores found his own jeep-in-a-crate!
UPDATE: Here’s a third press photo of this family camping and picnicking. Below it is an advertisement based on the photo. This was part of the press release photo packet.

The postwar Jeep especially adapted for peacetime work, combines the four basic functions of tractor, light truck, mobile power unit and passenger conveyance.

A reader’s son has this one for sale.
“1971 CJ 5 jeep. Engine has been rebuilt. Wiring is brand new.
Runs very well! It didn’t have a back seat when I bought it, so I bought one but haven’t put it in yet. I also have some chrome pieces, bikini top, and some other pieces.
There are no holes in it. 4wd works great.
I also have an 8500 lb winch and some snow tires and rims I am selling in different posts that would work with this.”

“For Sale: One of a Kind 1947 Willy’s Jeep (CJ-2A)
This Jeep has been carefully rebuilt from the ground up over 3 years by my father, a retired certified ASEA mechanic. Starting from a sandblasted frame, new-off-shelf (N.O.S) parts were used whenever possible. Every piece has been carefully rebuilt and reassembled – you won’t find a cleaner, or more authentic rebuild of a 1947 Willy’s. Lots of fun to take off-road, or cruise around town with the windshield down. See below for details on each component. Thanks!
