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 .
Includes a hardtop.

(01/25/2016) Includes a rear PTO.
“Hi all, for sale is a 1959 Willys FC-150 truck. It has the 3 speed transmission, 3 speed transfer case, and the hurricane f-134 f-head 4 cylinder. Clean title, solid bed, and solid cab. Does not have the typical windshield frame rust. Factory optioned rear pto. Includes spare tire. Passenger door window is broken bus is flat glass that can be cut. Windshield is not chipped or cracked and all of the hard to find parts are there. Has 39,000 original miles and engine runs well, but could use a tune up. Will need brakes and electrical work to be a driver. Willys only made about 3,000 of these trucks in 1959, so they are a pretty rare find. This is a true 1 ton work truck!
Would consider trades for an air-cooled vw (either bus, truck, beetle, or type 3 or 4), a few nice guitars and cash, nice amplifiers and cash, a newer truck, or a chevy corvair.”

Has some updates.
“My phone does not accept texts or pictures.
This is a 1949 Willys Jeep 4X4 P.U.; clear title; 235 in-line 6 cyl. Chevy engine; 3 -speed floor shift, manual transmission; High-Low 4X4; good interior, only one cracked glass (rear); signal lights; 12 volt system; no rust or body damage. Currently running on electric fuel pump; 15″ tires and wheels. Also, I have all 5 of the original 16” wheels with tires. Runs very good. The steering sector is worn and needs replacing. ( I have the replacement part, but have not put it on because most guys like to change over to P.S.)
Will consider trading for equal value on a Classic vehicle, late model P. U. or S.U.V., or worthy farm tractor, wheel lift or car hauler wrecker.
$8000 cash. Or, if you have a worthy trade, send pics of “whatcha got”. If I am interested, I will reply quickly. No motor cycles, 4 wheelers, boats, or “low ball” offers. Just checking to see if there is something out there that I like better. Thanks for reading.”
