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 .
This one has an unusual windshield and rollbar setup.

“1951 Willy’s jeep wanting to sell Will need to be towed the engine is damn near complete only missing a few external pieces like belt starter and alternator will need new spark plugs and wires ran last I knew engine is not installed”
This doesn’t run.

“Willys jeep, S10 frame, 350 motor …was a restoration project but not no more. needs vary little body work… or make offer
used to run may still…lots of parts with it…any rust is surface rust…I cleaned it out and put all spare parts back in, like windows and headlights and all lights”
This is an unusual jeep. It appears to be made of metal. Given the PRODUCTION ENGINEERING label across the windshield, it’s possible this was created by the Production Engineering Corp, out of Minneapolis, Minnesota, which specializes in sheet metal projects and other custom works. The company was launched in 1957, so it is possible.

“Probably used in a factory”
Terry notes that this is rough, but there seems there could be value here. Though listed as a 1947, the Lefty setup suggests that the body is from 1948. Note the rare 4-Wheel-Drive branded hubs.

“LEFTY? ‘47 CJ 2A No title, no drive train, Brenham, TX”
TJ spotted this project truck. It seems to have potential, though it lacks an engine. It appears to have a gov plate on the dash. The seller believes this to be an ex-fire department truck.

“Selling for a friend 1948 jeep Willys pick up truck It was part of the fire department, and there’s still a placard on the glove compartment.  What you see in the pictures as what you get. If you have any questions, send me a message. Thanks.  I don’t know why it says Bend Oregon, we don’t live in Bend Oregon. The truck is in Carson City, Nevada.”
This FC caught fire.

Listed as a 1955, this has the hinged grille and front-fenders-with-angle-joint, suggesting it is a 1952 or early 1953.

Thanks to Tom for sharing this one. This Baier lighter appears to lack the ashtray trailer. The tires are odd as well. (See a more original setup here)
