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 .

(11/15/2015) Those are some unusual steps and drain holes.
“In excellent condition, ready for hunting ETC. Needs NOTHING, runs perfectly. 4X4 everything works accept wipers, no big deal.”
Great photos. I wish these were in color. They were published in the Jun 9, 1946, issue of the Milwaukee Journal and the June 16, 1946, issue of the Evening Star.
I think the author is overstating just how many muscles kids will get by operating this jeep. It was published by Montreal Gazette in 1973.
UPDATE: Price dropped to $6500. Mike noticed it’s got the bow holders on the passenger side. The body must be a left, perhaps the whole jeep.
The drain holes have been filled, but looks solid.

“This Jeep is rough. No title. Engine will probably run. It almost started for me. Trans works. It has been sitting for a while. Will need a lot of work. Will need clutch cable and brakes for sure. Wiring not too good either. Rust has claimed a lot of the sheet metal. Restoration not a job for amateurs. It is a starting point. NO TITLE! Bring cash or STAY HOME! Will text pics.”
