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 .

Dan spotted this wagon.
“I bought this wagon to be my winter driver but then found a ’89 Grand Wagoneer and decided to keep it instead. Tough decision. Over the years I have owned three other Utility Wagons and this one is a match to my favorite of those three. If not for money issues I’d keep it for sure.
Your magnet will love this rig: if there’s any rust I haven’t found it. The two-tone paint has been resprayed once. The white is fine; the gold is sunburnt. Front seats have been recovered; rear seats are factory. Overall the car is complete and pretty-much all original. Interior needs some tlc but it’s all there. Headliner is serviceable.
One owner for over fifty years. Purchased new here in Bend. I got it from his daughter and son-in-law who had intended to use it as a marketing tool for a business that never materialized. They spent a ton of money on it and then it sat. Zero miles on tie-rod ends, seals, radiator, carb, tires, brakes, and more. Glass is good. As I recall the mileage on the car is just over 100K.
Owner’s manual, service manual, clean title. The 230 OHC Tornado runs well. Fuel/vacuum pump leaks, charging system needs attention. I haven’t yet driven the Jeep but it’s very close to being streetable.
I’ll entertain cash offers but I will not give the car away. Try and find another one as original and unmolested as this….”
