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 .
The birthday crew here at eWillys received a special request regarding Jesse Ybarra’s birthday today. Somebody asked if we celebrate birthdays. Our answer is sure, why not? So, happy birthday Jesse. And, we look forward to visiting 2016’s FC Roundup.
You can send him birthday wishes via the FC forum or on Facebook.

“Here is a really solid 1942 Ford GPW Jeep for sale.
It runs and drives great!
I have put over $8,000 in work on it in the past year to get it restored, but I moved to the city and no longer have the time and space to finish the restoration.
The engine was changed out back in the 1950s to the later Willys F head engine. Runs like a top.
Parts that have been rebuilt or replaced in the past year:
Suspension
Carburetor
Brakes
Wheels
Tires
Transmission
Transfer Case
Drive shafts
Wheel bearings
And a few other small things.
It functions really well, but just needs someone to come in and finish it for a really nice show or parade vehicle.
Own a piece of history!
I love this old jeep and don’t want to sell, but I just can’t give it the attention it needs and deserves.
Will be happy to answer any questions. ”
