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 .

“I purchased this jeep as a project in 06 and haven’t worked on it since. It is a WWII model that I believe was made by ford and has the turret plate on the frame. It was torn down for a body off frame restoration when I picked it up and is in the same condition now. The body and parts have been inside a barn, the engine and frame outside. If I remember correctly the engine is not the original but is out of a “newer” than this jeep. I was told it was running when it was torn down. The pictures are from when I picked it up. The jeep is titled in CO. Reply to this add with questions and for more pics. I have the ability to lift and load onto flatbed trailer.”

(11/02/2013) It’s a project.
“1947 jeep willys flattie. This is a project vehicle that has everything minus the engine. It is all setup to run a small block ford v8 in front of the c6 auto transmission, but i already sold the mustang motor that was in it. I started ground up restoration, taking the body off and sandblasting/painting the frame. Body is solid and virtually rust free (except some surface rust due to unfinished sanding and priming), as this was a southern tennesee vehicle. I have titled the vehicle in wisconsin, so no issues there. Basically an easy project to put back together as there isn’t much complication to these early jeeps. Flatfenders are getting harder to find in good condition, and this one is already all setup for a v8! Definayely will be one of a kind when finished. Asking 1800.00 or best offer, as I don’t have the time to finish.”
The King family has been taking annual family trips over the last five years. You can see some pics from last year’s trip here.
Jason King writes, Last Saturday was our 5th Annual Jeep Rally through Parke County Indiana. We enjoyed a 30 mile trip through the countryside, visited a Amish leather and saddle shop, road go karts and finished up with a campfire cookout.
Not the best photo of the posse.
