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 .
Unclear how much value is here.

“Rare chance to own a piece of Jeep Willy’s history! You don’t see these very often. Here what may be your only chance to own the coolest truck in town! I’m Selling this 1960 Jeep willys FC-170.

I have 10 of them and this is one of my better ones. Very solid bones. No motor or trans. CLEAN TITLE IN HAND Not interested in trades. $6000 cash only Located in Grand County, Co.

“Willys Jeep parts M38 style with some differences. Tailgate has all reinforcements but never had holes drilled to mount the tire or gas can. Grill has military and civilian features. I think this may have been a DJ when Willys built it, they often used up leftover and over run parts for the DJ’s.
The one large section of transmission cover pictured has been sold.
M38 hood has been sold, now includes a Willys stamped hood in fair condition.
$450 for all or message for individual parts.”

“Willy’s jeep 2L head motor one stuck other one ran 2 thousand a fair price”
I ran across these rare brochure on eBay. They aren’t in the best of shape, but better than nothing!
The first one became effective April 1, 1950, for The Willys Station Wagon and The Willys Jeepster. It is a simple four-page brochure with a choice of six palettes.
The second brochure does not include the Jeepster.This 1951 brochure gives a branding name to each color choice: Jamaica, Grand Canyon, and Caribbean. Note that this four-page brochure includes the Willys Makes Sense slogan from the Willys Makes Sense campaign the company implemented across it’s adverting in 1951:
UPDATE: Price has dropped to $85.
Thanks to Tom for spotting this. Asking price is $150, but it lacks a steering wheel and is a little rough. This is the tow-seat version. It has a casting number of 8.

Seller wants to sell everything but the frame. But, the frame has been patched (at least on the driver’s side), so why not just start over with a new frame? I don’t know …

“I am wanting to do a total over haul on my 1946 willys jeep so I need to sell almost everything off of it such as the motor, transmission, axles, brakes, two gas tanks one in the rear and one under the drivers seat, radiator, wheels and tires, roll cage and suspension. If I didn’t list something that you want then just ask I might sell it but I’m wanting to KEEP the entire frame, shell, rack, and winch.
Some details on the parts, can provide tons more pictures and anymore info upon request! All prices are before shipping costs.
Engine: Buick Even Fire V6, brand new edelbrock 1901 AVS2 4 barrel carberator with electric choke, brand new edelbrock 14” air cleaner, brand new spark plugs, brand new edelbrock phenolic carburetor spacer, polished valve covers, stainless steel long tube headers, power steering. PENDING
Radiator: Crossflow aluminum radiator, it definitely kept the engine cool on those long days of crawling. $125
Transmission: Believe it’s a t86 or a t98 with a t18 transfer case and a warn overdrive. Has a total of 4 shift levers, insanely good for going anywhere in the mountains. SOLD Front axle: wide track DANA 30 out of a 70’s CJ5 with 11” disc brakes. Brakes are in really great shape just very minor surface rust not pitting what so ever. Warn manual locking hubs. SOLD Rear axle: Offset DANA 44 out of a 1971 mail Jeep. SOLD
Suspension: I believe that it has 3 or 4 inch lift on it, perfect for crawling. Not to tall at all to make it too heavy. Believe it’s stock leaf springs, shocks probably need to be replaced. SOLD
Roll cage is a bolt in cage, possibly might fit a CJ5 as well. $800”
