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. This section used to be split into jeeps, parts and other categories, but recent changes to eBay will require this information to be recoded.
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 .
This November 1962 four-page issue is all about the new J-series jeeps.
I thought the inclusion of an ad from Willys Motors of a CJ-5 with a wood bumper (presumably for pushing vehicles) was an odd choice. Why not instead include it with a 3rd party metal push plate? After all, Canfield was making an all metal “pushwood” bumper attachment by 1952, so it’s unclear to me why Willys Motors would feature a wooded bumper in a 1958 ad? Perhaps this was a little known 3rd party wood bumper?
Speaking of service jeeps, Glenn shared this photo of a neat looking dually service jeep off of Facebook.
The caption reads: “Here is a postcard of the Pig Hip Restaurant and Edwards City Service station (later the Phillips 66), 101 West Oak St., Broadwell, Illinois on Route 66.”
This has a variety of mods, but still has GPW tool box lids.

“1942 Willys jeep.Front end of Jeep has a 8000 pound warm sidewire, winch. Front end has been completely rebuilt. It has a V six motor with throttle body Injection. It has disc breaks all the way around and hubs all the way around. Transfer case is brand new is a 29 tooth instead of 26. The rear end has a floating rear axle. To lock in hubs and to tow.

Looks like a good price for all of that.

“1952 Jeep Willys, 350ci Chevy small block with automatic transmission, 2-4 barrel carburetors, Completely Done, Ready to Run.”
John spotted this part. I don’t think I’ve seen a side panel shaped like that. Was it in 1975 or 1976 that the Jeep name was dropped so low on the cowl?

“NOS Body Side from dealer, original AMC Jeep part. Located just off exit 27 of I-80. Many other Jeep CJ parts available.”
It’s a project. It appears to have a Ford frame, but it has MB tool box lids.

“1943 Ford GPW. Needs a new starter, oil pump, oil filter and radiator. Other than that runs great. I have 4 Denman tires and a winch that goes with it. Send me an offer!”
UPDATE: Still Available. Will notes that the CJ-5 body is sitting on an FC-150 wide-track chassis. This unusual CJ-5 looks widened..
