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 .
It’s rough, but may run.

“1947 Willys CJ2A – Fiberglass Tub, Hood & Fenders $8,000 boo
7,400 Miles
Vehicle is currently located in Colorado Springs, CO
The title on this unit is clear and it is in my name. It has a whole bunch of aftermarket parts including a fiberglass tub, hood and fenders on an original Willys frame with an original grill and a CJ3A windshield frame. The Jeep has Warn premium Lockout hubs all the way around and a tow bar which enable it to be flat towed. Why buy a Rubicon or a TJ when you can have the original for a fraction of the cost. There is no doubt about it. This rig is bad@ss.

Blaine spotted this great article on ‘hunting’ uranium in Utah. I’m sure there were many jeep used to explore southern Utah while chasing uranium, but finding pictures hasn’t been easy. This article written by Brett Huelen and published in the Canyon County Zephyr contains several jeep photos, along with some great stories from his time living in Southern Utah.
