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 .
Appears in good shape.

“$10k everything works. INDY but could take up north to WI where it was this summer. Guy said he wanted to look at it from KY and had a death in his family, so putting it back up. 57′ same drivetrain and frame as the jeeps in WW2! Would trade for bump side or dent sides.”
Thanks to John for sharing this one.

“Jeep hard top, fits older cj5 l was told, have doors”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $8000.
(12/10/2023) This is an interesting build, but the pics don’t show all the aspects. It’s possibly now a convertible (or just soft top) and has a tower blind attached to the bed.

“This is a very rare 1957 FC-150 forward cab Willys Jeep. It is most definitely a restoration project but wouldn’t take much to get it going again as it sits. The Jeep is very complete but will need some seats and a tailgate. The parts for these things are pretty easy to find and these trucks are becoming more collectible all the time. I bought it to restore but I have too many projects ahead of it. It has a clear Colorado title. Will consider trades.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(01/03/2024) Not sure how much value is here.

Only a couple updates this morning, as I spent all of Friday building a framework to remove the FC’s bed. Unfortunately, my tractor isn’t quite bit enough to lift the bed, so I had to develop an alternative strategy. The framework is mostly made from wood that was formerly a dove coop, so it’s nice to put it to some use after storing it for a couple years.
Of course, the plan went sideways when the FC wouldn’t start. I eventually figured out that the electric fuel pump had stopped working. Once replaced, the jeep started right up (didn’t really want to push the FC around).
With the bed off, I will start with working on the FC’s mechanicals. For example, the transfercase low range was never connected, so that is something I need to address. In addition, some working needs completion and the brakes and break pedal need some attention.
Here are a few photos:
This April 1960 Jeep Service and Parks News bulletin is four pages. I thought the four-different propeller types used and serviced was an interesting tidbit. The updated knuckle setup for the DJ-3A wasn’t something I was aware of either.
