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 .
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4900.
This needs some additional work.

“Running 1941 willies army jeep. It needs a new paint job and seats. Email me for pics and details. Thanks.”
This has potential, but needs to be towed.
“This Willys is from New Mexico and has no rust other than a couple of small nicks in the paint. Paint is decent and interior is basic but clean. Chrome is in good shape. Mostly original except SB Chevy engine. I have a set of axles (Dana 44) from a ’76 Wagoneer that I intended on installing for better streetability that come with the Jeep. If you know Willys you know they are geared low so these axles provide modern street gearing and brakes. Last driven over a year ago but it will start. Everything works. The drive shaft and brake lines for rear axel are disconnected so you will have to tow it. It’s registered but needs inspection. It’s a very solid Willys and someone with a little more time than I have could have it on the road in a few days. I have the clear title and will accept cash only. To avoid the robot replies I ask that you please put Dana 44 in your reply so I don’t delete you out of frustration.”

Matt forwarded this rare M-677 for sale on eBay. The seller is willing to make an early deal.
“1964 JEEP WILLYS FORWARD CONTROL FC-170 M-677 CREW CAB 4X4 MARINE ISSUE.
This is an extremely rare version of the jeep fc-170. The m-677 was a crew cab and was a military issue only. Production number estimates are between 300-700 but to my knowledge nobody knows the actual number. Very few survive today. This is a really cool little jeep and gets tons of attention. I couldn’t get it home without having to talk to people everywhere I stopped. I’ve been to many carshows and never seen one. I’ve never seen one driving or anywhere in person until I bought it. This truck is mostly original and has only had a couple owners. The gentleman I bought it from had owned it since at least 1979, maybe earlier. I have registrations going back that far in his name. I believe he purchased it from a military or government auction. Original marine nomenclature tag is on the dash. It is hard to see all the numbers in the pics, but they are clearly visible in person and nothing is worn off. Here are all the details on the jeep/willys. Included is a picture link with MANY MORE PICTURES. Also some pics of other m677’s. Thanks.
UPDATE: WERE $60.

Engine runs, no brakes, body tub rusted out all floor pans are gone.

If you were to rebuild it would need a new suspension breaks body panels and a lot more but this jeep might be a good start.”
Ann and I drove to her VA appointment on Beacon Hill near downtown Seattle Wednesday, taking Interstate-5 northbound as usual. As we approached the Cleveland High School exit, I was babbling about something, since forgotten, when I looked west toward nothing in particular. Suddenly, I realized I was looking at two flatties. How I kept from wrecking while I was rubber-necking should be considered a miracle, because one of the two jeeps looked like an early Philippines Jeepney.
Ann realized I was staring at the two vehicles and knew I’d tell her we’d be investigating them a little closer. Fortunately, she’s a good sport.
After a little research, I discovered the jeeps are sitting on a container at the Marine Vacuum Services (Mar-Vac) yard. Here’s our photo (we left the camera with the telephone at home . . . sigh). Pretty neat! I don’t know how I’ve missed them all these years.
Here’s a view from Google Earth:
And a view from farther out:

Here’s a photo of Hugh’s CJ-2As from this past weekend. He was having so much fun in the 2A on the right that he ran out of gas :-).
He reports, “Spent the weekend driving my jeeps around. put new springs, shocks and hardware on the 47 on the left then added a set of sta super traxion tires. Then i went and got em muddy. I ran out of gas driving the od 47 jeep on the right.”
Marc spotted this photo. The caption indicates this was the 150th jeep, but the details on the reverse side of the photo confirm it was the 150,000th jeep, which makes more sense.
“You are bidding on an original 6 x 8 press photo of Cornersville IN Eleanor Ferreri Christens 150th Jeep Body at American Central Plant. Photographer Unknown. Dated 7/1/1943. The following stamps are on the back of the photo: NEA;ACME”
