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 .
I wonder how long this has sat.

“This mud racer was built from the ground up. I don’t have a pic of the tires that come with but for the best info I can give you my father’s number. Very serious car. Nitrous system. Fiberglass body”
It’s project with potential.

“Willy’s custom frame 9 inch ford rear ended 44 front total project don’t be misunderstood. Have everything pretty much to finish windshield soft top lots extras. Comes with no engine no transmission. Unfortunately have lost interest my bad. Set up for sbc or bbc. If interested feel free to call I can let you no what’s done and what needs done. Serious inquiries only firm on price. Have Lenco 2 speed and 20 transfer case available for more money.”
It looks like it has a DJ-3A convertible body and a DJ-3A grille.

“No paperwork. Jeep has been setting for 20 years. It took a bit to the front. Frame is repairable. Trans to transfer case is broken but might be repairable.”
This might be a Jeepster Convertible (rather than the Jeepster Commando).

“1968 Jeepster Comando with a V8 and turbo 400 Auto trans. Runs but needs a carb rebuild and a tranny mount and a lot of TLC Currently non-op”
Listed as a 1951, it looks like a CJ-2A.

“Classic 1951 Willys Wrangler! Not many of these around! Perfect project car for those who are looking for one! Last ran about 5 years ago when parked. Needs a good home. I am giving it up due to lack of time. All parts are there. $3k OBO.”
This is a good example of a CJ-2A chassis with a replacement body that’s being mistakenly sold as a “military jeep”.

Paul’s got this nice looking truck for sale.
“Up for sale is a nice looking, driving and stopping 1953 Willys truck. Originally from the Colorado area. She starts great and shifts in both hi and low range as it should. Many new parts replaced. New plastic gas tank and electric fuel pump.

Windows roll up and down and doors open and close all new inner handles. I have a new complete wiring harness ready for new owner to install. Headlights work both hi and low. Dome lamp also works the paint is 38 plus years old and shines well but was done poorly when applied. Bed is very solid and has been
Rhino lined as is the cab floor. She’s not perfect but she’s also not 20k. Old school patina look.”
Not sure if there is rust along the passenger side or not.

“Great island car. Jeep starts and runs. there is a knock in the engine that just started.”
The engine fires on this creation. Looks like a 3B hood on a CJ-5 grille with a CJ-2A windshield?

I thought I’d seen this for sale, but I didn’t find it in my archives.
