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 snagged this rare Heavy Duty ‘Jeep’ 6 Engine and Power Unit off of eBay for a good price. I’ve never seen another of these. Given the Kaiser Willys Motors branding and the lack of a date/ad stamp, I’d say this was mid-1950s.
This appears to be a series of CJ-3Bs that are ready for some kind of shipment.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay. The final price on this was $55!
I was in the bidding for a short time on this, but it quickly reached more than I was willing to pay. It was at $12.50 when I dropped out.
Runs and drives.

“This is a 1952 Jeep Willy ready for some additional love and fun. This has a brand new 350 motor with less than 100 miles on it. We replaced the steering gear box as well as the the steering linkage. We put a brand new disc conversion kit on the front. New power disc brake set up and aluminum radiator.
Picked up a new gas tank as well and has mustang seats for the front. We also have a rear seat that is not pictured. We put a turbo 400 tranny in this that only had 30,000 miles on it. Here are the things it still may need……not all the gauges work. There are no brake rear lights, but there is a brake switch on the brake pedal so just needs to be wired. Transfer case has never been worked on or replace so may need attention. You will also need to get the locking hub caps before being able to engage the front axle.
We are more interested in trading for something you may have that is KOOL……but must be KOOL. Here are some things that we would consider. Early air cooled Bug, Thing, or a scamp trailer.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(07/01/2019) Has a few updates. Looks in good shape. The body lacks drain holes and the hood has no Willys insignia. This could have an aftermarket body.

Because this sits on a post 1971 CJ-5 chassis, the grille sits about 3″ farther forward than on a standard flattie, so the fenders and hood will have to be modified to fit.

Ann and I will be making a very quick trip down to California to visit my daughter in Walnut Creek for the weekend. I may be out of service for much of today as we drive down central Oregon, so don’t expect any quick email (d @ deilers.com) replies today.
UPDATE: My bad. I believe that only members of that FB group can see the video. When I clicked on the link it opened just fine.
This year’s Fall Color Tour in Colorado (Sept 15-20) is currently ongoing. This past weekend Lew was provided the rare opportunity to test drive a Davis 3-wheeled prototype Jeep Car. Here are a few screen shots from the video.

Listed as a 1944, this has a mix of mostly CJ and a few military parts. To me, it’s most likely a VEC CJ-2A.

“I bought this 1967 Cj5 a few years ago as a project for my son and I, it was not running at the time. We kind of lost interest but it now runs good, drives, and stops. Have driven it around the yard and shouldn’t take much more to be road worthy. Has Dauntless 225v6, D18 transfer case, T86 3 speed transmission, new tires, radiator, Pertronix ignition, alternator, fuel pump, fuel tank, seats, headers and mufflers. This is a steel body that has been worked. Has not been registered for many years but do have a title for it. Have a collection of many extra parts to go as well that came with it when I bought it, differentials, transfer cases, transmissions, axles, spare Dauntless, etc. I’m sure someone with more knowledge of old jeeps would know what the usage would be. This is a good project Jeep.”
