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 .
This two-page Ramsey Winch brochure is dated 1959, but given there’s a wagoner on the front, it’s likely front 1963 or later. Still, it’s got some neat illustrations about how to winch.

UPDATE: Still Available.

“A 1967 Jeep CJ5. Bought this as a basket case and took it down to the frame. Frame and axles were cleaned and painted with POR15. Axles drained, cleaned out and refilled. Transmission is rebuilt by Herm-the-Overdrive guy. Brake lines all new and professionally installed, all new brake components. Rims cleaned and powder coated with new all-terrain tires installed.
Tub was removed cleaned and painted with year correct paint, undercoated with an asphalt sealer. New gas tank and lines installed, carburetor rebuilt. The entire electrical system is all new. Re-built Dauntless V6 installed, however compression is a little lower than it should be. Runs well but needs tweaked to get it running better. New exhaust system, new alternator, new gauges, new windshield, new Smittybuilt XRC 9.5K winch on an aftermarket bumper and new seats.
Like most of these will need a little tinkering to bring it up to it’s full potential but all the hard, and expensive stuff has been done. I have extra parts and an extra engine (that needs rebuilt) to go with it. Clear title. Have over $14.000 into it at this point but just don’t have the time to keep up with it and drive it. I’m probably forgetting lots of other things I’ve done and installed but you get the idea.
Hope to find it a good home. I’ve had a blast with it.
Can help with delivery if within 200 miles.”

It’s rough but could be a fun project for someone. I bought it with those intentions and then got bored with it.
Clean MN title”
Roger Martin shared this winning ad. Someone had some fun with this. Now, the seller is ready to let it go. The “price” suggests it is free, but the seller would like a buyer to make an offer.

Frank’s looking for an exhaust and intake manifold for a 1bbl. It needs to have the heat riser. It also needs to be in usable condition without any welded parts or cracks. If you have something, you can contact Frank at frankfrain @ gmail.com (delete spaces around @).
The hood is really throwing me on this one. It suggests the jeep is a low hood, but the body is 3B.

“1946 Willy’s CJ2A in very good condition, runs perfectly, always starts, has farm pro on the rear, black soft top, all numbers match, transmition stays in gear, original style tires in great shape, title and owners manual come with it.”
I’m guessing this was priced based on NADA. Still, it appears to be in good condition. Note the pipe along the passenger side fender. Any thoughts on why that is there? It does not appear to be related to the heater.

the “cage” on the back is just set there, for my puppies, it comes right off
This jeep runs and drives, however it has spun a bearing. The distributor was never oiled, and it siezed one day here at the farm. THe distributor runs the oil pump, and when we towed it to the shop, and fixed the problem, it has a very distinctive knock in the lower end.
There is no smoke, it was not run this way. It does start and run.”
