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 .

Jason’s got this Willys MBT trailer for sale. He reports that it has never been rebuilt or repainted.
“Up for auction is an original WWII Willys MB Trailer! These trailers are super rare to find in this condition if you can even find them at all! This is an unmolested, uncut, original trailer. I purchased this many many years ago from a gentleman that was in his 80s and had used it behind his Willys MB. The trailer is not registered and has never been used by me. It has always sat in my garage since purchasing it. I do not have a title for it as there was no title when I purchased it. I will include a bill of sale. There are no numbers stamped on the reproduction data plate so you can add what you wish. The trailer has a few markings of 293 stamped on a few pieces of metal. The original leg also has a stamping on it.
The trailer is not in factory new condition. It is over 70 years old and incredibly hard to find one in this shape. It would make a fantastic addition to someone’s WWII Willys MB or Ford GPW!
I do not even want to part with it as I’m well aware of how rare it is but I need to free up some room for other projects.
The hand brake works. I have never plugged in the cable but the lights and all wires appear in good condition so I assume they all work as well.
Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer and I will do my best to assist where I can.”
These aren’t easy to find.

Scott shared these pics of this nice looking truck with a plow and wrecker. The owner’s family was a Willys dealer and apparently has a variety of vintage jeeps.
Here’s a photo of a rare “Double Ender”, a CJ-5 with two fronts, shared by Joe. The photo was provided to Joe by a friend who said the photo is about twenty years old. The only other jeep I’ve seen like this is a flat fender that was for sale on eBay years ago.

(08/28/2018) This body sits on a CJ-7 chassis. The long chassis means the grill is moved forward. The fenders have been moved forward as well and, though it’s not easy to see, there must be a filler piece between the cowl and the fenders.

“First generation of mass produced consumer Jeeps/Willys. This is a project vehicle. It currently has a Buick v6 swap in it (super common, it’s what jeep used from the factory in the 60’s and gives a substantial power upgraded from the sluggish 60hp inline 4). I’m not sure if it runs or not, never got around to testing it. Dried coolant around one of the heads leads me to believe it will need a rebuild. Odometer reads around 50k miles, not sure when the swap was completed though. Rust is minimal considering the vehicles age. The worst in the standard spots under the driver seat and near the side rails. Body’s straight, shows no signs of ever being in an accident. Clean title in hand.”
Big Willy made a good impact at Burning Man this year. Barry shard this photo by Susan Clemens of Big Willy at Burning Man dressed in some neon.
Motor Trend published this photo, which also has other photos of mutant vehicles.
Ian published this photo on Facebook.
Someone sent this link to me, but I can’t remember who. Has anyone seen Jamie’s jeep in person? I’d be curious to see pics of those tire adapters. The link provides some details on the build.

Nice build.

“Complete frame off restoration was done starting in 2008. New reproduction body was purchased from Willys Overland in Toledo, OH. All drive train components, springs, transmission, engine, etc were either professionally rebuilt and or replaced-all receipts come with purchase. Body and paint work were done by auto body professional in a authentic Luzon Red with harvest yellow rims and accent paint. This vehicle has been driven less than 500 miles since restoration was completed in 2009. I’m regretfully selling this jeep since I have 4 others and I need to part with some of them due family obligations and a major house renovation. It is as stock new as it was it came off the factory floor and is ready for the beach, the mountains, the ranch or the farm.”
It’s powered by an f-head. Looks solid.
