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. This section used to be split into jeeps, parts and other categories, but recent changes to eBay will require this information to be recoded.
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 is a project.

“This is a project that I’ve started and haven’t finished I’ve got a V6 that’s been checked out with new gaskets and gone through new rebuilt transmission automatic rebuilt transfer case and the adapter for the transfer case and transmission needs a lot more work, but will be really sweet when it’s done all body parts are there”

“As it goes, such is life. Time to send my project down the road. It’s a perfect restoration candidate. I purchased from grandson of original owner, non-running.
-Dauntless V6
-Manual transmission
-Cj6, with hardtop
-Matching keys work both doors and rear hatch!
-Swing out tire carrier/fuel carrier (needs work)
See video, now running, after I rebuilt the carb. I replaced fuel lines and drained the old tank, but haven’t tested it since. I ran it through the gears on jack stands, and it turned the rears in all 3 and reverse. Didn’t engaged 4WD.

“1946 CJ2A. This jeep has been sitting in a shed for close to 30 years. Has some kind of a 4cylinder Chevy engine in it. But it’s not mounted. Transmission has Chevy adapter installed and is mounted to the engine. someone was trying to install a power steering rack in it but it doesn’t look safe and will need to be replaced. The jeep is in overall good condition. It’s straight has minimal rust, minus the rot in the storage compartment under the passenger seat. There is NO PAPERWORK, NO ID TAGS NO LICENSE PLATE seats and fuel tank are gone as well. sold as parts jeep only. Tires hold air but are 30+ years old. I’m throwing in A spare tire with stock rim, two L134 Willy’s jeep engines (both buildable) one has a 2wd transmission bolted to it incase you wanted to build some kinda 2wd rat rod jeep..?”
Will, Sam, Gerald and I.
On Tuesday’s triple-digit afternoon, Gerald and his two kids dropped by for a short visit. Gerald and his son Will, from Pennsylvania, are visiting daughter Samantha, who now lives in Washington State, for the week. They’ve been exploring some of the state and on Tuesday their travels brought them to our humble home (technically, we never really made it past the shop).
The last time I’d seen the kids was eleven years ago at the 2013 Bantam Festival, and they were pretty young, so I didn’t recognize them at all. But, Gerald still looked the same … I’m not sure he’s even aged!?! Anyway, in 2013, Gerald gave us the grand tour in his CJ-3B of the Cooper Lake campground, a place they had camped for years.
Gerald was an early reader of eWillys (circa 2009 maybe?). As he put it on Tuesday, his online world consisted of The CJ-3B page and eWillys. Outside, of that, he really didn’t want much to do with the internet. His parents were involved in a local jeep club and also raced, so Gerald and I had shared, via email, many stories of growing up in the old jeep world, desert dogs, camping, etc.
While we talked on Tuesday, Will was checking out the racer, so it wasn’t long before I was running him around the property in it. Here’s a quick clip.
Then he climbed in, all smiles, for a chance to drive it. He didn’t go all that fast, but seemed to be enjoying himself.
The visit was all too short as they needed to make their way back to the Kelso area by nightfall, so we said our goodbyes. Perhaps we’ll see them if we make our way to the Willys Reunion next year.
Many thanks to Glenn Byron for sending me a box of documents to share with everyone. Some of the docs, like the one below, are copies made for Glenn by Dave Antram. So, thanks to Dave as well. This is Volume four, Issue number 1.
Here are a few oddball wood jeeps that I thought might interest folks.
1. These two jeeps were marked down to $65 as of this writing, but that expired yesterday. I suspect if you made an offer near that amount, the seller might accept. View all the information on eBay:
2) This jeep is listed at $25 or best offer. View all the information on eBay:
This looks pretty solid. I expect it has an f-head.
