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 .
UPDATE: Looks like these parts sold.
“I have many different items from 3 WWII Willys Army Jeeps. Items have the original stamps and other VIN numbers.
I have old pistons, grill, tailgate, wheels, gauges, etc.
Many parts are in mint condition and still usable! I’ll put “Excellent” as a condition even though it’s from one end of the spectrum to the other, just depending on what suits you”

(03/31/2018) Travis shared this jeep. It has a hard-to-find Boston Top.
“I’ve decided that I don’t have the time needed to restore this CJ as it deserves. The motor runs well, does not smoke.The rest is explained in the photos. It needs a full restoration. The tub needs extensive work, the clutch is frozen in neutral position and it has no brakes, it does not move under it’s own power, yet! It does have a fairly new battery, dist. cap, rotor, wires and plugs. I have pulled the starter, disassembled and cleaned it up and it works very well, especially with 12 volts whipping it over! Right now it has 12 volt ignition system but is no trouble putting it back to original. I have a brand new, in the box, repro fuel tank, the original leaks like a sieve! I also have a newer replacement tailgate and another set of wheels. These tires hold air as they should. These Jeeps are becoming pretty scarce! $2,000, Firm.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000.

These documents were in a late 1940s Willys Overland binder.
There seems to be a very slight difference between the two sprayer packages offered by Field Force Manufacturing. One package used a pump with stainless steel non-magnetic plungers that gave the pump higher capacity and more pressure capability. It weighed slightly more, too.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $13,000.

“VEHICLE IS LOCATED IN EDGEWOOD, IOWA… I may possibly be able to deliver within a reasonable distance if needed as long as buyer pays for gas…please contact me to make arrangements.
The last four pictures are what this Jeepster could look like fully restored. This redish/maroon color is the same original color of my Jeepster that is for sale before the previous owner painted it yellow.
For sale is a 1948 Willys Jeepster. This Jeepster is a 1948 model year with clean Iowa Title. Still has the original 4 cylinder Go Devil engine and 3 speed transmission with overdrive. The engine has had the head removed to have a crack professionaly repaired, the engine was never finished being put back together. I went through everything to make sure it all spins freely. It has a Holly carberator on it currently but the original intake manifold and carter carburator are in the trunk. It has the original generator in the trunk which appears rebuilt, but I only say it looks rebuilt because of how clean it is. The original starter is on the engine and it has a spare starter in the trunk. Chrome is all there but some of it was painted yellow.
