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: Still Available.

Not many of these Electruck DJ-5E jeeps around. Seller indicates it is only 1 of 352. There are also two different brochures available on eBay for them. Brochure 1 and Brochure 2

This is a one of a kind right hand drive electric jeep. I bought this in 2011 and just “put it back” with my other collection of postal jeeps. It is now coming up for sale as I need room. It is showroom perfect, just drop in some new batteries.

UPDATE: Thanks to readers for identifying this as most likely a scam (see comments).
This might be a good price at $10k. It sure looks fully rebuilt. No description provided.
The “Easy-Way” post-hole digger was manufactured by Standar Steel Works out of Kansas City, MO. I thought i’d done a post on the early post-hole diggers that were available, but I hadn’t. So, expect that one soon.
Roberto Flores forwarded these resin model kids. I am unfamiliar with the sellers or the product.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $9500.
The body has had some body work, but I suspect all of our bodies have had some work, lol. I wonder if they have ever tried driving with that spare on the jeep. Having one M-151 ought to make it track a little odd.
“Wow only 2 owners the last 72 years!
Very, very original. Used on our farm for years. The original motor rebuilt in 2004. About 3500 miles put on since. Driven monthly! I love this Jeep and we are reluctantly selling. I’ll regret it I am sure.
Runs great and is awesome looking. Not hacked up like a lot of old CJ2A’s.
Call for all the details. Been in our family for over 30 years.
If I don’t sell it it’s still available for photo shoots! Been in a few advertisements over the years.”
Supposedly, this was used in the M*A*S*H* TV series. I guess it’s possible. Interesting that the driver side indents are missing. Looks like it has a GPW crossmember.

“1953 Willy’s Wagon 4×4 With Rocket 350 In It. Also Have Snow Blade For It. Trade For Bagger Harley”
Includes a trailer. Pics aren’t very big. This is GPW #7474. It has a Willys frame. Sounds like the seller has had to explain this too many times.
https://mohave.craigslist.org/cto/d/wwii-ww2-jeep-willys-bantam/6497307846.html
“WW2 1942 rare jeep this is NOT the common ww2 jeep this is a ford script with a Willits frame THAT WAS BUILT THAT WAY! from the factory serial number is 7474 it has crank to start,bocycle pump under rear seat,brass fire extinguisher,repro 50 caliber that is amazing not one of those cheap plastic wood aluminum trash looking machine guns too much to list. Usmc ww2 trailer will be thrown in if you want it TEXT show contact info
I have received emails that ford did not use Williys frames from uneducated people! Please note it is well documented and also on page 192 of the all American wonder volume 2 book it states that there is no doubt this happened and that my jeep is AMONG THE RAREST of jeep variants! Jeeps with a serial number below 8000 (mine is 7474 ) were built using willys frames in order to get production rolling for the war effort also windshield hinges and data plates are solid brass the Willy frame was however stamped like the Ford’s with a star 7474 then a star, so please you people who think you know educate yourselves thank you.”
This has an odd bumper setup. Can’t seem much from the pics. It includes the winch, a soft top and a hardtop.
