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 .
Might be a good price.

(09/07/2017) A project.
“I have a 1948 jeep I planned to restore but my priorities have changed. This is a simple vehicle to operate and work on, parts are readily available. No electronics whatsoever.Four Wheel drive,carburetor, mechanical fuel pump, etc. When a solar eruption or N. Korea causes our all electronic life style’s to cease this would be the vehicle to get you there. It needs a battery, alternator and possibly a starter. I am including some new parts with it such as a replacement drriver’s seat, a $300.00 wiring harness, Turn signals all 12Volt. Surprisingly little rust.”

UPDATE: Price dropped to $1200.

What a day yesterday! I woke up to learn that my deilers.com site (which also hosts the Alaska Or Rust site) had been hacked. If you viewed the site on a phone, you’d get a nice photo of an undressed young lady. As you can imagine, that’s a problem.
After some research, I learned that some from Turkey (probably that was spoofed IP) has uploaded zipped files, added some .htaccess files, and changed some the website files. While attempting to douse that fire (which I’ve fixed about 25% of the way), I was also packing for a short trip to Seattle. My father has surgery on his leg to improve its circulation.
Meanwhile, my mom is still on her walker from her knee surgery, due to newly pulled groin and other issues. To see the following each other, both pushing walkers, is a bit humbling!
So, I’m a little behind today. Sunday I *should* be back to normal.
Looks like a solid rig.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5000. This might have a Blue Star half-top.
It appears the sides of these have been cut down. Looks like a fun little jeep.

Ted shared this nice looking Commando.
“This Kaiser Jeepster Commando Truck (Half Cab) is pure joy. I can’t tell you how much fun this little truck can be. I drove a 69 Jeepster when I was in high school, and when this 1971 project presented itself, I couldn’t resist. I bought this Jeepster from a guy who had it parked in a airplane hanger around Colorado Springs. Because I was very familiar with the original Jeepster’s I took great pains to find original parts and did my best to make it as pure of a Kaiser Jeepster as possible. I even bought a Half Cab that had been crushed to obtain the orignal black moulding pieces (that are impossible to find!). The white truck bed cover is an original Whitco Jeepster top that I was lucky to find new in the box. This Jeepster has a Dauntless V6 motor with a three speed transmission. The 4 Wheel Drive works very well.
I’ve driven it back and forth from Colorado to Wichita KS several times. I have an excellent mechanic in Estes Park as well as another in Wichita. These guys have loved working on it. I have had everything reviewed, and this car is in as good of shape as one could expect from a 1971 Jeepster. The Half Cab’s really turn an eye. It seems to me that many people have seen the Station Wagon’s and the Convertible’s but have seldom seen the Truck.”

UPDATE: Price dropped to $7500.
Brandy asked me to list this jeep for her. You can contact her at brandyleighgale@hotmail.com or 206-653-5190.
She wrote, “The jeep was rebuilt in the late 90’s by my dad from the bottom up. The body is rust free. The engine is original with around 90,000 miles and is a straight 6 cylinder. This jeep is very clean inside and runs awesome. No problems with it at all. I put a new stereo system in it with four speakers. I am asking for $8500. This vehicle is located in: Seattle, WA.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $14,500.

“1953 Willy’s wagon 4×4, flathead 6cly engine runs good. 4×4 works, needs brake work. Very solid good restoration project”
https://centralmich.craigslist.org/cto/d/1953-willys-jeepster-wagon/6362609225.html
Craig spotted this thing. It is listed as a 1948 jeep, but I doubt there is anything ’48 on it.
“Jeep snowplow truck…well sort of….
Jeep truck cab sitting on a military dump truck frame and military 6×6 wheels. Powered by 455 Olds engine and TH400 trans. Payloader and hi-low counter weights with a forklift mast to raise the 9.5 or 10′ county snow plow. Runs and drives but Dad is 85 years old now and does not need to be climbing in and out of this thing that he built anymore.’
https://nmi.craigslist.org/cto/d/jeep-plow-truck/6362612631.html
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
Having the box makes this one unique. But, it appears the bumper has been broken.
“Made by Comet for retirement gift for WILLYS OVERLAND EXECUTIVES. This toy is in excellent condition, tires show very little play wear. Hard to find with steering wheel intact. JEEP embossed in tailgate is crisp and clear. “Gold plating” is in great shape with some tarnish that I will leave to the buyer to clean. Only blemish is right front bumper is typically broken. Box is in equally excellent condition. Both have been kept under glass as long as I’ve owned it.”
This is a unique vehicle.
“1953 Willys Overland. Factory prototype. F head six cylinder. Right hand drive. This is the only one.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $400.
Bill spotted this one.
“THIS IS A COMPLETE ENGINE FROM FAN TO BELL HOUSING – MISSING STARTER, CARB AND DISTRIBUTOR COVER. COMES WITH STAND.”
This photo from the October 1954 issue of Kaiser Willys News got me thinking. Anyone know when the first jeep trenchers were manufactured?
