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 .

Nice looking wagon.
“This is a beautifully resto-modded 1963 Willys Wagon 4×4! I purchased it from a private seller in Eastern NC outside of Asheville. He owned it for approx 10 years and the restoration was completed approx 9 years ago.
The build was very thorough from start to finish. The body was removed and all rusted panels were cut out and replaced with new steel (see photo album of resto). A New Chevy 350 V8 engine was installed along with a Chevy Automatic Transmission that is mated to the original Dana 18 Transfer Case (recently rebuilt). The axles are from a Jeep Grand Wagoneer and were completely rebuilt with new bearings and seals. The axle upgrade gives this Willys Power Disc Brakes up front and a much better gear ratio for cruising than the original setup. It also has Power Steering and a Vintage Air A/C system with R134 refrigerant.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4400
It might need the transferase rebuilt.
“We are selling a 46 willy’s jeep with the original “supersonic” flat head engine. I cant say for certain that it is numbers matching but the last owner said it is. It would be a cool toy to putt around in for someone with a little free time and tinkering abilities who needs a little nostalgia in their life. I’m just cutting down on the toys so I can buy an airplane…
It has brand new carb and brand new electronic distributor. The only thing mechanically that could use some attention is the transfer case could use some bearings but it drives as is, just a little loud (remember that it is a 70 year old jeep, not a brand new Cadillac!!) It would be great off road since it is very small. We get lots of attention everywhere we go and it is very easy to take the distances you don’t want to drive it with the tow bar. This is not much money for a toy like this. Look at prices for similar ones! You wont find one in this condition with the original engine for this price. I’m selling this classic jeep for less than some people pay for a nice golf cart! !”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(10/07/2015) It’s been parked for a few years.

(05/28/2015) Seller indicates there are only dings and dents under the diamond plating.
“I have owned this jeep for 37 years and have replaced almost everything, engine, brakes, lights, seats, tires, wiring, gauges, changed to 12 volts, and added electronic ignition. I had it undercoated 37 years ago and the body has not changed. I added the plating to cover up dings and bangs it is old and original but the plating can be removed. I put it on with about 15 stainless screws per side plus used the snaps along the upper edge for the rag top. ”

This has a turbo, too.
“This is a beautiful 1947 Willys “Arctic” Jeep that is mostly complete in a conversion to a turbo aspirated 4 cylinder Kubota Diesel. The $1200 conversion kit is fully installed, the transmission has had a full $1200 rebuild by Bobby’s Transmission in Meridian, and I installed a $900 overdrive unit on the transmission. The $1200 turbo kit has only been test installed, and then I removed it to prevent damage while I was working on fitting the engine to the Jeep. The turbo fits perfectly….see picture. The original gas tank has been replaced with a new one, the radiator has had a commercial clean out, pressure test, and paint job, there is a new electric fan to replace the engine mounted fan, and much more. The only parts I have not yet purchased for the conversion and rebuild is either a full brake rebuild kit, or a disk brake conversion kit, which was what I was planning to install. You will also need to buy a set of CHT and turbo boost gauges. I have already purchased almost everything else to complete the conversion, including a new high end billet gas pedal and a Diesel “pull to stop” control.
Looks good for the price.
“Completely stock with some upgrades, partial restoration. Senior owned. Clear title. $4,000 or best offer.”
