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: Price dropped to $8000
(08/18/2012) The body and frame appear in very good shape. The price is a bit high given it doesn’t run at the moment.

(12/14/2012) I like the engine compartment shot.
“A real gem! Shows well & gets LOTS of attention! A must see! Finished in 2008 & has been in car shows in CA & OR, with 12 awards, including the 2011 “Rad Willy” award in Grass Valley, CA.
*Frame off restoration

*700R4 GM transmission
*4.11, 9″ Ford rearend
*Autometer gauges
*Oak wood bed
*BASF custom mixed paint

This looks real nice, but some of the decisions surprise me, such as not having the transmission plate cover installed.
“Vin # CJ2A63505. This Willy’s is in excellent condition and the under carriage looks as good as the rest of the Jeep. The restoration was done about 8 years ago by the previous owner who lived in California. The original engine has been replaced with a 1970’s 231 odd fire V6 Buick engine. Since the restoration it has only had about 200 miles put on it. This Willy’s has an all steel body not aluminum or fiberglass knock off.”
