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 .

“This 1950 Willys Jeepster Restomod is a very unique and beautiful ride. It has many modern improvements to make it more streetable and fun to drive in today’s traffic. It has over Double the Horsepower of the original engine with an Automatic Transmission, a modern Steering box, a Tilt Steering Wheel with Turn signals front and rear, and Four way Flashers. The steering is very smooth and easy; There is absolutely no need for power steering. It has been completely rewired 12 volt with a modern fuse block, headlight relays, a twelve volt headlight switch with a 12 volt instrument regulator and a 12 to 6 volt diode to run the original fuel gauge. A new set of Sunpro gauges have been installed in the dash to take care of monitoring the oil pressure, water temp, and voltage. Here is a list of what has been done to the car:

New Header style Chrome side pipes with new aluminized hook up pipes and new flanges from manifolds. The Oddfire Engine has a great sound thru them
Convertible top is not new, but in decent shape It will need two outer catches that go on the top. the center catch works well and I had it transported that way with no problems; Just forgot to order the latches. They are about 40 dollars a piece brand new
Jeepster also has a red boot in nice condition, and a white roadster style full cover with a zip out center so driver can drive with the top down and stay warm with the heater going; Plus it just looks cool!
New cowl to hood rubber weather-strip and new windshield to vent window rubber weather-strip

Spare tire has the rare Hard Cover also done in Viper Red Basecoat / Clearcoat

“The jeep was brought home on a trailer completely taken apart / frame off was completed. Began project around 2001. I cut out all rotted k bracing and sheet metal in the floor, replaced it with new material and mig welded into place. Spot welds reflecting areas of repairs. Jeep has always been in a garage or under a shed out of the weather since I completed it around 2003.Where good salvage parts were available I used these when replacing other older or worn parts. What is M38 tubb, frame, running gears, right fender, hood and grill, m50 antenna mount. Deep water fording kit is nos. I purchased it in the original crate. Top bows are aftermarket and maybe the rear tire mounting bracket. Most of the other parts are good salvage replacement or nos where and when I could find them. At time of original rebuild all brake lines were replaced and master cylinder was honed and rebuilt. I made a home made wiring harness as I was not sure if I would make it a 24 volt system or not and wanted to get it rolling. All fuel lines were replaced as well. It was undercoated with a coating called tool dip which is a black mastic type of undercoating and is military surplus. Fuel tank has been permanently sealed in military aircraft fuel tank sealer, also a mil surplus item. All seals were replaced and where needed suspension parts were replaced with new when original rebuild. Seat cushions were purchased new from Beachwood canvas, includes 3 lowers and the upper rear. Front uppers are original spring type for that original fell and sound. Front canvas seat covers sewn by my grandmother. No covers for rear. Windshield frame and left fender are cj3b. I began installing the rifle rack mounting but it needs to be completed. The brake shoes and brake cylinders replaced only a couple years ago and the drums turned. The brakes will stop stand and hold vehicle in place. Comes equipped with Slectro brand locking front lock in lock out hubs Engine was pulled from a 1952 cj3b. I cannot remember mileage. It is a non smoker. I purchased the jeep locally. Before pulling engine from jeep I removed oil pan and cleaned sludge from oil pan installed new gasket and replaced. Had to remove thermostat as old one was sticking. The engine has operated great since and has never let me down. It has received regular oil changes The most Recent new parts include new NAPA Battery and sporting a new paint job Army Jeep Parts WW 2 semi gloss Korean era Inoperative are wipers , horn wired but not working, fuel gauge wire not reading right, speedometer in tact but no speedometer cable. No Turn signals or wire for them but have military turn signal switch mounted on steering column …..”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4750.
This looks like a nice Jeep. Apparently, it was formerly owned by a fire department.
“
In the pictures of the Willys, the paint has those spots on it because we had taken it out of the garage for pictures & we had a light shower that left spots in the dust from sitting inside… This is my own personal Willys (JEEP), it has a 4 cylinder OHV motor, three speed trans., its a 4X4 (four wheel drive), it has always been stored inside when not in use… It has 4 new tires, rebuilt motor, newer top, ran when put away, but has been stored for over 2 years in my garage because I can no longer drive a vehicle with a clutch (see the last picture for the reason I cant drive it anymore)… I have a new 6 volt battery that goes with it, as the one in the Jeep will no longer take a charge from sitting… The Jeep is in very nice shape, its been used, so there are some nicks, dings, scrapes, normal signs of use on the Exterior (nothing too ugly, see pictures), the Interior is in very nice condition for a 55 year old Utility Vehicle… It has been painted a Dark Blue & I am not sure if that was a Factory Color, but it looks okay & covered pretty well, the seats look like they have been recovered & are in good condition… There is very little rust, no holes that we can see, underside looks like it was undercoated MANY years ago… Due to the fact its been sitting for over two (2) years, and I cant do any work to it, like change the battery, drain the old gas & oil, Im leaving that up to the Buyer to do… It has approx. 37,000? miles on the Odometer, much less on the rebuild of the motor… This Willys was previously owned by the Chicago Fire department, and was well maintained… As the Jeep is 55 years old, there is no warranty, and its being sold in as-is condition… Ask Questions, send your Phone Number & I will call you ASAP!!! Thanks for Looking at my Willys…
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was eBay.
The seller is in Utah, but the Jeep is in Idaho. This looks good.
“1954 Willys Jeep CJ-3B. This is a clean, good running, original Willys Jeep. It has the original “Go Devil” engine which has been rebuilt. It runs and drives well and has been used very little over the past 20 years. It has excellent tires, the four wheel drive works as it should, and it is rust free. The jeep is stored in a heated garage and it has a clear title. It even has the original owner’s manual. I have super-sized the photos for clear viewing. Please look the photos over closely. This is a clean, original, 1954 Willy Jeep that could take you on a camping or hunting trip tomorrow. The shovel, tow bar, Jerry can for extra gas, Spare tire, etc. come with the Jeep. The Jeep is located in Blackfoot, Idaho. I will work with you regarding shipping.”
