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 .
I”ve never documented one of these.

“1941 Ford GP # 9223. The 1941 Ford GP, as well as the Bantam BRC and Willy’s MA were pre-WW2 limited production models, often labeled as “prototypes” which developed into the common WW2 GPW and MB. The production of the Ford GP, which is very unique to itself, was approximately 4500 units with most going overseas. It is estimated that only a few hundred of the GP’s exist today, most of which are in the hands of collectors. Of the total, it is estimated that less than 100 are restored, with the vast majority of the balance being as non-restorable and in dire condition.
It’s listed as a 1948 CJ-3A.

“1957 cj6 willys jeep
Very rare to the northeast, this is the longer wheelbase version of the cj6, similar to the cj8 scramblers.
12v system
I believe it is a Buick v6 that came in it from the factory with a 3 stick 3speed manual.
I had it running 2 years ago when I bought it, wouldn’t take much time to clean carb and put some new fuel in. Floor has been patched, bodys in ok shape. Frame has one spot that needs attention. Have the soft top frame and soft doors for it, no canvas. Has old mechanical plow pump and controls, think my blade off another jeep would fit for a little more money if interested. Kept under cover since I’ve owned it. Hate to see it go but I’ve got too many projects and no time. Good to restore or use at camp. No title but will give bill of sale
$2500 obo
Trades considered, try me. 4 wheelers, tools, tractors doa, engines, transmissions, guns, etc”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $4750.

UPDATE: Someone pointed me in the direction of this Walter Baumhofer CJ-3B calendar image (I can’t remember who, but please take credit in the comments).
There’ s no name associated with this one. At 16″ x 12″, it’s a little smaller than Emmett Watson’s “Jeepers” print. You can see more of Walter’s work over at the CJ-3B page.
Original Post (11/19/2018): Robin recently purchased this Walter M. Baumhofer illustration at an auction. It’s titled “Self Appreciation”. According to intelligentcollector.com, Walter was one of the most prolific Adventure Pulp artists out there. Among other prolific pulp adventure artists mention in the article is Emmett Watson.
Funny how both Emmett’s illustration Jeepers and Walter’s image has two men, a jeep, a tent, a red blanket, and three bears. I find that a big coincidence.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
This is a nice one. With shipping, this is under $10. It’s 11″x 8.5″.
“Today I offer for an RJ’s of VARINA EASTERN TIME, BUY IT NOW OR FOREVER HOLD YOUR PEACE SALE is a LARGE, 8.5″ x 11″, VINTAGE 1951 WILLYS STATION WAGON DEALER POSTCARD, RYSON MOTORS of DOVER, NEW JERSEY”
