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: **No Longer For Sale**
“Hello I have a 1941 willys slat grill jeep I bought recently. Was going to restore but found something I wanted more to work on. No data tags but body number appears to be 3571. The motor is civilian with slat grille head. Motor turns was told ran just not well going to try and remedy that. I paid 6000 for it would like to get that back”
This looks like a very original, unmolested Willys, may be a good deal, even at 6K.
If i didnt just buy a real nice mb i would be all over this one.
Needs more pics to determine originality. Right off, the steering wheel, speedo and rims are incorrect. Still has front bumper gussetts, grill looks good and has the early ‘square’ gas tank sump.
I contacted the guy to find out some more details. It has a CJ engine block but WWII head, and he claims it runs but has never driven it.
This looks like a scam to me.
The time is not right for me, but I’d like to have a slat grille someday
“posting deleted by author”, possibly sold again! This may be legit, may have been more work needed than previously thought.
The guy who bought it posted on G503 and said the body was in poor condition, much worse than he thought.
I tried to contact the seller but could not connect. Looking at the photos on G503, glad I missed it.
I bought the slat not for the original selling price. I did yes have buyers remorse and listed it for sale agian. But have decided to restore it as the original seller has found the original data tags wheels and other tidbits in talking to him. Body is rough but is very worth saving. Original dod is 28 nov 1941 and serial is 101173
Thanks for the update Dan. You wouldn’t be the first person to purchase a jeep and then realize it wasn’t quite what you thought it was. I think that’s how many folks learn 🙂
