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: **Status Unknown** Was $8500.
Here’s another jeep worth a look.
“WW2 jeep runs good, stops good. Price firm. Has pedistal mount for.30. Florida title.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $20000
Looks parade ready.
“This is a prime example of a WWII army jeep – a 1943 Willys MB that has been FULLY RESTORED. NO EXPENSE has been spared in restoring this wonderful piece of WWII history. I have owned this Jeep for three years and have over 15K in restoration. I also repainted it the CORRECT Gillespie Coatings AJP paint, which is correct for all MB/GPWs prior to late 1944.
All original but it does have a Bessinger replacement body. Engine, drive train, all restored and rebuilt. It has 5 combat wheels, new Firestone military NDT tires, grease gun, fire extinguisher, first aid kit, windshield-mounted rifle rack, new canvas coverings for the seats and new canvas top, etc…I also converted it to a 12 volt system for safety, but modified an old 6 volt voltage regulator box to cover the 12 volt solenoid. Only someone with a trained eye could spot the upgrade. It has the original oil bath air cleaner, correct fuel/water separator and oil filter.
Interior–all gauges work, floor push starter, blackout light switch, handbrake, brass fire extinguisher, combat steering wheel, & kidney pad. It also has the grease gun, mounting bracket, and maintenance record mounted under the hood. It has the original tire pump under the back seat, too.
I also have SEVERAL WWII musette bag, wooden ammo boxes, a WWII field phone, two original WWII M1 helmets, and a wood/metal REPLICA .30 Thompson sub machine gun. Anyone who is interested in WWII reenacting, parades, etc., will have EVERYTHING they need to jump right in. Oh, I also have a 101st Airborne XL WWII Jump Uniform (replica).”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $15,000
Looks good.

“1942 Willys Jeep, 350 small block chevy engine, 4 speed manual with twin stick t case, 4″ lift 1″ body lift, 33″ tires with good tread, No top or doors, this runs excellent, shifts well, goes down the road like a 1942 Jeep would 😉 I bought this to tinker with over winter and fell into another project I’ve had my heart set on for months and finally got the guy to sell it to me so, sadly this has to go, and fairly quickly as I’m out of space and don’t want to have to store it. I have fixed a couple oil leaks, the carb is fully rebuilt, it still needs some odds and ends but this is a great novice project,as it’s easy to work on! Come see, make and offer and drive this away!”
