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 .
Unclear why it is listed as a 1944.

The body has a solid rear like an MB/GPW, but also has the proper hole for a CJ-2A ignition switch. Better pics would help in identifying exactly what is here.

“This is a project and is priced at half of what I have invested.
I have to abandon the project due to a pending move. All the drivetrain has been professionally rebuilt and upgraded. T90, Dana 18 X case, overdrive, both axles. Frame is straight and free from cracks. Has been set up for a Kubota 2.2 turbo diesel. Upgraded brakes, upgraded steering, new tires. Nothing is missing. I was on the home stretch with this and doing final assembly.
I have the manual for the conversion and hardware bagged and tagged. Also have manual for the Kubota diesel.
I’m not willing to part out- yet- but we’ll see once the move date gets closer. Clean title.”
