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: **SOLD** Was $8500.
Looks like a pretty easy project to complete.
“Up for your consideration is a 1942 Ford Gpw jeep project. It will be sold AS-IS. It is a project vehicle with a very solid body. It is considered a “Script Jeep”. A lot of the parts to finish it are included with it. Do not know the condition of the running gear. Would be an awesome project. $8500 firm.”
It lacks full floaters. The body looks good.
“Here is a chance to own a piece of History. Its a 1942 Military Jeep In great shape that need to be, sanded and painted and restored. Most parts are there and needs to be put back in place. (parts are easy to obtain) Motor is a original willys flat head 4 cylinder, which is not locked up and the carburator has been taped up for a long time so no debris could enter. The body is a old reproduction and there is only little surface rust, no holes and only needs to be sanded and painted. The body alone is worth $5,000.00 to replace it. The drive trane is there and installed. I have no idea of it’s condiction, but parts are easy to acquire if needed. Pictures do not do it justice. It would be a great project for a beginner or somebody that has always wanted a military jeep to drive around or to have on a farm to play with. Please contact me if you are interested.”

I don’t know if the price includes the trailer or if the trailer is extra.
“1943 Ford gpw Army Jeep with option for Bantam trailer. It has a Buick 225 V6 with Warren Overdrive and rear posi with front power lock differentials. Full cage roll bar gas and Tire rack on rear.
It needs new tires and hasn’t been started for over 5 years but it is not froze up. I poured oil in the carburetor before storing it. So it will need an oil change and a new battery and a little love but all in all it’s a very nice Ford gpw army jeep M1 gun mount on windshield set up for the Rubicon. For more information contact me.
I’m sorry I don’t have better pictures.The Jeep is not at my home but it is in Fremont.”
This was reconditioned by the Moore Company. There were 2,443 jeeps done by them. It has since gone through other alterations.
