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. This section used to be split into jeeps, parts and other categories, but recent changes to eBay will require this information to be recoded.
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 .
Great price. Will go quick.

“Hasn’t been started for 10 years. No battery. Has rust. Have extra jeep for drive line parts. Spare engine. Have a rebuilt carburetor and a disassembled winch. All for $800.”
Michael shared this MB with a trailer on the Bring-a-Trailer site.

“This 1944 Willys MB was owned by a World War II U.S. Air Force veteran for approximately 40 years before being inherited by the seller’s spouse in 2019. The truck is powered by a 134ci inline-four mated to a three-speed manual gearbox and a dual-range transfer case, and the body was refinished during the family’s ownership in green with military-style livery and features a canvas soft top, a pioneer tool kit, a jerrycan, and more. The included Willys trailer was purchased and refurbished approximately 25 years ago. This Willys Jeep and trailer are now offered by the seller with period WWII memorabilia, non-operational display machine guns and other items, a technical manual, service records from the past 40 years, and a clean Ohio title in the seller’s spouse’s name.
The seller states that the body was disassembled, refurbished, and repainted in olive drab green with reapplied insignias and livery in the 1990s. The included trailer underwent a similar refurbishment. Additional exterior features include a canvas soft top, a hinged dual-pane windshield, a fender-mounted Federal Enterprises siren, camouflage netting, blackout driving lights, and more. The seller notes that two non-operational display machine guns are included in the sale and can be mounted to the central turret….”
It’s a project.

“Project, 45 Willys MB. Another project in line. Price keeps going up the more complete it becomes. Needs Glass, Brakes, some reassembly, seats. Take over & finish your own way. Make offer.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5000.
Has indents and an inlet, but the inlet could have have been added afterwards given it is atop the diamond plate. This is not running.
“’42 willys with small block chevy 350. Been sitting about 5 years. (Non running) Was supposedly parked with a bad fuel pump. Otherwise, with a little elbow grease will be a runner driver. Twin stick transfer case, onboard air tank, 12k warn winch. axles and gears are unknown but this thing was SET UP for when it was built… I’d bet it has some crawling gears in it”
Since it is an MB, the numbers wouldn’t match anyway. There have been a few updates.

This might be a GPW rather than an MB. It appears to have the GPW crossmember, but I am not certain.

The front floors appear to have some patches. Needs a battery at the very least.
