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 $300. It’s got some oddities (see comments).
This is a project.
“1945 willys jeep mb. Has a Studabaker flat head 6 cyclinder. Engine runs but needs a new tranny or the tranny rebuilt. It’s a project build asking 3000.00 or best offer.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $15,500.
(12/14/2013) It looks the body has been nicely adapted to the CJ-7 chassis.
“1943 willys built by ford cj7 chassis 350/350 ps,36″ tires incl spare,winch runs great trade for street rod or? ”
UPDATE: **SOLD* Was listed at $9500.
“1944 Antique Willis MB Jeep. Good Condition”
UPDATE:Was on eBay. **SOLD**
(12/29/2013) This no glovebox slat grille has potential.
“This Jeep is being sold as a parts jeep or a solid restoration candidate.
It is a early Willys Slat Grill jeep.
Original data plates
Serial Number 103390 on data plate
Date of is 12-11-41
Frame tag is painted over but I suggest it matches the data plate
Engine number is MB113681
I hate to see this parted out because it would make an EXCELLENT frame off restoration project.
The frame is solid, the fenders and hood are good also.
The “Willys Script “tub needs new sheet metal in many areas but is actually very straight. Previous owner cut out most of all the bad areas already.
The windshield is good but is a victim over alot of overspray, which probably saved it.
T 84 Transmission is also early type, filler on pass side. I can not verify if it is ford or willys.
Comes with four combat rims
Located in Santa Rosa, Calif
Serious bidders please consider coming to see it in person.
Buyer is responsible for all shipping arrangements.
Sold as is where is.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1900
(01/20/2014) This includes a new tub. Looks like it could be a good price for everything.
“I have a jeep project. I have a titled 1943 Willys MB (WWII jeep — VERY hard to find!), currently not running (was running when parked about 5 years ago), with all correct drivetrain EXCEPT for the engine (it has a later model F head, rather than the original L head). It does have the correct T-84 transmission and all the other correct moving parts. The body is rough and needs work — BUT, I have all the replacements parts in another tub, so between the two of them you could put together a nice WWII jeep. I even have a civilian L-head engine (will need to be rebuilt) so, though you wouldn’t have the exact correct engine — you would be close. I don’t have the seats or many other of the correct bits (like the combat wheels — sorry). I only want $1900 for all. You could pull the F-head and sell it to recoup some of the money. It is located in Albuquerque NM and would need to be transported wherever you are.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
There may be value here.
“I am selling a 1944 Willys Jeep. The body and frame are both in great condition. Features include flip down headlight brackets, tool box lids and glove box. The engine and transmission have been removed and are not available with the vehicle. The tires and wheels are in working condition so the vehicle can be flat towed or easily put on a trailer. The vehicle’s location is in Apple Valley, CA. I am asking $1,500 obo.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $15,000.
(09/26/2013) Looks good. At that price I’d expect to see some combat rims on it, too.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $22,000.
What’s the fourth tag on the dash?

The period correct communication radio is mounted in the rear. Start right up and runs great. No rust. Has a clear title. Great for military jeep collectors and parade ready.”

Current PA title.
Partially restored Willys MB, parts included to complete restoration.
This has a replacement body installed, Vintage Wiring of Maine wiring harness installed. New tires on CJ-2A rims. Original 6 volt system, newer battery. This has been sitting for a few years without much work done to it. It is currently not running, but has been on the road before. I am not going to be able to finish it the way it needs to be done. My loss is your gain, it is worth much more than I am selling it for.

“I have a 1944 Willys MB for sale. I bought this to restore and it has turned out to be more than I would like to take on. The body and frame seem to be original but the motor looks to be out of a CJ3A. The engine runs smooth but will blow some blue smoke after running for several minutes.
I currently have the body detached. I do have the title.
All in all, it is a good jeep for someone looking for a restoration project or parts. Please email with questions.
Asking $2000 but is negotiable.
Buyer will be responsible for picking up.”
