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 .

“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!”

http://losangeles.craigslist.org/wst/cto/4203758849.html
UPDATE: Still Available. The body is newer than a ’41 and appears to have been modified a little at the tool indents. Also note the driver’s side wheel. It appears to be pushed back a little farther than normal. Thanks to Colin and Richard for spotting these issues.
This could be a slat grille. It has an early gas tank.

I don’t see full floaters in the rear, so I suspect there are a variety of parts that aren’t original.

(10/02/2013) This appears to be a mix of 2A and MB parts.
“1946 Willy’s Jeep CJ-2A …Best Willy’s Body on the Planet.
Always Stored Inside and driven very little.
The owner of Elitch Gardens in Denver owned since new

Very Rare to find it with both combinations. Best of Both Worlds.
UPDATE: **SOLD**
(10/21/2013) Joe spotted this MB. It has potential.
“This jeep is pretty much stock. It has an AZ title and current plates. It has been in the family from the original sale date… There is a stamp on the transmission that says 1943, from what I understand this could actually be a 1943 that was titled for sale in 1946, but I am not sure on that… Some of the things that have been repaired include: Clutch, pressure plate and throwout bearing.. New brakes and lines. New fuel lines and a new gas tank.. New 6 volt battery. The jeep runs good. It starts right and the engine is strong. It comes with a chrome roll bar and a Willys MB Maintenance Manual 1942 which covers this Jeep. We have a number of receipts from parts and work done over the years… plus some extra parts.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8900
(10/08/2010) This looks like a nice build.

Listed as a 1952, this is definitely a MB or GPW.
