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 $1500

Rear seat not included.
“I have a 1945 ww2 jeep for sale. Yes.. This one IS a willys mb not the CJ2As that are painted green and mistaken for military.
I went through the trouble of getting a bonded title. All that is needed to get plates is insurance.
The motor runs, and I repacked the wheel bearings and replaced the brake shoes and shocks. I also installed a master cylinder and replaced all four wheel cylinders. The brakes could use some adjusting. It does have some rust through on the floor and sides. The transmission should probably be rebuilt. The gears grind a bit going in. There is no original gas tank so I’ve been using a boat tank. The rear seat shown in the pictures is not included. It is something I welded up with rebar, its not willys manufacture and is going on another project. This jeep would be perfect as the base for a restoration or it could be used as is on a dear lease. However I’d rather see it fixed up than left to rust on some land.
Call for more information.
Thanks for looking

I like the license plate: “R OLD42”
“231 Buick V-6 engine. T-91 transmission, upgraded transfer case and axles. Runs great.”
http://reno.craigslist.org/cto/3770747786.html
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1650.
“Runs pretty good, carb runs rich sometimes but not always. Needs the clutch worked on, it’s has no more adjustment left. Drives good and 4 wheel works. Modified for hunting or ranch work not to restore, there’s been a lot of work done to build it as a hunting rig so the purist wouldn’t want it. It has a Hurricane F-161 from a willys wagon put into it so it has lots of torque. The brakes work great, the lights work, it just needs seat pads and the clutch fixed to start using it. There are no major rust issues other than a couple of spots in the floor under the seats. Not a structure issue. The gas tank is rusted out so I use a gas can with a hose in it. Small tanks are available, the stock style replacements cost too much. It comes with a bill of sale only, DMV can’t find it in the system. More on Craigslist”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4500.
This is listed as a ’52, but looks like a MB/GPW body and running gear.
“Military Jeep. Runs good, an excellent restoration project.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was an Auction.
This was Mike Yeck’s collection, who I understand passed away last year.
MBs, GPWs, M-38, M-38A1, M-170 and much more: Here are just some of the images. Many parts and other items for sale, too.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was priced at $1400.
This includes an overdrive. The tool indents have been filled.
“willys mb, has buick v6 warn overdrive, crossover steering bucket seats, complete been sitting (i got a deuce) might trade for something like an argo . 6×6 8×8 or a trackster project”
UPDATE: **SOLD**
“This a Willys Slat Grille MB is in need of a full restoration but is a great start and retains much of its originality. The OD paint is still under the other layers of paint.
The DOD is 2 Feb. 1942 and the USA number is 204748?, the body number is 20033 and it has the square deep well with the script Willys on the rear panel.
It has had government upgrades such as the rear panel reinforcement and trailer socket added. The engine needs to be rebuilt but is an MB replacement engine with a blank pad. It has a casting date of 12.30 and is probably a 1944 block.
Both front seats are the original early split pattern and the driver’s seat pan has been modified for the later wide mouth style fuel tank and filler neck.
It also comes with the original early style rear seat.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3400.
(01/28/2013) This appears to have a mix of parts.

(11/24/2012) If there is really a closet full of parts, this may be worth a look.
“I just don’t have the time to finish it up. The chassis have been rebuilt from the ground up. Axles, Brakes, Steering, Tranny, Engine. I have two tubs that I was going to use to make one but just don’t have the time. It is set up for 12 volt and I have all new gauges, and a new wiring harness. I have two extra fenders. It has a T90 tranny in it and I also have a T84 Tranny that is ready to re-assemble. I have all the parts plus a large closet of more original Jeep parts. Way too many to list. I even have the paint for it. It just need some work on the tub and reassembled.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4900
The top is rare with the little windows along the top. It looks nice.

(02/06/2013) Bo is selling his 1944 MB Project
“I have for sale an early 1944 MB 340503 for sale. I’ve cleaned (to bare metal), primed and painted most of the external surfaces. A lot of body work was done, too, although I left all of the dents in place. In time, the hat channels will need to be replaced.
Here is a link to my blog that covers in better detail what was done and how it currently looks.
Post war engine (not running, but will turn over), T84 transmission, Dana 18 transfer case (both shift, but will probably need rebuilt), and the jeep rolls.
Right now I’m asking $4000 or best reasonable offer. No title, just a bill of sale. Located in Summerville, SC.
Its a good start for somebody else to restore! If you could post it on your site, I would be grateful. If it sells, I will totally donate to keep this place up and running!! By the way, your efforts have been extraordinary the past week. I think it looks great! DoD was 6-8-1944
http://rustbucketresto2.blogspot.com ”
UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was $650.
Joe spotted this jeep. I believe the price dropped from $1100 to $650, despite what the text says in the ad. Also, this might have an overdrive or the seller is confusing that with the transfercase. This could be a MB or GPW instead of a 1950 flattie.
“Complete but needs work. I was going to build it into a crawler but I found another that is a better fit for my growing family. I will sell it for $600 without the motor/trans/overdrive unit. If you want the motor/trans/overdrive I would take $1100. It has a chevy V8 and it has a warn overdrive unit. It dose not run. Previous owner said engine needs work.”
Doug spotted this solid looking restorable MB/GPW. It appears to have combat rims, too. It is listed as a 1946 Military Jeep.
