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 .
Mike shared this video show RowdyWelder’s track-equipped flat fender tackling the snow.
Roger Martin shared this French jeep with a Gevarm mark on its underside. I haven’t seen another one of these. Given the box shows the jeep 1) in olive drab, 2) with a trailer, and 3) with armaments, I am wondering if this jeep should have those extras and be painted olive drab?

The February 1955 issue of Kaiser Willys News showcased a mail carrier who put 138,000 miles on a wagon in the Idaho/Yellowstone area.
Bill shared this rare UAZ for sale. It’s supposed to be a zero mileage vehicle. The buy-it-now price is $29,900. I don’t know if that is a good price or not.

“A true Soviet Army SUV, this particular one is very rare due to the fact that it has no mileage, it was Army conservation and later purchased by former army general who kept it in climate controlled garage until we bought it and imported into the US. All export and import duties are paid; it is now titled in IN and can be registered in any state in the US.
It’s practically like new with very few flows that I tried to show in pictures.
The 2.5-liter inline-four features a single carburetor and sends power to the rear or all four wheels through a four-speed manual transmission and a twin-stick dual-range transfer case, making it very versatile.”

“Jeep M38 for sale. Rust free, garage kept since 1960, by previous owner and myself. Has been converted to 12V, also blinkers and overdrive have been added. 4WD works great, Jeep has no issues and is great condition.”
UPDATE: Post deleted.
The VEC is rough, though seller indicates there is a second body. The GPW lacks a body. Price includes many parts.
“Inherited projects. 46 has a title. They both were running but have been sitting for 20 years. I have body for 46 in garage. Lots and LOTS of parts including 2 additional engines, axels, rear ends, wheels, radiators… literally half a garage full of stuff that i believe goes to one or the other. Price is for everything but you must pick up.”

New speedometer was installed with new motor with around 300 miles. Vacuum driven wipers converted to electric. 12-volt wiring. Body is very straight. original patina paint.

This was my dream retirement project but won’t have time to finish.”
Listed as a 1942 MB, it seems to actually be a CJ-2A (most likely a ’46).

“Great project. Everything is there.”
Roger shared this Youtube video by RowdyWelder who shares how he rebuilt the badly damaged front frames rails on this old jeep.
One of the tools I acquired a few months ago to work on my cage was a metal chop saw. After doing some research, I settled on the Evolution chop saw, as it had a bunch of good reviews. I found the best price through the manufacturer site itself: Currently it is priced at $379.99
A couple days ago I finally had time to pull it out of its box and give it a test on a piece of angle iron. Holy Smokes! It cut right through the mild steel angle iron, faster than I expected. I don’t know how long the blade will last, but this tool will sure come in handy! It sure beats a hacksaw!!!
I should note that I am just reporting on my experience. I have no association with Evolution nor do I receive anything for promoting this product.
Tom spotted this jeep. This could be a good price.

Looks in great shape, though too bad the driver’s side (which is on the right) has had the body cut. Note that this is a right hand drive jeep with an automatic transmission (probably Borg Warner).
