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: Still Available
(07/27/2014) Seller has other jeeps for sale also. This needs work, but appears to be a good price.
“This is a nice start to a Jeep project. All metal body with upgraded suspension and steering. Original 4 cylinder motor and 3 speed dual stick transfer case. I acquired this jeep with a bunch of other projects so I don’t know much more than the pictures show. Looks like it needs wiring completed and winshield intalled. (I have the glass and seal) Pretty solid project for an old ’46 CJ2a. I have other Jeeps for sale as well.”

“I have a 1952 Willys Overland M-38 project jeep for sale. This is a great example of the last flat fender military jeep. Completely rebuilt engine has less than 10 miles on it. The jeep is very restorable, and is in good shape for being 60+ years old. Has been converted to 12V, and wears a hood from a CJ2A. Body has some patches, and jeep has been painted red. Comes with a older hard top (not military). This is a project, but is all there, and I have almost $2k in the engine alone. If interested I can send pictures, or better yet, contact me to come see it. I do have at least 6 original wheels, 4 other tires and new tubes to go along with it. Roll bar is just resting in place. I will consider trades that take up less space. Possibly an ATV, Enduro motorcycle, enclosed trailer, try me..”
According to this Canadian website, an M-38 restored by Kevin and Sharon Martin ‘wowed’ the crowd at North Bay’s Summer in the Park car show.

Bob took some photos of this beautiful GP the weekend.
“Saw this nice ford gp at the ragersville, Ohio car and power show today. Guy has owned it for 30 years. It came out of Colorado. Still has the right engine and drivetrain. Nicely restored by the owner.”
This 1990 Dr. Pepper can features a Jeep Wrangler giveaway. I know’s it not super vintage, but I thought it was interesting.

Nothing like a wench-equipped jeep.

There can’t be too many CJ-6 fiberglass bodies out there.
“Dauntless V-6 engine\T86 three speed trans\DANA18 transfer case\Dana 27 front diff| DANA 44 rear diff. Lift springs included. Fiberglass tub and fenders. Steel hood and grille.

Needs fuel tank, blinker handle and I’m sure some other misc parts. Has Florida Title. Has never seen snow. No tires or rims. I can load on your trailer for you, or I can deliver but we would have to talk about that. No trades”
No title project here.
“I recently had some vehicles from Arizona hauled back to the east coast and this little Willys Jeep is one of them. Its about 90-95% free of rust. The engine turns free and all pieces are here, I was told it was last started about a year ago. This is a great start for someone interested in one of these Jeeps. The original paint was black and you can literally wipe off the light blue and red paint underneath it down to the original black paint with a rag soaked in mineral spirits. Email me with questions.. first 3000 or best offer CASH takes it. I don’t have a title and this is reflected in my price, its not hard to get one for these vehicles as many of them didn’t have titles etc. Your local DMV can help you.. I have the paperwork and procedure for NY state as I went to the DMV here and they explained what I needed to do.”

Runs, but needs work to drive.
“1946 Willys Jeep, CJ2A, all original except for 6 cyl. flathead motor. New tires, 2 spare wheels, canvas top, back-seat, jerrycan, repair manuals. Running, needs brake fluid leak repaired & wiring done correctly to be driveable”
Listed as a 1941 MB, this seems to be a mix of parts. I don’t see any rear hubs.The body’s been ‘fixed’. No motor.
“1941 Willys Jeep. Very early production “Willys” stamped MB. Probably not suited for restoration, but would make neat driver and four-wheeler. Had small block Chevy V-8, (now missing), and still has mounts, transmission adapter, radiator, dual exhaust, bellhousing, and more, all mounted in place. Would accept Chev V-6 as well. Also has T-90 transmission, 11 inch brakes, late model steering, and 12 volt electrics. Drivers windshield cracked. This is a non-running project perfect for someone who can get hold of a small block Chevy engine. $1950.”

Need cleaning, but may be a good price.

UPDATE II: **SOLD**
“I have 3 Ford GPW tubs or bodies from World War 2. Plan on being at the Military show and swap meet in Effingham on Aug. 22-23.

Let me know. Thanks”
UPDATE (06/19/2014) : Justin notes this seller has all kinds of MB & GPW parts. “I bought a GPW grill yesterday from this guy named Sam. He has any MB, GPW or civilian part you would need and he has multiples of each. From rolling frames, any F script marked parts, engines, trannys, anything you are looking for he has for sale. He is not “giving away” anything, but is very reasonably priced. He has quite a stockpile of great parts!”
Original Post (06/12/2014): Lots of stuff here. The jeep looks like it could use some work.
“I plan on attending the Military Swap Meet in late August there in Effingham. Will be bringing fenders, grills, axles, small parts, etc. Is there any interest in these large hard to load items?? Tubs, frames, axles, etc. ??? ALL WW2 Military Jeep original parts.”
