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 .

Looks like it might have a little rust. Hard to tell for sure.

“A very rare and early pair of WWII Military Burma Jeeps. These were purchased by my grandfather over 40 years ago, probably off of the local Navy base auctions. One has original flat head motor, other has a different looking motor. Would be great for parts or to restore. A rare old truck!”

If you live in or are visiting the Philippines, you might consider dropping by the Sarao Jeepney Factory in Las Pinas, Philippines. Started by Leandro Sarao, the company has been building jeepneys since 1953. The factory is open to the public. There’s a short description about the place from the Trail of Asia travel blog.
Las Pinas is south of Manila. If you are north of Manila, you might check out M.D. Juan, which is in Caloocan City.
Uploaded in 2010, this disassemble/assemble of this ‘Jiffy Jeep’, unlike this competition video and this parade demonstration, shows the action from the front, giving a different view onto this unique performance.
I was out shopping in Kennewick on Thursday when I ran across this hard working wagon. The owner must have been busy in the nearby Target Store. The carrier on top of the wagon held two ladders, rope, lights, and a tube.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was listed at $700.
“42 willys WW II Jeep [No motor or transmission] body is a little rough but doesn’t seem to have much rust. It had the original flathead when I got it about 15 years ago. It has been sitting for years and a lot of the parts walked away.t”

“50 Willys Jeep. Needs some TLC. Good condition. New wire harness, 12 volt system. Has top and doors”
Joe forwarded this engine for sale on eBay. Local pickup only (Ohio).
“Up for your consideration is a Willys L-134 engine ser # MB334904 . I bought it just in case I was going to assemble a WW2 jeep. This engine has the Military Standard oil filter, Crank start nut, Lower Pulley guards, WW2 primer fuel pump. It has a Gpw script oil pump, original water pump with no holes (civilian has heater ports). It also has the WW2 jeep steel radiator hose sections. Was told the brown bakelite distributor cap is rare. It appears that the head is a Gpw as you can see a Gp under the oil filter bracket. It will turn with a wrench on the crank start nut. With the prices on these going up This would make a good place to start for your jeep. If you priced a carb, intake/exhaust manifold, Distributor and so on you will see that this will make a good buy. This could be used also for the Ford Gpw”

UPDATE: **Status Unknown**
This is listed as a 1942 Ford, but I don’t see either ‘1942’ nor ‘Ford’ anywhere. I like the rims.
“Engine went bad a few years back good running gear no rust in the tub great builder have many spare parts to go with it
Pair of front and rear axles
Transmissions and transfer cases
Windshield frame front fenders also just not in the pics”
This could restore nicely.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was Make Offer
Engine is not running.
“Here we have a very solid 1949 Willys Jeepster ( Arguably the most desirable & loved American autos ever made, only about 9,000 Jeepsters 4 x 2 were made between 1946 & 1949 ) this one with a Buick V6 transplant & two speed power Glide! Car was restored about 12 years ago. We to tooled around with our kids in her for about 6 summer but now car is not running, I believe it has a bad ground somewhere -car is dead when you turn the key. Very hard to find a Jeepster in this good a condition – but will certainly need some TLC – some minor body work & a new Vinyl a top will definitely be needed. Note: I do have a set of the original rims.
Family love affair may be over – but this is not a fire sale, but we’re throwing it out there to see if there are any interested Parties. My guess is it should sell between $3,500 & $5,500 bring your best offer”
Seller is parting this out.
“I have some parts from an old MB – some of the parts look like they belong to a CJ2a so please see the photographs for details
MB Tub #659XX (Number on the driver’s gusset – only 5 numbers so its an early one – probably 1942). I purchased a set of GPW data plates to help with the registration that can go with for the right price). It looks to have been patched at some point and will need some love.
Fenders
Grille
Hood (has a hole in it from P/O)
Windshield
Seats (not sure what they are from)
Driveshafts
Clutch pressure plate
