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 .
This is still a good price with no bids so far.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
Here’s a cool mug.
“What a very cool piece of Jeep history. This mug is made by Buntingware. Super Jeep. Toughest 4-letter word on wheels. Mug is in nice condition. Looks new and unused”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
The starting bid is only $3500. This appears in good shape to me (but I know little about these).
“These Include: I added Round Metal Mirrors, Relocated tail light and license plate mount, Made Backing plate for Rear trunk lid, Fashioned / Made the wooden floor boards “Duck Boards”, Fashioned Screw Type windshield fold-down pin handles, Added Door seals and Windshield to Dash seal, Painted the steering wheel and All Shiny bolts that were showing, Installed new NAPA ignition switch, Installed new NAPA Horn button, Installed a new Coil, Changed the distributor (old one was electronic and troublesome) Fuel Filter, Air Filter, Oil and Filter, Changed gear oil, Added the front tow rope, Added Shovel, Made Headlight Covers, Added the graphics and Markings of Rommel’s 21’st PANZER DIVISION / DAK or Deutsch Afrika Korps WWII with Palm Tree but Deleted the Swastika for obvious reasons.
* Graphics / Markings are either vinyl self stick OR Spray painted stencils. Either way, Graphics are easily removable with Acetone if desired *
I had the Engine removed and Transmission / Engine seals replaced by a professional Antique VW repair facility because I saw gear oil on the floor of the barn. Some say old VW’s mark their territory by leaking oil but this one does not.
KUBELWAGEN has a 1974 – 1600CC / 58HP Engine < #AE 946851 > that purrrrrs and a 1965 Beetle Chassis < Vin#145304936 >
It is Titled in NJ as a 1965 VW KUB CON (meaning Kubelwagen Convertible). It was titled by me on June 7th this year. I have driven it about 300 Miles to shows and around town. It WILL go 70 MPH but I drive it at 45-50 MAX and laugh as people drive around me.
The Mileage shown on the Working ODOMETER is from a Donor Car and is 52,748 – This is NOT actual but is the number used for title purposes. The Actual mileage this car has traveled in it’s current configuration since being built is estimated at 400. That would be prior owner who completed car 100 Miles ESTIMATED and MY personal ESTIMATE of 300 for a total of 400 ESTIMATED miles.
The car is a 2 DOOR in Suicide configuration to open backwards.
It has single element Headlights meaning NO HIGH BEAMS.
It has a Working GAS gauge, Speedometer, Odometer and Oil pressure gauges that DO NOT Light Up. I believe they have bulbs and can light up but do not at this time. I don’t think they are wired to light up.
It has a Push Button on the dashboard that energizes the Alternator to charge the battery.”
UPDATE: *SOLD** Was on eBay
The parts are in good shape. I wonder if the tub is new.
“1944-45 Military Jeep Willys MB. Tub and frame with some trim parts as seen in photos also a M-48 dash mount and 3 combat rims and 1 M-38 type rim. No paper work so sold as parts. What you see in photos is what you are bidding on. Must be picked up”
This is an early one. It may be a good restoration candidate.
“1945 Willys CJ2A #10277 Column Shift, tool dents a rare find. Needs restoration. ran when it was stored last year.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** $3500.
This looks like a good price.
“1959 willys cj3b jeep bikini top and full soft top/ runs great/ it has lock outs aluminum wheels available to fit this jeep contac”
A woman named Deedee contacted me on Facebook saying she was interested in helping sell this MB. It is her boyfriend’s jeep. He inherited it from his grandfather, but it has sat for years. It’s located in Northern, California (close to Hopland I think). The serial number is #MB212201. I have asked for more information (does it run, how is the body) and pics. If you’d like to contact her directly, you can reach Deedee at ddwiley73 @ gmail.com.
A divorce forces this sale, but the seller takes the time to note that there is a high mileage wife on the market now.
“1945 Willys MB. This is pretty much a new build on a 1945 frame and wheels. I bought it as a beautiful looking civilian rebuild (see the picture in glossy red). The prior owner did most of the mechanical rebuild. I “remilitarized” it and replaced several mechanical components he didn’t. The engine is a rebuilt unit (I think it’s a 2A, it has ribs on the head). The T84 transmission and transfer case are rebuilt (with no leakage). It has an overdrive. I don’t know if the overdrive is a rebuilt unit or new (it looks new, does Warn still make them?). Clutch components are all new. The brake system is new from backing plates to master cylinder. Has locking front hubs. The steel is new from bumper to bumperetts: Body, bumper, gussets, windshield frame, seat frames, fuel tank and bumperetts, new springs and shackles. The underside, floor and rear bed have a rhino coat type finish (I don’t know the brand) it will never rust. The wiring harness is almost all correct cloth covered wires, the lights all work, the tail lights are both the type with a brake light for safety. I replaced the water pump and starter last week, battery, fuel pump and a professionally rebuilt carburetor before that (the choke, hand throttle and idle speed combination are a bit touchy while warming up). All 5 tires have minimal wear and look brand new. I replaced the steering components from box (professionally rebuilt) to button. I replaced all the military parts; paint (there is an epoxy coat under it applied by the prior owner, again it will never rust), windshield wipers, pioneer tools & straps, safety straps, seat cushions, crash pads, top, top bows and hardware, safety chains (a detail almost always missing on a rebuild), exhaust system, shocks, spare tire foot and fire extinguisher bracket. The fire extinguisher and tire pump are originals. The M48 dash machine gun mount and pintle are new units, I made the cradle. The Browning model 1919 30 cal. machine gun and carbine are resin copies (Ebay censers, they never did and never can be made to fire!!!!!!!). You can not fit an M1 rifle with an M48 mount, the right side windshield clamp doesn’t fit very well. My MA tile says 65,540 miles when purchased (I presume that was the actual milage before the speedo was replaced by prior owner). My divorce expenses force me to sell the Willys (anyone want a cute, short, very aggressive, high mileage wife ?). I can not provide a warrantee (Jeep or wife). $500 deposit via paypal within 24 hours of winning bid. Final payment by bank check (cleared) prior to going on trailer, or cash at pick up. I can help arrange shipping. The Jeep can be seen any time in Lexington MA.”

(11/24/2012) At some point this was converted to 4wd. It looks like most of the column-shift mechanism is still on the column.

(09/09/2012) This looks good, but much of the body is lined on the outside with diamond plating.

The sellers claims this is from 1942, which would make it a pretty early model. The shovel on the passenger side is interesting.
