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 .
The paint on this looks weathered, or brushed or something odd. The body corners at the passenger and driver entrances have an unusual addition.

Mitch spotted this jeep and asked my opinion. I said that someone lazily painted everything red — the frame, the hmbs, the bolts, and more — which usually suggests that someone was simply trying to cover what is there (rust, dirt, etc). I also suspect that underneath the diamond plating in the back are holes or rust or something. It looks like there is some denting on the driver rear quarter panel, but that could be an optical illusion.”
Here’s another one Mitch spotted. The paint is faded and their is some rust along the real tailgate. I’m surprised to see a pintle on the back of this also.

This appears in good condition. I think this might have been the text from an eBay ad, because it has a ‘buy it now’ reference. I think the third party appraiser has been partying too much given the appraised value of $11,000. The seller will do better if they paint it OD green and put some military tires on it. Those metal (as opposed to aluminum cast) slots in that good of shape are hard to find.
“Collector owned. Collector has Street rods, frame off restored muscle cars, woody’s, Mopar’s, classic trucks, etc and this Willys Jeep is one of the many in his collection.
THIS JEEP WAS JUST APPRAISED AT A VALUE OF $11,000.00 BY A CERTIFIED THIRD PARTY APPRAISER (SEE APPRAISAL BELOW WHICH IS INCLUDED WITH THE SALE OF THE VEHICLE). NOTE: THE COLLECTOR IS A MOTIVATED SELLER. Call me for a buy it now.
A show and award winning full frame off restoration of this Willys Jeep proves it to be one of the nicest restorations around today. OVER $16K INVESTED in the frame off, nut and bolt, restoration. Heavy documents and receipts included.
With the original F Head 4 cylinder motor that has less than 2,000 miles on it, this Jeep has seen very little road time. Car has never seen rain and has only been driven around town. Jeep likes like showroom new.
The interior and floor pan are in excellent condition, matching the dash and gauges the truck reflects the countless man hours installed to get it to the condition that it is today.
This Jeep is ready for shows or a Sunday cruise, with its manual transmission run it down the highway at 65mph or take it to the trails to see what it was meant to do!
This Jeep will come with multiple awards one at local car shows. This is a military Jeep sold Civilian with very low original miles.
In full disclosure, the items that are not 100% show quality as follows:
-A small run in the paint on the passenger side of the hood. See pictures
Everything works and this Jeep is ready to drive anywhere!

Thanks!

I’m guess the compressor itself doesn’t work? This looks similar, yet different from the Hesse Hornet Compressor.
“Antique Jeep Air Compressor made by General Supply Co. from “L” head Jeep engine. It’s all there including governor. Motor turns free. VERY RARE!”

(02/28/2012) It runs and drives. That windshield sure is sloped!

(05/06/2012) “I have a 1945 Jeep MB for sale. It has everything right with it and it has everything wrong with it. By that I mean that most components show wear, but they are all there in the original form. Most are the original to the Jeep. The engine, frame, body, and trans #’s match and most other components are the original that came with the vehicle, even the horn. Its got a little rust in the common areas, but the body is the one that came from the factory. Of course there are replacement parts but they are high quality reproductions. The tires are virtually new NDT (~100 miles) and the wheels are split rims. The jeep is not “modified” or “modernized”. It is a good example of an original vehicle, perfect for someone who wants to just drive it or totally restore it.
If you are interested, I can send some photos. Price $ 9000.+ depending on response to ad.
Thank you,
Alex”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5800

After seeing this ad about the shortened wagon, a reader named Or forwarded me the following links that show these shortened wagons aren’t as rare as we thought. Thanks for finding these!

The jeep’s odd perspective makes it look like it is slowly melting into the ground. The passenger side is crooked, the fender is collapsing, yet the grass around it is growing and vibrant. It seems a tribute to Salvador Dali. If that thing (flatbed trailer?) wasn’t in the background this could be a beautiful picture.
“Parts jeep. Will not part out, if u want something off of it, please take all. Best reasonable offer.”
