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: **SOLD** Was $450
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!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000.
(02/28/2012) It runs and drives. That windshield sure is sloped!
“Runs ok and drives good. Smokes a little. All original drivetrain have extra parts as well call ”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $9000
(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!

“For sale is an original 1942 military Willy’s Jeep – see scanned documents
– A little history – This was a Naval Jeep stationed in Rhode Island and was sold to the Town of Warren Rhode Island on October 15th 1953. It was then sold to the first civilian owner. This jeep was purchased from this owner’s family in 2002. Please see the attached original documents of these transactions.

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.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000.
There’s some value here. The seller rightly points out the issue with the front frame rails.
“1946 Jeep more than just a parts Jeep. This Jeep was running about 5 years ago and I am currently getting it running again. The drive train and engine were fine and should still be. Good hood, fenders, tailgate gas tank. Had new brakes at that time. The rear tires are not for a Jeep. It comes with 4 original wheels with out tires. The tires and wheels that are on it now are just to move it around, but they will go with the purchase. Has been converted to 12 volt, with alt. The front end hit something hard and bent the frame horns where the bumper attaches, can be seen in one of the photos. Also has a original steering wheel and rear bumper included.”
This might be a replacement body, as I don’t see a battery box lid.
“327 t-18 Dana 44 rear 30 front 6 point cage locked up front and rear 33 super swappers runs drives good.allot more done to it call for more details.would rather trade for a gasser project our a clean lx 5.0 5sp. Mustang.want to go back to drag racing (360) 661-5318 NO TEXTING!!”

No details on when this photo was taken. It is sold out of Kiev, Ukraine.
============================
The auction on this photo by the same seller fetched a bid of $18.50. I was surprised it went that high.
Here’s a rare GAZ out of Estonia. Might be good for a European collector.
“GAZ 67, Jeep, Militaria (Willys Jeep) 1945 ,
