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 $6000.
It could use a bath for starters, but looks solid.

“This jeep has an Arctic Cold Weather Insulated Cab with Heater – A RARE FIND!!
The engine is a 134 cid 4 cylinder flathead with new rings on standard bore.
Has 4 new wheel cylinders and master cylinder and new DOT5 silicone brake fluid
Has 12 volt alternator and battery
Engine starts and runs very well and holds 50 psi oil pressure and doesn’t’ overheat.
The grease seals have been replaced in transfer and front and rear differentials with new 90W
Replaced heat and fuel gauges and tank unit.
Has 5 combat wheels. Tires are weathered.
Repacked front and rear wheel bearings with new grease seals.
The Jeep body hasn’t been restored and needs hat channels under front floor. Also rust in the rear tool boxes.
All hoses and fan belt are new with anti-freeze in radiator. New water pump.
Has new fuel pump and tune up. All lights and horn work also. Has one electric wiper
Has new seat cushions front and rear.
The cab has cracks in one side window and right door; otherwise cab is solid
This is not a restored vehicle and still needs some body work, but is fun to drive and use as is
Has a good Oregon title. Hasn’t been licensed in several years. Has tow bar on front bumper.
The transmission, transfer and 4 x 4 shifts and works good
Would consider selling the arctic cab alone for $500. This would lower the price of the Jeep

Vince spotted this unique bit of jeep history. It is beautiful! For us history nuts the seller has included some helpful information, too.
“1943 Willys Jeep “Woodie” Stationwagon. Purchased by Willenhall Coachcraft in 1947 from Military surplus sale. Converted to current condition and sold to the Earl of Shewsbury in June 1948.
It was sold in 1961 to Victoria Garage in Stoke on Trent, who then sold it to a Harry Hughs of the same town and then it later changed hands to an AD Broom of Norwich, where it laid in a shed which then became derelict.
In late 2004, the jeep was finally discovered by Fred Smith, a very prominent and recognised Jeep collector, who sold it to the current owner for restoration in 2005.
It has undergone a very thorough restoration, including complete remanufacture of all woodwork, back to the exact specification matching the original condition it left Willenhall Coachcraft in 1948.
There were 95 conversions of this type carried out by Willenhall, and this is the last known example, making it extremely rare indeed.
All woodwork, engine, chassis and fabrication was carried out by the current owner. Paintwork by Andy House Body Repairs of Liphook, Hampshire. Chrome by SilvaBronz of Alton, Hampshire. Trim by Jeff Mussell and Son, Godalming, Surrey.
The jeep is being sold as new since being restored by myself. V5 present, taxed, MOT’d. Registered with the plate now on 125 YUP.
Included in the sale of this vehicle is as follows:
· Photographic history of restoration
· Buff logbook (dating back to first registration)
· Photography of original vehicle and Willenhall Coachcraft History by Archie Templeton-Dick, Historian.
More photos of the jeep and the restoration can be found on Universal Jeep Supplies’ facebook page.
The number plate, NRF 9 is not included with the sale but im offering this for £10,000 separately.”

(10/25/2012) This is a nice looking combo.
“1962 Willy’s pickup with matching willy’s trailer included, trailer is from approximately the 1950’s. Original equipment body, frame, 5 rims, glass, front bumper, and much more. New gas tank and sending unit. Things that need fixing include temperature gauge, gas gauge, wipers system and some oil leaks. Most everything else works fine but could use more attention. The engine clutch and back bumper are from a 1974 Chev 1/2 ton truck and the engine runs well. I do not deliver, buyer is responsible for making arrangements to get the vehicle. The paint looks nice but the paint preparation was not all professionally done so there are areas of the body work that are not smooth. Drives with some roughness and noise but is sound and functional. Nice vintage vehicle that is usable and fun.”
