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. This section used to be split into jeeps, parts and other categories, but recent changes to eBay will require this information to be recoded.
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: Price dropped to $2100
This looks like a good price.
“1947 Willys Jeep, runs but needs restored, has a 12 volt system, 50’s hurricane motor, body in good condition, both front seat are new, tow bar, mostly original….$2100 best offer (530) 268-3465”

Here’s a flattie with some very large tires.
“1951 flatfender (grey, white, black forest camo paint), 231 buick V6 ( just installed, runs great), 4 speed tranny, 38″ super swampers (95% tread), On-board air: front bumper is an air tank w/ quick disconect to run air tools, locker front and back (not sure what kind, I just know from wheeling it it is locked up), CB & CD radio, Dual fuel tanks, 1978 tandem axle trailer (doesn’t look great, but trailer is very solid. I use it every year to haul jeep, 1 four-wheeler, and 1 motorcycle), I would like to sell these together, but I will sell jeep only (make offer). If I sell the trailer I can’t haul jeep.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4000
UPDATE 2: I stopped to checked this jeep out on my way home this evening. There are corner post holder holes (it’s too late for me to remember what the correct term is) on the rear corners, so I can’t help think the body is a CJ-2A. Though not perfectly straight, the body appears rust free. I saw no rust underneath along the hat channels either. The Data Plate looks brand new.
The Pacific Northwest 4WD Association’s Summer Convention starts today. I had hoped to go as it is the Carter’s (long time family friends and jeep cohorts) 40th anniversary of their first summer convention back in 1969. I think I was there too, which would make it my 40th anniversary as well, because I think it was a Wandering Willys Club Event if I remember what my father told me correctly, however I was only four, so don’t remember a thing.
There will racing all weekend, including barrels, drags, team relay, obstacle course, cross country course, and something called a side by side (?), but I haven’t figured out what the heck that is. So, if someone could explain that to me, I’d appreciate it. Thanks!
It runs from the today through Sunday at the Straddleline ORV park near Olympia, Washington.
This excerpt is from an article title White Mice, which is about policing European highways during and after the war. Included is a MB painted in the distinctive colors: White vehicle with a black hood. If you go to the website article, you will see a variety of cars with this motif. This would make an unusual restoration project.
“The 62nd Military Police Company was created on November 30, 1943 and activated in North Africa a day later. Originally, it was a standard combat MP unit, and participated in the campaigns in France, the Rhineland and Ardennes-Alsace. Following the end of the war, the unit was reorganized twice, first as the 62nd Military Police Service Company in June 1948 and then as the 62nd Military Police Highway Patrol Company on September 20, 1951, when it was reattached to the regular Army forces occupying American Zone of Germany.

Unlike standard military police units, the Highway Patrol was created not only to enforce laws and regulations, but to handle other duties typically handled by civilian police agencies. These included assisting motorists and promoting traffic safety. On a given day, a trooper might work traffic, investigate a crime, or perform escort duty for a convoy. Or all three, just like his civilian counterpart.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8000.
“Immaculate Condition, Complete frame-off restoration, Body completely powder coated, Original 4 cylinder engine, 3-speed manual transmission, 6 Volt system, newly rewired, Engine clean, new hoses & brakes, new battery w/ rebuilt starter,”

I wonder what condition the floor is in given the addition of the aluminum.
“I don’t have the money to keep driving this. I would like to keep it but I need the money. It has a Buick 225, aluminum diamond plate floor, PTO winch, mechanical & electric fuel pumps, power steering, overdrive, CB radio with whip antenna, tow bar, and the tires are barely used.
