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: Was $2000 **SOLD**
Dan spotted this and called the seller. This runs well, but does need some work. Dan notes it is a Parkway, but he’s unsure if it is a Traveler.
“Dana 44 Front, 12 Bolt rear, 4 speed, 350 motor, edelbrock manafold and carb. Lifted and sitting on 35’s. Current registration and RUNS!!!”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $700.
(09/05/2012) This was a 1945 GPW, but it now has a CJ-2A body and some other mods, including some Desert Dogs.
“$700 OBO. The value here is in the parts. It does not run and will take a lot to get it running.
It pretty much needs everything gone through or rebuilt to get it street worthy again.
The Jeep is titled as a 45 Ford Jeep, but it doesn’t look like there is much left of a 45.
Body is 2A, frame is 48 or newer.
This was going to be a project but just too much for me to tackle. The motor has two cylinders that are rusty and I don’t have the
time or resources to pull the motor and rebuild it. There are some good parts on this Jeep that someone will want.
MB Grill
T 84 Transmission (Needs Rebuilt)
WW2 water pump undrilled
WW2 carb (maybe)
Buyer must take it all. I will not part it out. Trades considered, unless I get too many calls with people offering me garbage…..
Call or text Dan at five zero three – 380 – nine three six six”

I have been meaning to get a couple FC toys so that the next time I show up at a FC event I can be an official FC owner, even if they are FC-minis. A couple weeks ago I finished up eWillys early, so I trolled through a variety of FC toys on eBay. I came across two low priced, imperfect Corgie FC-150s out of the UK that would fit my minimal budget. I figured if I bid on a couple of them I’d walk away with at least one of them. Instead, I guess no one else wanted them. Thus, I ended up with two FCs.
These toys are a nice heavy weight metal, much heavier than I thought they would be. In fact, they feel heavier than some of the plastic Tonka toys I’ve seen. Both toys could use some TLC, but I think I’ll keep them just the way they are.
Here’s an example of how the FC w/ the conveyer belt ought to look like. Mine works, but the conveyer belt is missing.
Here are some more Corgi Jeep Toys on Flickr, too. Apparently, Corgi made all kinds of vehicles. A wide variety of Corgi vehicles have been photographed and placed on Flickr.
Here’s a short video Hugh sent me of his father driving Hugh’s Jeep. He looks like he’s having a great time bumping around their property.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay
UPDATE: Here is more information about the Jeep Train at St. Simons Island.
“Here is a vintage linen postcard from the late 1940s or early 1950s, featuring a historic view of the Jeep Train, formerly known as the Mule Train, transporting tourists at St. Simons Island, Georgia. This is a Colourpicture postcard (#K7993.) It has never been mailed and is in very good to excellent condition with minor edge and corner wear. This vintage St. Simons Island, Georgia linen postcard will be carefully shipped to you in protective packaging.”
This is working inspection wagon for model train tracks.
“THIS AUCTION IS FOR VINTAGE INSPECTION CAR HO BACHMANN WOOD PANNELLED JEEP WAGON THAT BOUNCES ON THE TRACKS. PLEASE SEE THE PICTURE TO SEE THE CONDITION. I JUST PUT 2 WIRES TO THE WHEELS TO TEST IT BUT I’M SURE IT NEEDS LUBERCATION BEFORE REGULARLY RUN. THE FRONT WHEELS ARE PURPOSELY OFF CENTER SO IT WOULD BOUNCE UP AND DOWN.”

UPDATE: *SOLD** Was on eBay.
This is a cool bit of memorabilia that works.
“110 or 220 Volt Generator. Was one of two used on the MASH television set.

Buyer responsible for shipping and or pick up.
Happy Bidding, Dan”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $18,500.
This is a good looking flattie.
“Very nice Jeep CJ-3A. Frame off complete restoration, with all mechanical workings rebuilt. All stock with aftermarket wheels and tires. Garage kept.”
UPDATE: Robin took my advice, looked at this, and bought it. It’s a good looking jeep that just needs some hat channel work. More pics here.
“Very clean and original.Drives great.Newer top and tires.Clean title.Give me a call.Asking $5000.”
This looks solid and might be a good price.
“4 cylinder flathead looks and runs great!! I have soft doors, rear seat, and full soft top as well. Its a 3 speed with 4 high and 4 low that both work. call or text803 257 6906 Lots of new parts and no RUST!!”
