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 .
This January 11, 1943, photo from Perth’s Daily Newspaper shows American soldiers unloading supplies.
This war bond ad featuring what looks to be a Bantam BRC40 was published in the April 30, 1942, issue of the Daily Illini.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
“For Sale. 1970 Parmley Jeep Body. THIS AUCTION IS FOR THE BODY, TOP, DOORS, AND ANYTHING ELSE PERTAINING TO THE BODY (Chassis not Included). I will consider selling the Chassis and drivetrain.
This body has had one owner since it was new till recent years. The Jeep was never been finished just stored away since the 70’s. Its in excellent shape. There is no damage at all except a spot where the hood fell and chipped the gel coat. Original Decal on Drivers Side. Door frames are included but have never had upholstery on them. This would make a really cool Old School Jeep.”
UPDATE: **SOLD**
“Rare CJ-6. 304 V8, 3 speed trans. Older restoration. I’ve owned this Jeep since 1991. 55K original miles. New battery and recent tune up. Runs smooth. Overhead console with stereo. Lockable center console. Full soft top and doors included. Matching M416 1/4 ton trailer with tailgate. Selling as a package deal. Serious inquiries only.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000.
This runs and is has a complete rear PTO setup plus shield. The body needs work.
“I have a rare little jeep.. It is completely original down to every nut and bolt. The ONLY downside to this jeep is rust in the body. I have yard driven this jeep over the summer. It need brakes and lines hooked up. I have a NEW complete set of brakes lines that will go with it and a NEW master cylinder. This jeep has a new gas tank and fuel line. I have not started the jeep in 2 months but the engine is in great shape and does not smoke or make noise or leak oil on my drive way. This jeep is $2000 firm and is worth every penny in parts from seat frames, pto, engine, gas tank, and tons of other parts. pto and engine alone are almost worth my asking price.”
Gary’s selling this PTO setup. Looks ready to go.

Here’s an early GPW.
“WWII 1942 GPW jeep Ford Script. #10100 frame, engine and data plate all matching number. Replacement body but original body with it. Many original “F” marked parts. Meticulously restored by master builder and parade ready. This was the owner’s “keeper jeep” before he passed away. Has gun mount and clear Florida title. More photos on request.”
At #10595, seems like an fairly early Jeepster.
“Here is a Willys Jeepster I bought recently. Flat head 4 cyl, 3 speed with overdrive, 98K miles. I’m really more into early Ford Broncos, so I’ve decided to sell the Jeepster. This is the second one I’ve owned. She is a good driver. There is some rust in the floors and rockers, I have new in the box floor pans and rocker panels if you’re wanting to restore. Plus some other extra parts including an aluminum radiator. Personally, I would enjoy it the way it is. She also has 5 new tires.
I installed a new clutch last week and bought a new 6 volt battery. She runs, drives and stops as a ’49 Willys should. I have the front and rear side curtains. The top frame is complete and in good condition, but needs a new skin. This is the only Jeepster online below $10,000.00. If you come see it, you’ll buy it!! Tennessee title in my name.”
