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 $6000.
(10/05/2019) This may have a dual PTO. Has a rear winch. This might have some type of Carson Craft hardtop, but I’m just not sure.

(1/04/2019) “3 liter v6 350 transmission dana 44 front AMC 20 rear 4.88 gears disc brakes all around power steering teralow kit in the transfer case. Adapter leaks but I have a new one. 4 link rear leaf spring in rear. Ox selectable locker rear. Solid front axle.”
These two ads were published in the same newspaper a year apart. The 1947 ad highlights the versatility of the farm vehicle and, as an added bonus, its versatility cuts costs. The 1948 ad emphasizes the cost savings, because the jeep is versatile. It’s basically the same message, but with different emphases.
This April 4, 1947, ad from A.B. Clothier & Son in the Oxford Leader highlighted the farm versatility of the Universal Jeep.
This ad appeared in the January 1956 issue of Practical Builder, page 282. It’s a pretty niche specific ad.

No caption. It was part of a box marked “Sept 1947”.

When inverted in photoshop it looks like this:
“VINTAGE
– These came to me indirectly from the widow of a professional (press and otherwise) photographer based in the Holyoke MA area
– The negative(s) is(are) original 3 1/4 x 4 1/4” Black & White
– Due to the light box, some images are seen as cut off
– Camera was set to the monochrome for ease of viewing – some color variations may appear on negatives
– These came from a box labelled: Sept 1947 – this does not guarantee accurate dating, though it is assumed to be somewhat accurate
The pics of the chassis look recent, but the pics of the 3A look like pics of pics.
