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 I’m not shocked that this is still available
(08/20/2010) This poor jeep. I’m pretty sure this is a CJ-3A rather than a 1945 military jeep.
“here is a 1945 willys military jeep that was titled in 1951. back then military jeeps didn’t have titles. If you bought one back then it could be titled when registered. It does not run anymore ( motor is stuck ). The body is rusted bad but it has the original drivetrain . 500.00 obo”

This poor jeep. I don’t see much salvageable.

UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was $350.
Doug spotted this Last Ride. The tree growing out of the jeep might be worth $350. The jeep itself is should be free 
“Today’s special!! One 1946 willys rolling chassis with some good body parts. Tree and transmission in bed no charge!! Will consider any reasonable trades. Motorcycles or hunting gear accepted . cash also accepted. No title do have metal id tags. What you see is what you get. Bring trailer.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $400
“Here is a cj2a jeep,no motor,trans,front axle,..Its does have front fenders..for more info call buddy”
After seeing Chad’s build yesterday, Gerald sent me pics of the ‘Swamp Rat’, which also sports a flathead V8. Of course, it’s got a bit more wear and tear on it than Chad’s, but i have to say I really like the way that fits in the engine compartment. This sure has an old school feel to it.
Gerald notes, “Check out Johnny’s wood cab and side pipes. The paint chipped off the windshield, but it used to say RAT. It’s a star attraction at one of our local yards.”
Gerald sent some really sad pics to me with an idea … let’s create a “Last Ride” category. We’ve all seen one or more of these jeeps: Something so rusty, so damaged, so modified, so mortifying that the grass is holding it up.
So, I’ll put up two posts tonight (courtesy of Gerald). If you have some pics, see some pics, or save some pics, send them my direction and we’ll add them to.
Gerald writes, We bought this about 10 years ago and finally decided to pull it from the weeds. We needed the rear axle. The frame collapsed as I stood in the rotten drivers compartment to steer the wheels while being pulled by the tractor. It was truely it’s last ride. We will pick it over and save some stuff. Check out the shackle lift.
Gerald writes, Here is a 1970’s Canadian version of a M715. These fell of a flatbed truck and sat for years until I got them. They were a waste of time, but could not resist.
Gerald writes, Here is an old Jeepster I took apart back in 1980, Nice plate floor…….and mini terra recaps I may add.
UPDATE: I suspect this jeep is on it’s last ride. It’s now a mailbox.
A reader submitted this unusual find. Yes, the seller of this old jeep somehow used it as a mailbox (I think the mailbox is on the back of the jeep), though technically I’d argue the jeep is more of a mailbox pole. While I firmly believe that the jeep has earned the reputation as one of the most modified vehicles in history, the use of a jeep as a mailbox pole is particularly rare.
“Willys jeep. Military, of about 1944. No engine, no trans, no papers, but lots of rust. For a long time I used this old jeep as a mail box; if you buy it, I won’t be getting bills anymore. For $400., you can be sure that your bills will find their way to your door.”
