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: **SOLD** Was $3000
I’m amazed there is any property like this left at Newport Beach. I suspect the engine is not stock.

This looks solid.
“1943 Ford GPW Military Jeep. 4 on the floor, 4wd works great. fun little vehicle for car shows, parades, or driving around. It was originally built in the Ford plant in Louisville, KY. I am willing to work with price I just need to sell. I can provide more information but please do not waste my time. The engine has been overhauled, valves have been hardened so you can use regular unleaded pump gas without any damage to the engine or worry about the hassle of mxing special fuel with a lead block. I can take more pictures just ask. Really good condition. I have this posted in Louisville section as well.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay
It’s not a great specimen, but this jeep was one of a couple thousand jeeps reconditioned/remanufactured by the Allison Steel Manufacturing Corporation. Learn more about the remanufacturing program here.
“Im listing this jeep for a friend: Very Rare March 1942 Ford GPW World War 2 Jeep. This one is very interesting because its a WW2 Willy’s MB frame stamped GPW 6559. As you can tell by the number its early for a WW2 Jeep. And the date plates on the glove box match the frame numbers of GPW 6559. There is a Reconditioning Date plate on the center of the dash saying that it was reconditioned in Phoenix Arizona on February 1945!
The engine is out of a M38A1 and runs well from what we can tell. It was reconditioned by Ralph’s Machine Shop from San Jose, Ca. in December 1976. The transmission is a MB T84. It don’t shift do to 1 tooth broken off. The inside of the transmission looks very clean. The transfer is a Ford GPW marked.
The front seats are in excellent condition and are “F” marked and so are the fenders(no rust on fenders) and some other bolts on the jeep because its a GPW body. Floors have rust by don’t look too bad. Data Plates are original, one is steel and the others are brass. Rear of body is skinned, original sheet metal is still underneath. Gauges are original except for the temperature gauge. Steering box is “F” marked. We believe it has a M38 gas tank? Front window frame in great shape, inner is in good shape except for the inner center bar which can be easily replaced. Brake system is dry, no fluid. Front and rear of frame need work near the bumpers. Please check out the pictures.
He was planning to restore it but already has one he is working on. One of the Outstanding things about this jeep is the low serial numbers of 6559 and the MB frame stamped GPW! Meaning Ford used Willys frames at the factory. And that the data plates match the frame, all Very Cool. Definately worth a restoration.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $12,000.
“Very nice late war production (June 1945) 1/4 ton Ford jeep. All major components on jeep are original. The frame, engine block, and data plate on glove box all have matching numbers (271418), and because this is a late war composite jeep, the tub is a ACM Type 2 and has serial number 246701.
Jeep has undergone a complete ground up restoration to include; engine completely rebuilt (cylinders oversized .40), transmission rebuilt, transfer case rebuilt, brake system rebuilt, steering system rebuilt, new wiring harness, and both differentials rebuilt. In addition, the floor of the tub was replaced. I have receipts for all the work that was done, including the many new or NOS parts that were purchased for the restoration. I would classify this jeep a motor pool class restoration, not a factory class.
UPDATE: **SOLD**. Was listed at $4200.
“I have for sale a 1942 Ford gpw script jeep. The frame and data tag match it has a MB engine in it.”
