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 .
There might be some value here.
“The bad- pretty obvious- its a basket case.
at one point had a different motor and they cut the stock motor mounts and such and welded all over the front of the frame. currently has a frozen cj L134 in it. floor boards are GONE, grill cut, no original lights, the pictures show the rest of the bad i think.”

“1942 Ford GPW, made 9/’42. I’ve had this a number of years thinking I might want to restore or build one more flat fender jeep, but it’s time to move onto other things. I’m selling the last of my jeep stuff as one lot.
TO BE CLEAR. I WILL NOT SELL THE COMBAT RIMS OR ANYTHING ELSE SEPERATELY, ALL OR NOTH42.
The frame is uncut, and straight. The frame horns are in good shape front and rear. The axles look to be the originals. The torq reaction plate is also still there. The front tow bumper is just bolted on, and the frame horns and gussets are OK underneath. It will come with a new repro front bumper also.
The Tub is solid and straight, it’s NOT a perfectly fully restored tub, but the work that was done in its past left it with solid metal floors, solid straight quarters, and tool boxes. good fuel tank well, there is a skim coat of bondo in various places, but it’s a good useable 71 year old tub, and the dash isn’t all hacked up..
The bad news is it’s pretty much a rolling shell, no drivetrain, no title (bill of sale) electrics, etc. . .. It’s how I got it. But if you have a rusty or wrecked donor this would make a restoration or build up much easier.
All the parts included are in the pictures. There are 3 original 16″ combat rims, a good T-90 transmission, 5 gallon fuel cell, good f-134 head and crank, original steering wheel, a good 1945 GPW frame,. . . etc. I HAVE NO OTHER PARTS FOR SALE
$1,400 ………… I would trade for 1958-66 VW bug project, Fiat 124 spider or coupe project, or Diesel or gas powered military generator , working condition (must make both 1 & 3 phase AC 110/220, 10 to 20 KW only) . The type of car I will take in trade is relatively solid and straight, mostly complete, and with a clear title, I am willing to deal with some rust and body damage, dead or alive. NO OTHER TRADES WANTED. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .
Thanks,
Call 425-591-5473 or e-mail….”

“I have a 1943 ford gpw army jeep I need to sell. The older gentleman that I bought it from started restoration on it but stopped. It is partially disassembled and has been mostly sandblasted. I pulled the head off of it before I bought it and the motor seems to not have much wear. The motor is GPW not willys. Clean texas title. I bought it to restore but have since bought a redone MB willys so this must go as I need the storage space for another project. I need the space yesterday so I will deal a little. If interested call (806) 374-3056. As always local pickup and cash only. I don’t respond to emails. Thanks.”
