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 .
1943 GPW Hillsborough, NH $10,000 & M-38 $75002500
This doesn’t run. It is listed as a ’48, but has military rear hubs and body at there very least.
“1948 Willys Jeep. Needs restored. truck box sold separately. $1000 in tires and wheels.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $700.
(09/05/2012) This was a 1945 GPW, but it now has a CJ-2A body and some other mods, including some Desert Dogs.
“$700 OBO. The value here is in the parts. It does not run and will take a lot to get it running.
It pretty much needs everything gone through or rebuilt to get it street worthy again.
The Jeep is titled as a 45 Ford Jeep, but it doesn’t look like there is much left of a 45.
Body is 2A, frame is 48 or newer.
This was going to be a project but just too much for me to tackle. The motor has two cylinders that are rusty and I don’t have the
time or resources to pull the motor and rebuild it. There are some good parts on this Jeep that someone will want.
MB Grill
T 84 Transmission (Needs Rebuilt)
WW2 water pump undrilled
WW2 carb (maybe)
Buyer must take it all. I will not part it out. Trades considered, unless I get too many calls with people offering me garbage…..
Call or text Dan at five zero three – 380 – nine three six six”

It’s hard to tell just how much this has been modified from the two pics provided.

http://www.ksl.com/auto/listing/14992483
UPDATE: Was $7500. **SOLD**
(01/08/2012) At least the seller acknowledges it isn’t all original.
“This is rare, most left the USA never to return.
It runs, shifts and stops, I have driven it in parades the last few years. It has been covert-ed to 12 volts and has a few other minor mods but for the most part it is stock and un-restored.
Body and frame numbers are gpw and match, engine is also gpw #’s, ID tag date is January 1944, original and unmodified body (except windshield) with very little rust. also have Pentagon manufacturing hardtop that goes with it. The trans, transfer-case and axles look original for the year.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $18,000
(08/24/2012) Looks nice.
“1942 GPW Ford Jeep.Original data plates and hood number. Restored a few years ago. Thus jeep was used in several movies filmed in Petaluma , Ca. It has a rebuilt carb., rebuilt transmission (I was told this when I purchased it), new tires on 5 original split rim combat wheels, new paint and a new canvas top.It has a Willys motor (which was in it when I got it) and a 12 volt system. It was restored with all the original parts., i.r everything was taken off, sandblasted, cleaned and repaired (as needed) and put back on. The front seat cushions are not new- there were on it when I got it. It had a new wiring system an all lights and horn work perfectly.The beauty of this jeep is the original data plates – often missing and the original hood number – often sandblasted off or painted over.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4500.
It’s got matching numbers, but needs work. No title.
“At this point I’m not finding the time to restore GPW 266079 DOD 4-21-45. I’m in Woodland Hills. It’s matching number engine frame and dataplate. Has 5 combat rims, back seat and a few other goodies. There may be an item or two I haven’t taken pictures of a few things such as gastank, spare gas can holder and other parts that go with the GPW. Has a T-90 installed and you can see in the one picture of the skid plate that they dropped the tranny down rather completely cutting up the cowl. I have a complete GPW T-84 tranny and transfer case that goes with sale. There is no title as it came off a ranch in Colorado, so only bill of sale.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** GPW was $10,000 & M-38 was $7500
No pics of the M-38.
