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 .
This runs and drives.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5500.
This is a project.
“This posting is for a Ford GPW. The frame and body match serial numbers the vehicle had not engine so I got a different GPW engine and had it gone through…
The engine, transmission, transfercase, started, generator, carb, distributor, have all been rebuild by Louie Larson. The engine has been bench ran on a jig he has. The Jeep is in the process of tearing it down for restoration. The body is in decent shape. Many small items are present. There are many extra parts that go with it. I am taking a loss at this price. The engine is an early GPW engine serial # 6622. Frame horns need to be replaced, clear body work that needs to be done but very solid jeep. I bought the Jeep in Colorado Springs.
Engine, trani, transfercase are in Richfield. The Jeepis being stored in a trailer in Burnsville.”
There’s some value here.

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.
“Project vehicle- 1942 Ford Willys. Please call Jeff at 801-330-0691 for info. No texts please.”
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.”
