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 is a 1945 ford gpw military jeep. As far as I know it was only issued to the navy.It belonged to my grandfather who lived in northern Nevada (home of the top gun naval air base) where this jeep spent it’s entire life.It is a dry western vehicle as the pictures show,and has only a few rust-outs along the axe and shovel mounts.this was a radio jeep and so it has a power junction box on the pass. side.Has many accessories intact including: spare tire and mount,jerry can and mount,axe and shovel mount, ball hitch, pintle hitch, antenna power socket,rifle mount tabs,hand-operated windshield wipers, all gauges,data plates and knobs,black-out fender light,original jack,tire iron,and aux.starter crank and tow bar. also there are some new in box spare parts including timing gears and tune up kit.Unfortunately,there is a small crack on the water jacket side of the engine but all other parts of the running gear are good and as the pictures show most of the body including the floors, tool boxes, dash, seats, fenders, and wheel wells are almost immaculate. With a little work this jeep could be show quality. Send message through e-bay or call 1-775-442-0142. Also,I have a friend who is a pro auto shipper and has shipped this jeep before.He is very reasonable and can ship anywhere in the U.S. Thank you for looking!”

This has a MB block with a GPW head. It has no title.
“Take a look at this beautiful 1945 Ford GPW, serial number 247613, date of delivery January 1945. This jeep has undergone a frame off restoration and is perfect for parades, re-inactors, and collectors. This started out as a hunting camp jeep rescued from a camp in Gettysburg Pennsylvania two years ago.
It underwent a frame off restoration done by me over the past several months. I have owned over 24 jeeps and have restored about 17 of them, several MB’s, GPW’s and CJ’s have sold successfully on e-Bay.
The frame was in good shape but needed new front frame horns. It had the wrong body on it and the previous owner put in a civilian flat head L-head engine. The body and that engine were removed and a professionally rebuilt MB engine with a GPW head was put into this jeep as well as a new reproduction DL Bensinger Body.
Everything has been gone through on this jeep and everything has been cleaned, repainted, or replaced with new, NOS, or repro parts.

Rebuilt steering box and drag link with original re-painted steering wheel. New rear bumperettes, original F-marked pintle hook. 4 new 6×16 6 Ply NDT tires on excellent blasted and repainted combat rims. Spare is a few years older NDT on excellent combat rim.
Engine: An original MB engine that was rebuilt by PROMAR engine rebuilders was put into this jeep. Professionally rebuilt W-O carburetor, new fuel pump, rebuilt manifolds and new gaskets, new 12 volt alternator, new coil, new wiring, new battery, new hoses, new belts, new 180 degree t-stat, new temp. gauge, new ammeter, new fuel gauge and sender, new fuel lines, new plugs and wires.
