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 .

“What you are looking at is an original restored 1945 WWII Ford GPW Jeep. These have become quite rare. Nearly all parts are “F marked” from the factory all the way down to almost every bolt! This Jeep is nearly complete from top to bottom and is mainly all original. All that you see on the Jeep goes with the Jeep. The body is in very good condition. The front floor has been repaired along with all the hat channels. The rear floor was replaced. The bottom of the floor and top of the floor has been coated in bed liner to protect the metal from future elements. The transmission Is the original T84. For a 67 year old vehicle, this Jeep looks great and is ready for you to hop in a go. Its ready for that around town drive or that WWII reenactment. The engine runs perfectly with great oil pressure and no smoke and is an original WWII engine top to bottom. The brakes have been reworked, and all the electrical replaced including the gauges. The tires are new 600-16 6 ply military NDT tires; thats the original style from the factory. The data tags and frame are number matching! The Jeep has a clear title! Sold as is.

(04/30/2012) There appears to be potential here. It runs and drives, too. Not too far from me.

UPDATE: SOLD*** Was listed at $3500.
This might be a very good price. It looks quite solid, despite needing brakes.
“1945 jeep gpw new engine needs brakes”
It runs and drives, but is rough.
“1948 WILLYS CJ2A/FORD GPW SCRIPT JEEP, it has a 1948 Willys CJ2A title, serial number JC2A 179377, CJ3A hood and CJ3A windshield and CJ3A grill, A 1942 FORD SCRIPT TUB and FRAME NUMBER IS GPW 13101 and a 283 Chevy V8 with a four barrel carb, motor start easy and runs good.
My mechanic drove it and gave me this report, the V8 makes it really squirrelly, way to much power, it jumped out of second gear once. I do have another T90 with long input shaft if the buyer wants it. It has power brakes, after market steering, 30 X 9.5 X 15 inch tires, after market racing seats, the Ford Script tub has rust in front floor area, rear floor and tool boxes do not have any rust, it has original “F” foot rest, “F” door strap eye bolts, steel gas tank in place of rear seat, (good thing as no hole cut in side for a CJ2A gas tank neck) 12 volt battery and alternator, the front fenders appear to be MB as they have the headlight arm hold screws still on them.
I can get a correct title with the GPW 13101 frame number if someone wanted it for $250 extra, (not included in this auction) it takes about 30 days to get one.
I do have a WWII windshield, hood and grill that I will make available to the buyer for extra money, if they want them, but they are not included in this auction.
Certified funds must be paid within 7 days of auction end. Payment must clear my bank before jeep can be picked up or delivered.”

This came out of a museum? Maybe it was used at a museum rather than shown in one? Those headlights are one-of-a-kind.
