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 .
I”m not sure if this runs or not.

Engine not original, but looks pretty good.
“1943 Army jeep, 4×4 , 1970s 4 cyl eng so its easy to get parts when needed rest is original. Restored for WWII reenacting and in tv/movies.Has a custom towing setup that makes it possible to attach to your hitch and go.Fun ride full of history great for off roading.Email with any questions.thanks”
It runs, but the carb needs some work. I love the old school roll bar.
“I have a running 1944 Ford GPW war jeep. Flathead 4 cyl, three speed and is 6 volt. It comes with 5 split open combat rims and operations/repair manual. Could be a great restore project or use it as a farm vehicle as I did. It will need a tune up, new carb or rebuild and probably flywheel reground and clutch plate. It does run but because of the carb it’s a little hard starting.
I’m looking to trade for an old ford 8n/9n or similar tractor with PTO & 3 point that I can use around the farm. Its okay if it needs a little work done, but should run.
If interested call and leave a message @ (541) 325-6613 or email.”

(07/06/2011) It runs and drives.
“231ci even fire V6, three speed manual with hydraulic clutch. Has disc brakes front and rear. Locked front and rear as well.Warn hubs on the front. Sitting on a mismatched set of 35″ BFGs. Runs and drives.
It is registered as a 44 Ford jeep. Has a CJ grill and windshield frame on it though. Its definitely not the nicest flatfender around. Would make a great trail rig with little little work. Or could be made nice with a lot of work. One would have to be mad at themselves to want to restore this to original, pristine condition, but I have seen worse turned into better. I bought this jeep to play around in the woods and drive it around town, but it has sat in my garage for a couple years basically untouched, so its time to get rid of it. It has collector plates on it as well.
$2300 obo
email, or call two five three-six seven seven-6731”

(05/09/2011) The seller also has the M-38 for sale below. This has several mods.
“1943 Ford GPW Military Jeep, Buick V-6, new T90 3 spd transmission and Dana T18 transfer case, new Beechwood Canvas top and seats, rebuilt overdrive, new 7.00-16LT NDCC military tires, new painless wiring harness, lots of receipts, rust free body, runs and drives great. I have 2 other flat fenders and no time to enjoy, so time for someone else to love this WW II jewel.”
