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 .
It’s rough, but it looks to be a GPW tub.

“Old Military Willys/Jeep/Ford tub. Not sure of year. Could make a cool Rat Rod or cut a side off and hang it on you wall”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $10,000.
Might be worth a look.

“Rare find, this flat fender jeep has no rust and runs and drives great! I’ve owed this jeep for roughly 25 years and it was my daily driver for many. It’s been garage kept that whole time and never driven on winter roads. Kids, moves and jobs have taken priority in the last several years, and now it’s time to let someone else love the jeep. This jeep is ready to go anywhere you want to take it: it could easily be made into a parade rig, and extreme 4 wheeler, or simply leave it a fun runabout. This is a truly unique rig and still sports many of the original Ford F parts. Text me at 4o6 5four6 two86two to come see it!

“1945 Ford GPW 1/4 Ton Utility. Ford 302 V8 engine, 4 speed manual transmission, 4X4, power steering, power front disc brakes, Unilite Electronic Ignition, Dual Brake Boosters. Wheel base extended from original with longer frame. Vintage metal removable hardtop with locking doors. Front window defroster heater/fan. Engine was professionally built and has low miles (approx. 1500). Two-Barrel Holley Carburetor with manual choke. Starts and runs well. Interior has a full roll bar. Includes a nice heavy front duty tow bar. Also has a Smitty built Rear bumper/Spare tire rack. Locking hubs front and rear (rear hubs currently set non-functioning/fully engaged). Rear Differential rebuilt with new ring and pinion (est. 5000 miles ago). New full gauge set but electronic speedometer works off and on (listed mileage is since the engine rebuild, actual mileage is unknown). Will drive highway speeds with no issues (Drives like an 80’s CJ5 with a V8 power). Originally a Navy Sea Bee military vehicle. Has plenty of panache and public appeal whenever drove or shown.”
This does not run.

“1944 Ford Jeep Willys Engine 3.07 Chevy El Camino V8 1971 Driving great with working 4×4 Title in hand”
Bill shared this post. The seller describes it as a 1943 MB with a GPW engine, but the bumper, the took box lids, and the front crossmember all suggest this is a GPW. Maybe the new data tags identify this incorrectly as an MB??

Both the body and the frame have been modified. Note the Ford stamp on the upper right of the back of the body.
“Have 50 jeep tub frame and hood all for 200 come get it”
Listed as an MB, it has GPW tool box lids. From the front, I can’t tell if it has a GPW crossmember or not, as it kind of looks like it curves the entire way.
