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 .
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $15,900.
Refurbed, but not restored.
“1942 Ford GPW Military vehicle. This vehicle is fully restored only 268 miles ago, rebuilt engine, transmission and transfer case, all new interior, gauges, tires, wheels and a replica browning 50cal. machine gun. Only used in parades, and driving around town. It runs and drives great, looks killer, super fun and a real 1942 icon. #25178. Now on display at the home of “over the top cars” CHECKERED FLAG CLASSICS 7743 MONTEREY ST GILROY”
It’s a project.

The body has drain holes, but looks MB-like otherwise. Might be a replacement body.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1800. I just noticed it has a PTO bar on the back.
I can’t tell for sure, but the extra rectangular data plate could indicate this was a reconditioned jeep. That could also be an explanation for the MB engine in the GPW chassis.
“I have a 1942 ford gpw that was made in April a 42 it is a script body has the t84 transmission that will shift has a willys MB engine im it Believe to be locked up has a title jeep will need a full restorations has some floor pans that are rusted through”
This was available a few years ago. I’m thinking that battery mount was not a field mod.

I have a replacement passenger side cowl step but havent purchased the other replacement parts yet.I have found the original early star pattern on hood overlapping onto the cowling as well as the “BOBCAT”stencil n the side.Unsure if that is the nickname of the sodier or referring to operation Bobcat of WW 2 on Bora Bora. Full of history I was going to make this a navy jeep grey with black accents making the Fs and Ford scripts stand out in matte black.i will post pics when i get a chance to upload them”

It’s a project.
“This is a military Ford jeep. The tub is a reproduction and most of the running gear is all original. The frame is painted olive drab green. This jeep is pretty close to being all stock with the exception of the paint,rollbar and bumpers. I have a spare tranny, front & rear axles to through in. The engine was rebuilt and has less than a thousand miles on it. She rolls on sixteen inch tires and wheels. The wiring has a new style fuse panel and I added the signal lights. All gages work except the gas gage, which only needs a sending unit. Minor scratches in the paint, no rust to speak of. This Jeep is fun to poke around in. It has always been stored in the garage since I braught her back to life. ”
