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 $3500.
(11/12/2015) That appears to be a VEC CJ-2A body with a filled in tailgate. The rear axles aren’t full floating. Might be a mix of parts. The dogs look in reasonable shape.

This looks good for the price. One of the photos within the ad showing the vehicle’s rear is actually of an M-151, so don’t let it confuse you.

“1942 early 5 digit serial number for sale. I purchased this little gem with the intentions of finishing it, and parking it next to my other GPW-6382 which is finished, but it will not see the day. I have disassembled this little gem, soda blasted everything in regards to the frame, axles, and driveline. Primered, and painted 34087 (darker I know). The tub is in great shape, but on a trailer and hasn’t been touched. It needs a rear panel, hat channels, and some TLC, but in excellent condition. The engine ran when I parked it, with no oil in the water or visa versa. It has been torn down, boiled out and magnafluxed. It is a good core to rebuild, and I have all the internals and externals.
I have purchased way too many new parts to list, so you will just have to come see it to appreciate it. Continue reading
