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: Still Available.
(07/13/2015) It’s supposed to be an early GPW.
“Matching numbers number 695 off the assembly line original sheet metal really truly a nice truck.”
http://albany.craigslist.org/cto/5103044072.html
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $400.
Looks restorable. Seller lists as MB, but looks to have GPW tool lids.
“This is a MB body from 1940’s which includes: tub, hood, fenders, grill and seat. Floor in rear of tub has been lifted. Some rust in places but not bad.”
Needs engine work.
“I have a 1942 jeep for sale it has a 3.8 v6 it has 38.5 inch tires it needs a crank kit”

UPDATE: Still Available.
(03/02/2015) Engine needs rebuilding.
“Excellent body and original engine which needs rebuilding. ”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7999
(07/06/2015) There are several reasons this shouldn’t sell for $20k besides the incorrect engine.
“With great sadness I am selling my 90% restored World War II Ford GPW/MB. She has been sitting in a carport for the better part of 5 years and needs to find a good home to hit the parade circuit again. The body is all original as is the two piece windshield. She has the original manufacturing plates on the passenger side, black-out lighting, all gauges, new gas tank, the original 6volt electrical system, original military type tires, and fully restored engine. A note about the engine: the engine came off a 1938 Willys Sedan Coupe! That is the only reason this parade/museum piece is not going for 20k. The restored engine has less than 500 miles on it as does the fully restored drivetrain to include the drum drivehaft brake.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $10,500.
Looks like the front frame rails have been patched on the outside, but still might be worth a look.
“Runs and drives well with new tires and combat rims.
Leave a phone number and best time to call back.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(06/14/2015) The body may be a little rough.

http://chicago.craigslist.org/nwc/cto/5069712958.html
UPDATE: Price dropped to $3500.
(04/16/2015) Seller installed a 2″ lift, but it seems taller than that to me.
“1943 GPW for sale, started ground up restoration on it and dont have the energy or time to finish it. Motor is Buick 225 V6 and was pulled and gone through and painted along with T-90 3 speed tranny. Frame sand blasted and repainted along with front and rear diffs.

This might be a good price.
