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 got MB tool box covers, but looks like it has a GPW front cross member.

“1943 Willys – Overland Military Jeep…. This is a project vehicle… Jeep was found under a house, mummified…. Been there since 1968… Had to drag it out… Power train frozen… 4 cyl military motor had been swapped out with a 6 cyl Studebaker somewhere in the early 50’s…. That’s all the old gal could remember…. She said it was running when it went into it’s grave… Some parts are off motor, starter, generator… Does/did it run… No Idea… A family member started to get it running… Pulled tranny & transfer case… Found broken gears in tranny… Bought new,,, Included… Then started on transfer case… found reason for locked power train…. transfer case completely rusted solid… and so ended the repairs to the Jeep…. Have some manuals… included…Tub is in great shape…. No Rust… most all parts from original Military configuration seem to be there…. but you need to see and make up your own mind… This baby needs some TLC….

It’s been customized.
“I am selling my Jeep… I bought it a little over a year ago, and have done a lot of work in starting to restore it. It has a 56 ford straight six engine, an old three speed manual transmission, 87 Toyota axles and is a lot of fun. I put on a new starter, single wire alternator, wiring harness, brake lines, and custom soft top. I bought it for 2500, and wanted to slowly build up parts to do a total rebuild. Unfortunately life gets in the way, so I am going to let it go. It is a ton of fun, and always grabs attention, and it could be someones dream car with a little time and patience.”
UPDATE: More photos added, including interior shots. It’s clearly a compilation of parts. It is listed as a 1950 M-38, but the body and fenders are MBish or aftermarket MBish. Unclear why there are no tool indents on driver’s side.

“Currently restoring a 1943 Ford GPW and bought this tub to replace my original tub that came with my Jeep. Had this tub for a little over 3yrs and was slowly prepping it for my restoration. While restoring the tub I found an original Ford GPW ACM Type I tub, so this one went into storage. Asked several of my Jeep friends if they wanted this tub and got no response, so its going up on here.
UPDATE: Was $700. **Status Unknown**
(11/01/2014) Might be a good price.
