About eWillys
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.
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 .
“Beautiful, stock 1942 Jeep. Not many of these around. This is a real gem. Clean, great condition and drives good.

“Willys MB for sale. Not sure of exact year but definately WWII. The body had a hardtop on it for much of its life so the floors are pretty decent. The sides and rear panel are straight. Front bumper is missing but more importantly the frame horns and gussets are intact which makes restoration much easier. Comes with tub, hood, fenders, grille, windshield, frame, both axles, wheels, a tires. What you see pictured. Restore this little warhorse to its former glory! WWII Jeeps in any condition fetch very high prices now and this one is an inexpensive starting point. We’ve all wanted one of these since we were twelve, so here’s your chance…won’t last long. Need to make room in my yard. Get it and relive a piece of WWII history.”
The back has been cut, but there’s still some value.
“Got a few parts from a old willys jeep, (military I believe) 40s to early 50s, flat fender style. Look at the pics and let me know what you may need. windshield may be 1960-1969 m38a1 I was told. Or could be off military jeep ambulance with non removable hartop? Prices are negotionable.”
“1945 Willy’s Army Jeep
Daily Driver with a 1970’s restoration
Owned since the 1980’s
Was a radio jeep with capacitor box under dash on passenger side and a junction box for batteries right side of passenger seat
Has the Original canvas top, steering wheel, gauges, chassis, body, fire extinguisher and lined battle helmet. The canvas top has a tear on top and where it connects to the drivers side area
Missing the gas tank, the vehicle was operated with a plastic gas tank in back of vehicle like a small boat. Also missing is the 6 volt battery….the car is started with a 12 volt battery then disconnected when driven. There are some extra parts in back along with original issue tail lights
There is a clear title showing ownership from the 1980’s to present
This vehicle has been garaged on and off in it’s life ….looks like it just came off the battle field now.
Everything works except the gas gauge due to no gas tank
The engine smokes a little now.
If you can send me a digital address…..I can send a few video’s (AVI)of the jeep running and the engine sounds.”
(03/11/2013) This has a few mods and seems to have an aftermarket body.
