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 $3000
I can’t tell much from the pic.
“1944 Willy’s jeep, changed to 12 volt., jeep runs good, 4 wheel drive works. great for hunting or mudding or whatever off road you do.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5000
Looks solid and complete.
“1942 Willy’s . Great jeep. Runs great. Can climb anything!! $5000 O.B.O. Paul”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1200.
It runs and drives. It is a combo jeep, but the price is good.
“Military Jeep for sale. Yes it runs! Working motor, running gear, transmission. I hate getting rid of it but we’re moving out-of-state and have to figure out how to move 3 vehicles already!
Has: 1942 Ford GPW frame, hood, windshield, grill, and other misc parts (all still have their F stamp visible); 1945 Military engine (running) with new fuel pump; 1946 Willy’s tub and transmission. The transmission is good but the tub is not in great shape.
Needs: seats; fuel tank (we just put the fuel line into a gas tank when we run it); drive shaft (it fell out when we flat towed it to our new place); tires (2 are flat though they’ll hold air long enough to tow it home or put it up on a trailer); We sanded all the old pealing yellow paint off of it and it is primer gray but we never got further than that.
This would make a great parts vehicle (we’ve been told the steering wheel alone is worth $300!) Or for those that are looking to buy a new fabricated tub and throw it on there and have a look-a-like military jeep to play around in (our plan). Or a great starter for a crazy Rock Crawler.
The parts mentioned above are the main F stamped parts so if you’re looking to restore it to a stock gpw it would need a lot. But like I said it’s great as a part donor or casual military jeep lover.
Please note we do not have a title for it, it will be bill of sale only. According to the dmv you just need to get a VIN verification done on it (simple as bringing it down to the CHP office) and DMV will then issue title and registration. Asking $1200″”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $2000
(11/28/2009) The engine doesn’t work. If it’s only a little issue, then this might be a good deal.

This is riding pretty low in the rear. The flags are a nice touch; probably raised the value another $100.
“1945 MB project. runs and drives- no brakes. has a clear MI title. has MB frame tag and MB stamped motor. i probably can’t answer all of your ?’s- the best thing would be for you to come and see it for yourself. i have done some work to it, but it has a long way to go. i have a spare cj2a tub that has a decent back half that i will include, and a spare radiator.”
UPDATE: This was sold, but the buyer didn’t show. So, it is back on the market.
(05/01/2010) This MB has a few other parts added.

Nice Slattie!
“1942 Willy’s MB slat grill #109964. DOD is: 1-8-42. A 3-year frame off restoration was completed in June 2007. This slat grill is used mostly for veteran related events, parades and car shows. This is a popular and a favorite vehicle at shows and has won several awards. It has been driven less than 1000 miles total. I drive the jeep at least once every 2-3 weeks and keep it in good working condition.
The original tub was not useable but much care was taken to detail to make the new one as accurate as possible. The slat has many of the original parts such as: brass data plates, frame, grill, split seam front seats, original back seat, steering wheel, column and steering box, short bodied distributor, “steel” marked pintal, “tiger eye” lenses, solid disc wheels, light assemblies, square shouldered footman loops, brake and clutch pedals, filterette, extinguisher and brackets, many TR20/EC/A/AA bolts and the list goes on ….”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $500.
The solid back suggests a MB. I can’t tell much more.
“The Jeep is a 1946 Willys Military Communications 4 wheel drive. Needs work. Asking $500.00.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4800.
This is incorrectly listed as a later model.
“1951 Willy’s jeep. Currently in Kern county. ”
