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: This was sold, but the buyer didn’t show. So, it is back on the market.

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. ”
This looks in good shape.

UPDATE: Price dropped to $2500
(05/14/2010) The pics are a little misleading as the engine (chev 283) is pulled and needs the heads rebuilt. This includes a car trailer.
“1945 Willys MB Jeep Project. Manufactured April fools day 1945. Has Chevy 283 SM V8 11″ brakes new clutch, carb, alt, HSD distributor. 283 is partially disassembled and needs rebuild 2 sets of heads T90 tranny 6.5 ” tires and wheels. New CJ5 304 V8 radiator.

(05/26/2010) The body looks solid, though someone altered (hacked) the driver’s side entrance.
“for sale 1943 jeep ,runs , lots of spare parts, needs new home in country , mechanic owner desired, 2,000 firm .only serious buyers,”
