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 .

This is listed as a 1941. It has rear full floaters with a CJ body. Look like a pipe “roll cage”.

older photo before paint:
Not quite restored, but looks good.
“For sale is a Willys MB with a 1942 GPW frame. Previous owner’s grandfather brought the vehicle back from Europe after the war. It has since been restored and a new tub was installed so this is not a numbers matching vehicle. It is a beautiful Jeep to drive, take to shows and use in parades. Absolutely NO rust. Engine was completely taken apart and rebuilt by professionals a month or so ago. Have receipts for $5K worth of work and parts. New period correct wiring harness. All lights and gauges work. 4wd works. Runs like a top. Lots of other improvements. Long story short, it is like new. Let me know if you have any questions. Don’t need help selling. ”

UPDATE: Still Available.
This has a 350 stowed inside. Seller wants Canadian cash, so I suspect the jeep is in Canada.
“This is a WW2 jeep. I restored it to almost original condition. The frame has the gun mount on it. The brakes are drum brakes that work good. The body was ruff when I got it. It was sand blasted and new metal installed. I got the seats and a lot of the gear from a willys war jeep dealer from the US. The tires are what would be on the jeep of that year. The wheels are combat wheels that split apart with eight bolts. The paint took 4 months to get as I wanted the original paint. The white marking on the jeep were painted on using stencils. The bottom of the tub is under coated. New body mounts of that time were used. Here are the things that are not of 1944. It has a 350 Chevy in it and a 3 speed tranny. All tucked away so you cannot tell. The electrical has been updated. This is a real eye catcher and drives nice. ”
