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 .
What makes this one interesting is the hard top and the winch (and the title)…of course you need to be local for this one to be worthwhile. (Bid is currently only $205)

So this is a good example of where shipping and handling come into play in an auction…
Location: Goldsboro, NC 27530
Bids on this are currently $5, and for that price this is a great deal–but really only if you live in the Goldsboro area (and hoping someone on eWillys is…) But once you add in shipping and handling (you’d have to check with the auctioneers to get an estimate) this likely becomes only an “ok deal”.
Probably a good core…but let’s say handling is $10-15 (handling fees for this auctioneer run from $5 to $23…) and shipping is $20+, and you also have to pay the auctioneer’s commission…and all of a sudden you’re paying $45+ for what looks like a great auction find if you need to have it shipped.
Lesson is when using these types of auctions, shipping and handling can be much higher than expected, and those costs need to be factored in.
But all that goes away if you’re local and can simply pick this up….

Willys Overland speedometer – $40 Hampden, MA
This is a great piece, super clean and great patina, I would not over restore this one, clean it up, make it look nice, but don’t over do it and ruin the age and beauty of this one. It’s a good one.
Clean looking, speedo needle is intact, gauges look clean. Lists as a 1948, its 0-80 so could be on the money there. It’s a neat piece someone should swing by and save this one. It would be in my pile for sure. Glady pay you Tuesday for a Willys Speedometer today. I have a rig that could use this one.
Information from seller:
Willys Overland speedometer {1948} with zero miles showing . Some wiring still attached Great for early jeeps ,or Rat rod

Willys MB Military WW2 Jeep Front and Rear Axles with Springs – $175 Lowville, NY
I’m not well versed in MB parts, so happy to get an assist and update the post, they are full floating axles so they could be the part. I know the MB stuff had some different adjusters for the shoes at times, there are some different looking shields on the front axles on top of the knuckles.
Let me know what you think.
As far as Axles go, these are nice looking for sure worth $175 all day long it’s a good deal if they are half decent inside. I don’t see the risk here for the price load and go, then figure it out at home, pop the covers and see what’s awaiting, I can smell it now, wonder why they don’t make an “Old Axle” candle scent, or even Old Spice folks out there, there is an untapped market here! (You don’t have to wonder why we will never match Dave in number of posts when I get down the rabbit hole on a set of $175 axles and the $80 Speedo, but these are decent looking parts to save!)
Information from seller:
Original Front and Rear Axles that were removed from a 1944 Willys MB WW2 Military Jeep. Leaf spring sets and steering tie rod assy. are included. $175 for all. Thanks for looking!

Need some help identifying this one, so please comment if you know what vehicle(s) this might fit…
Caught sight of this auction for a “Transmission” (but also includes a Transfer Case), as I’m looking for a spare Dana 18:
Location: Reedsburg, WI 53959
This is a good example of a possible gem available at auction — the current bid is only $1, and it’s listed as “pickup only” – so if you’re in the area (perhaps Madison is the closest city?) and this is something you might need, I expect you may be able to pick this up quite inexpensively (would probably cost more in gas than the winning bid).
See the end of this post for some hints and tips about bidding on these types of auctions.

Pickup Truck Bed trailer in WA
Information from seller:
Jeep Willy bed trailer going to need a new bearing for one of the wheels and and lights replaced Make reasonable offer no it’s not a dollar Not sure of the year
https://www.facebook.com/share/16FuHHLrZa/
Tim’s Tip > Looks like a later model at least from the tailgate, but it’s listed as a 1956 but they also state they don’t know the year of the bed. There is a different configuration for the under bed bracing, the earlier beds have 5 supports under the bed floor that run left to right only, the later beds have a little different set up in the back where there is a smaller boxed out support that runs front to back and provides a set up for the change in fuel tanks.
Here is an example of an early Truck Bed, the later boxed out the tank as it was shifted to one side vs the early being across the back of the frame. Photo from www.OldWillysForum.com
