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 on eBay.
Bill spotted this trailer with a starting price of $500. It’s located just northwest of Boise.
“This Jeep trailer is a civilian Bantam model of the M100 military trailer. The color is Korean War 24087. It has new 700×16 tires; also a new floor plate. It has a 24 volt tail light and connector plug to a military Jeep. There is no rust. This trailer is located in Southwest Idaho.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $550.
(12/18/2020) Looks like a good price on a trailer.

“1940’s Spen Trailer in Good Condition. Scarce Spen trailer with even scarcer Spen hubcaps. Appears to have its original floor along with the hard to find original Spen hubcaps, 16″ rims, landing leg, and a very nice tailgate. It needs some panel and frame patches or use as is. Could be restored or use as is with the patina look. Great to pull behind a Willys CJ2A, CJ3A, Wagon or other Jeep. $950 No title. Pick up in Western NC.”

“1945 Airborne WWII Converto Dump Trailer
We were in gold country, in central California, hunting for a few things to bring home to the shop when we found this lovely Converto trailer, which is complete down to the last bit, and original. It even has both of the original BF Goodrich military issue tires, which are extremely rare.
The data plates are intact and clear, and the inside of the tub is very straight and clean- No rust or crud piled up- it is ready for sanding and paint-
There are no cuts, dents, or otherwise areas of concern in the tub, gate, and frame. This is a Paint-and-go item. We cleaned out the cement from the tub. If this listing expires without a sale, we may paint it, but the price will be $2500 then.
This is perfect for anyone with a WWII Jeep, wanting to really stand out from the crowd.”
I’m amazed at the unrestored condition of this trailer.

“Converto ½ Ton Airborne Dump Trailer with original data plates. The trailer is in good condition for its age with some rust on the back tailgate, see pictures. Tires are dry rotted and will need to be replaced. Trailer rolls free. Not sure if the taillights work as I have never tried to hook them up. The previous owner put a piece of sheet metal on the floor, unknown why, but it is rust free underneath. The hitch has been changed over to a regular ball type. I do not have the original military hitch that was on the trailer. Included with the trailer is manual, new data plate, and hard to find items, the dump handle and lubrication pouch that mounts on the front. Trailer does not have a title but will come with a Georgia Bill of Sale”
I’m not sure if this has a data plate that pinpoints the date as 1943 or if that’s just a guess. I suspect Acme only manufactured the tongue?

“Original 1940s ACME built Willys Jeep trailer. It has been sitting for some time and definitely needs some TLC, nothing a little sheet metal, a grinder and a welder can’t handle. Perfect winter project to get your Willilys ready for car show season”
No pics provided. Maybe something or maybe nothing.

“1946 T3C that is in great shape! No rust, sides are straight. Only thing not original is the hitch and the plug. New wiring harness.”
UPDATE: The jeep and tram are now priced at $5000.
Bill shared this unique jeep. It is a rare opportunity to own a former tour jeep and its associated tram. The owner is selling the building, so this does need to go.
