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 $1400.
Not exactly Olive Drab, but it looks like a solid trailer.

This looks like a good price to me.
“Very well preserved 1944 Willy’s 1/4 ton trailer. Purchased the trailer from an estate and never has been titled. Completely stock with the exception of the four prong wiring connector.”

“I have a fairly complete, original, unrestored, and solid WW2 1943 Willys MBT trailer. It’s been painted a few times. But a quick pressure wash revealed the original OD, USA numbers, stars, and unit markings. We have plenty of restored Jeeps and trailers out there, and this one should be cleaned up and preserved as is.
The only parts missing are the two rear reflectors, wiring and both tail lights. Original lunette, chains, drawbar, leg, hand brake, dataplate, fenders, combat rims . . . and the kicker . . . NO tail gate!
I’ve had this for over a year, and actually used it a few times to haul plastic bottles and cans to the recycling center. It tows great and the hand brake works as it should. Current California PTI registration to my name. The previous owner had a coupler hitch attached, but fortunately used the original holes up front. I just recently removed the drawbar, leg, and lunette for storage. But you get everything shown in the photos.”
Tom Perkins’ company Treeline Teardrop Trailers out of Petaluma, California, offers both road and offroad trailers. Tom’s considering the purchase of a CJ-3B, which I think would look good pulling on his trailers. Here’s an example of the offroad one below.
