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 .
Given this has a PTO, I imagine there’s value here for FJ-40 folks.

“Bring a trailer! No title! Does not run! For parts only! What you see is what you get! Bring a trailer! 1200.00us CASH”

Looks in good shape.
“This amphibious 4 wheeler is a rare find in excellent condition. Created back in the 60’s with articulating tubs the Coot is able to climb over most anything. Used for hunting, feeding livestock and for puttering around in the water ( has the capability to add a propeller) it was state of the art in it’s time. Includes headlights,taillights and winch. The tires are literally brand new. Powered by a Honda engine. We have sold our rural property and no longer have a use for this awesome little vehicle. Time for someone new to enjoy her.”
This GPW with a body lift also includes a trailer.

“This is a 1943 Ford GPW. Ford made about 2 out of ever 5 Jeeps during World War 2. This jeep is about 90-95% original and is ready to be restored. It still has the original Go-Devil 4 cylinder engine. Three of the rims are the 2 piece battle rims. The body is decent. This jeep ran when it was parked some 15 years ago. Also included is a 1942 Willy’s jeep trailer. I’m putting this out there to see what kind of interest there is. If you do not like my asking price make me an offer.”
Not sure how much value is here.

Barney from Barney’s Jeep Parts sent November 1961 edition of the Jeep News our direction. The FJ-3A makes a big splash with a variety of images on page 4. Several Jeep Clubs, including California’s Auburn Jeep Club, Denver’s Mile-High Jeep Club, and Washington’s Trailer Breakers Jeep Club get mentioned. One article highlight’s Buddy’s win of a Surrey and Sailboat from the Del Monte Contest and includes an image.
There’s also a mention of photos and writeup about the Jeep Jamboree in the December 1961 issue of Argosy Magazine, but I cannot seem to find the issue on eBay.
These two glass coasters popped up on eBay last week for a reasonable price. Strangely, the image of the jeep is reversed. The gas inlet and steering wheel appear to be on the passenger side in the image.
That soldier looks awfully clean for being in the process of digging out a jeep. Even the lighting looks staged to me.

“1944 Press Photo Sgt. John Baker digs a Jeep out of the Marianas Island mud. This is an original press photo. A 7th AAF base in the Marianas — Staff Sgt. John W. Baker, 920 York Street, Cincinnati, Ohio, transportation sergeant for a 7th AAF fighter group in the Marianas, slugs it out with General Mud, which occasionally masters even the powerful jeep. A modern building program is rapidly doing away with such troubles as these as Americans convert the Marianas into giant air bases. Baker, a veteran of the Saipan operation, formerly worked as a machine operator for the G & G Manufacturing Company, now the Crosley Corp. in Cincinnati. He holds the Soldier’s Medal for heroism in rescuing trapped crew members from a crashed and burning bomber in the Hawaiian Islands last December.Photo measures 8.25 x 10inches. Photo is dated 12-08-1944.”
