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 .
I’ve posted something similar to this video, but not this specific one (at least that I can find). This early 1941 film reel is narrated and shares the news that Ford’s Reconnissance Cars would be joining the Army. The video is located at the National Archives.
It’s a good photo of a BRC-40.
“1941 Press Photo Wartrace, Tenn. US Army jeep & Pvt NR McDougle of MPs. Photo measures 9 x 7 inches. Photo is dated 6-7-1941.”
Perhaps this license plate belonged to Del and Ann Parker?

Underneath that paint might be a good wagon.

“1953 Willys Wagon 4×4
Small block Chevy

Lacks the frame-to-bumper gussets, so it could be a very late 2A or a 3A.

It’s powered by a V8 (which runs). The jeep needs some wiring at the very least.
“Rough, but all there. Needs wiring kit installed. Have that. $450.00 12 circuit kit. Needs front drive shaft lengthen
Have that. Can start and drive. 327 Chevy w/350 turbo trans.”

“Willy’s m38 all original. Converted to 12v. Blown head gasket. Have a hard top with doors also”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $100.
This just might be a modified CJ-3B windshield that’s been modified upward to fit a CJ-3A. Chuck was telling me that he has seen these. If in fact that’s the case, it looks well done. If I were closer I’d get this for Biscuit.
“Willys Jeep windshield frame with glass. I believe it’s for a CJ3A or a CJ3A, not sure because it doesn’t have the vent below the glass.”
