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 .
This brochure came from eBay. I’m guessing it was published sometime in 1956, given it describes both the DJ-3A and the CJ-6 as new models. The brochure folds out horizontally.
Harvey Rust submitted this patent for an adjustable scraper blade mount on April 1, 1949.
“This invention relates to scraper blades of the bulldozer type such as used in leveling or pushing snow, dirt and the like, and in particular a blade mounting for removably attaching a blade to the front of a Jeep or the like wherein the elevation of the blade is readily adjustable and in which the blade is hinged and resiliently held to provide tilting movement when the lower edge of the blade engages a fixed obstruction.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $18,500.
Lots of nice work on this build.

Nothing about this is jeep-like, but there are folks looking for these.
“1972 AM General FJ-BC 8C 1/2 ton route delivery truck-postal van with title
…mid-restoration
…moving and must sell”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3000.
It’s a project.
“1942 Willys MB with TITLE!!
Everything Sandblasted & mostly epoxy primed, has motor/trans & many other parts, some salvageable, some not. The serial numbers on the block and head match they have been verified of the same era. The trans appears to be from a GPW. Once the frame was blasted, it was amazing just how nice it turned out. The frame other than the front and rear bumpers, is next to 100%. Everything is very clean.
The body, is definitely 77 years old. It’s actually quite amazing how little rust it does have.. basically only where the wood runners go under the drivers & pass floor pan & some in the gas tank area. But, overall the panels are not very straight & would require major body work to be presentable. The real value with this jeep is matching block serial #’s, a very clean frame & title. They reproduce everything for these jeeps, all the steel is easily attainable. But, this one has a couple bullet holes. :)”
UPDATE: **SOLD** was $12,500.
Seems to have one one-spoked rim. I think the others are painted black.
