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 .
Includes a 1950 Ford (both seem to be included in the price). What I like about the wagon is the cool Greer Willys emblem.

“Yes We have been working restoring this old Willy’s Jeep. Now I am ready to sale it. No it currently does not run yet. It ran when it was parked a few years ago. The old man who had it before me. Died. and there is no title. To be found. Have to start all over again. (Application for title) thru DMV. with (Statement of facts) and Bill of sale. I worked alot on the interior/exterior, sanding and painting. I had to purchase brand-new 1945 Willy’s Jeep seats and new windshield. I removed the Gas tank to clean it out. It still needs a good 12volt battery before trying to start it. And finish cleaning/installing gas tank.”
This past weekend was the 2018 Willys America Open House. Thanks to Paul Barry for hosting and for Scramboleer Dan for posting photos and reports at the Old Willys Forum. You can see all the photos here (you must be logged in to see most of the photos). I’ve posted a few pics below.
A distant relative of mine was vacationing in Bad Sachsa, Germany, when he spotted this jeep. They city has an annual Schützenfest that includes a parade.
It looks like the same jeep was in the 2017 parade.

Looks solid.

“1943 Ford GPW. SN 102820 3-16-1943
This jeep originally came from a farm in southern Missouri. The previous owner had it for many years, and he used it as a farm jeep. It was in rough shape, and it was missing a lot of parts. I bought it from him and slowly began to make some progress, it was a continuous project for about 8 years. I ended up having to replace the tub with a late ’42 tub. The front floor, fuel tank sump, and hat channels were all replaced.
I ended up taking the very long and costly road for a restoration; starting with a basic shell of a project and tracking down all the pieces to complete it. The vast majority of the parts are original GPW NOS or take-off parts, but there are some reproductions in the mix. The vast majority of mounting hardware are also original script bolts/nuts/washers.
Everything on this jeep functions, it was a frame off restoration. It is 6 volts and all lighting works as it should, the transmission/transfer case shift like they should, and the engine runs very smoothly. Brakes are adjusted, and they do not grab or pull. Continue reading
Nice looking jeep, but not restored to original. It’s got M-38 grille hinges, electrical updates, and some other mods.
