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 .
Mike came across this photo on Facebook. I am so happy I don’t have to build jeeps in a dress and heels!
Some interesting history here.
“This is an original press photo. Thanks To The Fifth Division Germany–In the wake of the Fifth Division advance into Germany, a jeep crosses a Bailey Bridge, spanning the Sube River, marked with a hand lettered sign informing all who pass that they do so through the courtesy of the Fifth Division. A Military Policeman stands to one side as the jeep heads for Germany. Photo measures 8 x 6.25 inches. Photo is dated 02-28-1945.”

The caption refers to the vehicle as a ‘Jeep’ car.
“This is an original press photo. Down a 160 foot incline on the sand dunes at Cape Henry, a ‘jeep’ car from Fort Story makes the descent with ease during maneuvers training drivers to handle these vehicles over all types of terrain. Should American Soldiers see service in desert lands the training these men receive will be of great value.Photo measures 9 x 7.25inches. Photo is dated 4-22-1942.”

Blaine shared this one. It looks in good shape.
“1960 FC 170 Jeep Cab over, duel rear wheel, flat bed. 4 speed, 240 ci Ford Engine”
Needs a new tank, but looks like a very stock Lefty.
“48 Willys jeep all original even the wheels and tires in good condition runs drives needs little work gas tank has pin holes needs a new tank $5500 OBO”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5900.
This looks solid. I’m pretty sure this is 6 volt and not 5.
“This is a great original willys. It runs great. I drive this jeep all the time. If you want a good original Jeep this is it. It is still 5 volt and not messed with. The tires are new.”
UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was $6500.
Joe-in-Mesa, think Jan will agree to a plow jeep? You’ll be prepared in case it snows 🙂
“Antique WWII “Willy” Jeep with attached Snow Plow
Was driven in Williams, Az until 1992. From 1993 – now parked in garage in Gilbert and not used.
Exterior of basic jeep looks solid. Interior needs lots of work.
Custom cab cover very worn. See pictures for condition.
Snow plow worth around 1K.”
Listed as a 1943, it appears to have an M-38 body. Looks like this could have been a racer at some point (given the team relay flag holder on the cage).
“1943 WILLYS Jeep for sale, New muffler , Unknown Miles, Power Steering”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.
Merlin spotted this oddity; I hope Irma didn’t sweep it away. Some folks on Facebook immediately dismissed it, but I think it was pretty well executed for what it is. The VW hood even mates up with the truck cowl pretty well. We’ve seen much worse….
“Very different and one of a kind rat rod. Built on a 1969 VW Beetle chassis with a 1972 dual port 1600 motor. 1960 Willys truck cab and title. Motor is fresh, completely new brake system, new tires, nice looking rims. Needs wiring to be completed. I have lost interest, too many other projects.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3000.
Looks like someone mounted a DJ-3A windshield on a CJ-2A. The floors look good. No description provided.
