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 .
Looks like it has some parts value at the very least.
“Willys WW 2 jeep with A Cj2a motor”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1200.
I’m not sure if there is much value or not.
“These two (2) old Willys jeeps are up for sale. One is, basically,complete but body is more rough than the 2nd one that has the radiator. The engine in the one without the radiator was rebuilt and had been used very little until a lady lost control and ran into an object to crush the radiator. We’re not sure of the model year but believe to have been built in the mid 1940s,”
UPDATE: Was on eBay.
Anybody scanned this 16 page Jeepster brochure? This is the first I’ve seen it.
“1950 Jeepster Outstanding Sports Car color, dealer sales brochure (Willys – Overland), ORIGINAL. Form no. VJ73MI-3CM-350 measures 5.5 x 8.25 with 16 pages/panels. New engines Hurricane 4 and Lightning 6. Specifications on back page.”
Craig thought of me when he saw this early 40s postcard. Frankly, I never thought I looked that good in a bathing suit . . .
“Standard Size 3.5×5.5.”

Ken shared this link. The pedal jeep’s similarity (windshield, 3B look) to the “Phillipines?” pedal jeep on the CJ-3B page (you have to scroll down 3B page) suggests it may have been made in the Philippines. The body and seat are slightly different.
