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 .

It runs and generates.
“World War 2 military generator made by Onan. It comes mounted to the trailer and with a vintage wing tank for extra fuel. It is powered by a Willys jeep motor. The generator was bought surplus after the war by the Elgin Amateur Radio Society and they used it for years. The motor runs good with a fresh tune and LOF. The genset is putting out power but the controls on the board need to be cleaned and gone through from sitting. $ 1800, SOLD AS IS”

(08/09/2014) This GPW has some mods.
“I have an 90% completed 1945 Ford GPW (Willys) jeep for sale. I’ve been working on this jeep for the past 2 years and brought it back to life with a new paint job and engine work. It has a 289 V-8 out of a mustang that has been cleaned up with new gaskets and a thorough cleaning. Lot’s of new parts including all new wiring and gauges! Needs just a few more things before this can be back on the road; it needs exhaust pipes, the driveshafts need to be shortened or replaced and I haven’t looked at the brakes so I don’t know how they are but the jeep has new brake line installed.
The engine runs!! I’ve ran the engine for 20 minutes straight to see if the pressure and temperature gauges work and they do. Come on over if you want to check it out. I need my garage space back!
You’ve got to see this jeep, it’s almost ready for the road! I have the pink slip but the jeep hasn’t been registered since 1997, my plan was to have it as a recreational vehicle only…. I also have the Chilton’s Manual and the driveshafts that are included.”
UPDATE: Ooops. I forgot to make a PDF. Thankfully, Joe made a PDF and MS WORD version for us.
If the Superbowl isn’t keeping you busy today, then maybe this Jeep crossword puzzle will give you something to do. I twas published in the February 1956 issue of Willys News. I’ll publish the results on Tuesday.
This is a PDF that should print out two pages, one for the puzzle and one for the clue.
Otherwise, click on the images below and print them.
These are an assortment of WWII, 1950s Sahara and Algeria, and 1980 maneuvers in Belgium.
The September 1957 issue of Willys News devoted a full page to Frank and Helen Schreider’s 20,000 mile trip from the Arctic Circle to the tip of South America.
Thats some serious weight.
