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 .
No word on doors.

UPDATE: Price dropped to $650.
(08/14/2014) I’m not entirely sure what body this is. It’s got a CJ interior, but doesn’t have a rear filler nor the right dashboard for a DJ. Maybe a replacement body?
“Another rare barn find. 1946 Willys Jeep, could be a military jeep because no tailgate. Has frame for top. Yes, it needs a lot of work. No, it doesn’t have an engine. Tires will hold air long enough to get on a trailer. Vehicle has been sitting many years. No title with purchase, just Bill of Sale. Not in DMV records any longer. Are you looking for something to do with your kids or by yourself? Thanks for reading.”

Van was driven one year ago, but will not start because of electrical problems. Needs full restoration. Glass is in good condition. Some rust. Serious inquires only. “

“This is a real army issue willys that was in the korean war which means it has a lot of heavy duty upgrades from the civilian model, it’s pretty much all original except the front bench seat but i have the stock buckets too and the front bumper trailer hitch for towing it as well. Just had a brand new carb and fuel pump put on it and the thing runs great and only has 30,000 miles on it! This thing gets lots of attention and is a blast to drive and will climb up anything!”

“1944 Willy’s MB Jeep 4×4 with the original 4cyl flat head motor and straight drive transmission. It is a complete jeep and did run and drive when we parked it just hasn’t been started in quite a few years. Military base jeep with the original flat head motor. It is not locked up and the gears shift as they should. Everything worked and was a fun jeep to drive. We have misplaced the title but it will be sold with a Bill of Sale. It use to be a batteries jeep and is a true piece of Americana. It has a roll bar and a really solid body for the year! It would be Great for someone to restore or even use as yard art if you so choose. ”
