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 .
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5500.
Sean is correct (see comment below). It appears the column shift was not original (as I first thought), especially given the hole in the transmission cover for a standard tranny tower (which I missed). I’d suggest examining it closely before buying.
“1946 column shifter. Runs and looks great. Must see to appreciate. Current registration. Street legal. Moving so must sell.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7500.
Dan forwarded this nice looking Jeepster.
“All original, black plates.

Very good condition – well cared for
Clean title”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7400.
(10/22/2013) Not 100% original, but looks good.
“1946 Willys Jeep…Completely Original…Must see! Runs great. $7500.00

(04/02/2013) This is supposed to have an early serial number: #19984.
“1942 ww2 jeep gpw-19984
Have pink and is currently on non-op
Still has original style T-84 transmission
Tub is pretty rusty and someone skinned the back half with sheet metal, I removed the back part
Previous owner said the motor was rebuilt shortly before he bought it and he didn’t get much use out of it before the brakes went out
Brakes need to be gone through and fixed, currently it is rigged up where just the fronts work
Oil pan was dropped and cleaned out (which ended up being pointless) when I got it before I got it running
Has been converted to 12 volt, just put a brand new battery in it
Starts, runs, and shifts great
Would make a great restoration project
$2700 obo”
UPDATE: Still Available
(10/22/2013) Lots of updates to this flattie.
“I have a 1946 MJ flat fender jeep that I have for sale. Its originally from Arizona which means the actual body is in great shape a little surface rust but not much. The motor is a crate 327 coupled to a turbo 350 transmission. The flowmaster exhaust sounds awesome. Does not have a transfer case so it is 2wd. I’ve been told the motor only has a couple hundred miles on it. It has been sent to me from my family in arizona. If you know anything about these jeeps you will understand when I say im 6’3″ and frankly dont really fit in it. sitting on brand new 33x 12.5 radial svt tires. I would consider it to be more of a hot rod then a jeep but to make it a 4×4 just put a transfer case in and your set. It does have collector plates on it now but other then starting it and letting it warm up it doesnt get used so I figure its time for it to go. If you have any questions email me and ask and I will do my best to answer any questions.”

(03/10/2010) Here’s an original combo that hasn’t been restored.
“
1952 M38 flatfender jeep, original 4cyl flathead gas engine, 4 spd trans, this jeep was released from the US gov. forestry service and in original condition. All data plates intact and almost no rust. It has a thick layer of red paint over the original army green.”
Dave Antram forwarded this photo of a Dallas, Texas, Pawnshop run by Rubin Goldstein from 1931 until 1972. I don’t know how the store became “Honest Joe’s”, but I do know Goldstein’s personal motto: YCDBSOYA ….. “You can’t do business sitting on your Afghanistan”. You can learn more about Goldstein here.
Now, can you spot the Willys Wagon in this photo?
Here’s a rare jeep-train photo Marc forwarded. I’ll see if I can find more info about this. We stopped near here during our stay in Mackinaw City, MI in May.

Marc spotted this neat photo. It’s a reprint.
“On 12 January 1945, the first convoy of 113 vehicles, led by General Pick, departed from Ledo; they reached Kunming, China on 4 February 1945 :: 12.6 x 17.4 cm (approximately 5.0 x 6.8 inches).”
