About eWillys
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.
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 .
You might have seen one or another of these images illustrated by Normal Rockwell, but did you know there’s a story as well? Published in the January 29th, 1944, edition of the Saturday Evening Post, the story was written by Wilbur Schram, who went on to be called the “father of communication studies” in the United States. The story appears to be a fun, fictional tale of a jeep named Wilbur and his exploits. Unfortunately, I could not find any copy of the full text anywhere on the net.
Here’s a good price on a complete body kit, even if it does need some repairs. I don’t think the Bobcat bodies are as old as 1958, though I don’t know the initial date of production. I don’t recognize the style of taillights.
“Old Willys fiberglass body, hood, fenders, and grill can be yours right now! Approx 1958 is the model year. This is a “bobcat” fiberglass set, needs just a little work. This project can be yours for 300 or best offer!”
This looks like a good price. Starters are cheap and easy to replace.
“This is a awsome deal rebult motor need minor tlc no major rust the starter doesn’t work but you can still crank start feel free to ask any questions”
The seller indicates this is in bad shape and it sure looks that way. The seller says no phone calls unless serious, but doesn’t list a phone number.
“I have a Ford GPW project jeep for sale, I am trying to decide whether or not I want to keep it for a future project or just sell it now. This is not a fire sale, but if someone wants the stuff they can buy it, but I am not giving it away.
I have the entire jeep, 1942 # GPW 46940, it is in fairly bad shape, but could be restored. No hood, and the grill has been cut on and will need replaced, the dash has been cut, and someone cut a tailgate in it. Red in color now. No side handles. Windshield frame is good, inner windshield frame needs repaired or replaced. Has good WWII Trico vacuum wiper motors that are still attached. No seat frames. No combat rims, no top bow brackets, etc. Front frame horns need replaced as a custom bumper has been welded on, rear bumper is also custom.
Floor pans in front are not too bad, rear has holes, half of the hat channels are surprisingly good. Rear storage boxes have small holes in them.
NO TITLE or Data Plates.
I also have a WWII Ford GPW Jeep Engine for sale. It is GPW 114579, It does not have a GPW cylinder head, but instead comes with an early Willys unit with no “Jeep” or “Willys” cast into it. The piston, rods, and crank are still in it. Had been bored .030 over and .010 under on the crank, and will need to be bored again or probably sleeved due to rust on the cylinder walls. No obvious cracks anywhere, the area under the distributor looks good.
The engine is just a short-block, no intake, exhaust, or any accessories, just the block, crank, rods and pistons, timing chain and cover, and camshaft.
I also have a GPW marked T-84 trans that will need rebuilt, and a GPW marked transfer case with correct parking brake mechanism for sale as well. I will take $500 for the pair of them.
I will take $700 for the jeep.
$500 for the engine
$500 trans and transfer case
If you want the whole thing, engine, transmission, transfer case, and the jeep, I will sell it all for $1200.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3700. This was listed for sale in 12/04/2008. It was priced at $3000 at that time.
The body lacks tool indents and has the tire mounted like the CJ-1 and CJ-2s. The front clips appears to be MB.
