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 .
This is a must sell situation.
“Heavy Duty 4 speed T-18 Borg Warner Transmission (along with Dana 20 transfer case and bellhousing) it has the very low 6.32 to 1 first gear ratio. strong tranny for offroad jeep or truck. it came off of 1977 Jeep Cherokee Chief SUV. MOVING MUST SELL, $450 OBO, (509) 768-6280”
This is located at the same place that has the MB posted below. Again, this looks like a reasonable price with some decent parts.
“This is a decent condition project jeep. It’s missing the pass. seat & inner windshield frame, but is for the most part complete. The motor turns over, and all the drivetrain components spin, but I have no idea if it’ll run. The body’s pretty straight, there’s minimal rust through on the floor, and the frame’s good as well. You can come check it out at 312 S. Dishman Rd. (corrner of Dishman & Appleway) or call & ask for Dave. Shop 509-928-4460…cell 509-928-4460. Comes with a Washington state title.”

Dan spotted this one. It doesn’t look too bad.
“This is a 44 Willys MB and is in rough condition. The tub’s straight but rusty, there’s no pass. seat, radiator, or windshield, but there’s still lots of good parts. (axels,trans & T-case, steering box, ect.) The engine’s a non stock F-head and is missing some parts. The frame’s been welded up alot in the front but is decent from the firewall back. You can see it at 312 S. Dishman Rd. (corrner of Dishman & Appleway) or give me a call (ask for Dave) at 509-928-4460…cell 509-991-4573. There is no title.”

“Complete with extra hood and aluminum doors and extra tires. Lost my job and need the money. Yes it is rusty and most paint is wore off. Was running last summer. This is a project and has no title.

Here’s a good looking jeep just down the road from me. Guess I need to go check it out.

(06/09/2010) This looks like an interesting project.

(05/11/2010) If we had a better pic, I *think* we’d see the upper tool indent visible but the lower one not visible. However, even if that was the case, it appears that though the gas cap is visible, the inlet appears tilted, suggesting it is an aftermarket install. The dashboard suggests it is a MB body (with the glove box). The floor board of the rear is just visible and is flat as expected, rather than having undulations like the CJ-2A. The grille is mb, the passenger fender is mb and the hood is mb. However this does have a CJ-2A windshield. So, this appears to be less stock than I originally thought.
“1942 Willy’s Jeep. Runs good, no rust, super hurricane 6 cylinder engine, new tires. Street legal.”
UPDATE: Still Available
(05/11/2010) This flattie looks good.

A reader ask me about replacing the stock single brake master cylinder, found on many early jeeps, for a dual master cylinder. Can it be done? It turns out there a variety of threads and pages on this alteration. Here are some of the links I found if you are interested in this mod.
