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 .
That’s a MB or GPW body that might not be too bad under all that surface rust.

“1946 Willys Jeep 4×4
vehicle has no title,being sold for parts, bill of sale will be given
The jeep was running when parked 8 years ago for a hub issue, the hub was pulled and never repaired and the jeep has sat in the same spot ever since(hence the trees growing up around it). Jeep does not currently run, but all drivetrain components(engine,transmission,transfer case,differentials,axles) are fine. The drivetrain is the original Willys flathead 4 cylinder,3 speed tranny, all complete. The hood,front fenders,grill,tailgate and dash are in good shape. The tub(floorboard area) is completely rusted out. The frame is badly rusted on the back half, the front half looks strong and useable. The buyer will need a trailer,ramps, and a winch to transport the jeep, we can provide some assistance with loading if necessary. If interested, please call Scott at 512-844-3218, do not email.
The tow bar in the picture is not included in the sale of the jeep and will be removed this weekend.
Thanks for looking.”

“You are bidding on a 1942 Slat Grill Willys mb. The serial number is MB 114517 DOD is 1/27/42 the Toe gusset # is 17920.
The Frame tag and dash data plate match.
Overall the jeep would make a great restoration project. Please take the time to go through all the pictures I’ve attempted to leave nothing out.
The jeep comes with a lot of the hard to find ORIGINAL parts such as an actual slat grill grill, Gas Gauge, 5 mph increment speedo (needs work the needle is broken), 30/30 amp guage, hinged filtertte, Rear seat, top bows, bumper, and an STL pintle.
The body is pretty straight and solid with the exception of a patch in the passenger floor board, a little rust in that passenger seam, some skimmed areas of body filler on the tub and rust out in the fuel tank sump and shovel area. The hat channels are decent but some will need a little repair. Again this is a very nice solid start (PLEASE TAKE A LOOK AT THE PICTURES IN SLIDE SHOW)
The frame is very nice and has the original bumper gussets and frame tag.
The motor does run when hot wired and the jeep rolls easy. The T84 transmission transfer all seemed to function just fine.
The motor is a bit of a mystery as the boss where the serial number should be is completely unstamped. The casting at the lower part of the engine is correct for what should be in a slat so I think it would pass a two foot test and I guess you could stamp the boss with what you want if you wanted it to pass for the actual original motor. The head is an early one with the two bolt thermostat.
I do have a number of other parts that will be included such as top bow brackets, body handles, and voltage regulator; These are all pictured in the slide show which has over 160 pics. (IF IT FAILS TO LOAD THE FIRST TIME HIT REFRESH AND if you still you still have problems let me know)
Don’t miss your chance to own this great Slat grill MB project, It has a lot of the hard and nearly impossible to find parts and a ton of potential.
I do have an open clear Idaho title from the last owner and I can put it in my name if this is any what of an issue for you.”
