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 .
Alex spotted this jeep-as-gathering-spot courtesy of photographer George Silk and Life Magazine. The image was taken in October 1945. I wonder if the film shot by the cameraman on the left still exists.
Over a period of 9 years, between 1993 and 2002, this 1944 MB saw two major restorations. The first, done by owner Richard Grace, was a partial restore, returning the jeep to its MB roots. The second, done by Brian Mead, refined and corrected some of the previous shortcomings.

This looks like a nice combo. I think I’ve seen this jeep previously.
“For sale is a combo, restored 1956 Willys CJ-5 jeep and 1966 Bantam civilian 1/4 ton jeep trailer. They were both restored and painted to match just a few years ago, then stored in a building. The jeep has a metal half cab, heater, new upholstry, Ramsey 8,000 lb winch that has never had the cable spooled out, Warn over-drive, original 4 cylinder overhead that runs great, new front hubs, roll bar, small driving lights inside the grill, rack on the back for extra spare tire and handy-man jack and 5 gallon gas can (included). The trailer is a 1966 Bantam 1/4 ton civilain trailer (more rare than the military version), wood racks, spare tire, detachable tool box, and wired to match the jeep. PLUS, this also comes with a full set of mud and snow tires for BOTH the jeep and trailer, already mounted on a full set of spare wheels. I will not split the set up, this is a package deal. Compare the price of this set to a new “Rhino” at close to $11,000, and it makes this jeep and trailer look well worth the price. I have more money invested than the asking price of this jeep and trailer, with the restoration, extra tires and wheels… Clear Oregon titles. These pictures were taken about a week ago. I am also selling a 1960 CJ-5 in another listing. Thanks!”

No pics provided. Ran as of 2 weeks ago.
“iam selling a 1946 jeep willys. it is the cj2a, it was not milatary registered. it has the original 4 cylinder engine, and has high and low range gears. has a 3 speed standard trans. the body is pretty rough but the motor ran up until 2 weeks ago. i think a relay or the coil is bad. when it is running it dont stop. it needs brakes. the brake pedal is stuck. it would make a good hunting truck or just something to play in. if interested please call (479)692-3481 or you can txt (479)280-2466 ask for drake. serious offers only. please dont email me because i never check it and will not get back to you. thank you”
UPDATE: Bill picked up this parts jeep. It turns out this was a DJ-3A with some rare pieces. He is happy he went to look!
The body doesn’t appear too bad. The hood looks tweaked. If a ‘great’ project is one that requires a lot of work, then this really is a great project.
“old willies great project i just have to many Tub is great finders are great hood is there not great grill and window frame good.”

This seller has sold several FCs over the past couple of years.
“This truck does need a lot. I’m told all of the brakes were gone through at a cost of over $500. Also it was running before the bed was removed.
The last guy was going to make his own dash so no dash. Good passenger door, small rust in the corners compared to most. Broken windshield.
This is a project. Clean title in my name. Set up in non op so no surprises on transfer. The price reflects condition. Priced to sell fast please don’t make offers. Bring a truck, trailer and cash. 818-203-970eight”
