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 MB has been lengthened.

“Need a part for your WILLYS JEEP? I have anything and everything (Mechanical [Non-Electrical]) you can think of!
The parts I have are for a Willy’s GPW L134!
(1941-1945) are the years the Willy’s GWP (GO DEVIL) were manufactured! This is a very light weight and capable 1/2 ton vehicle used in WW2. Because these parts were manufactured from 1941-1945 they are very good quality.
Some parts are quite rusty due to being left outside but most were in a basement located near Seattle, WA and are brand new…. as in fresh out of their boxes!
I have loads of bearings and gears! 5 transmissions, 2 engine blocks, 2 transfer cases, 2 bell housings, 3 cylinder heads, 3 oil pans, 3 fly wheels, 1 crank shaft, 1 camshaft, 1 starter, 2 front axles, 1 rear axle, 6 pistons and so much more!!!!! MESSAGE ME!!!!”

UPDATE: Ray reported the following about this jeep: I spoke to the seller at length, and this was stretched on a military base and used as a tow vehicle. Its nice, has a lot of extra parts that go with it. Known problems – brakes need gone over, been driving on the farm with no brakes. Motor has a rod knock, sounds like lower engine problem. Rod, the seller, was very forthcoming and seemed very straight forward about it. They got new farm equipment so he wont be using the jeep on the farm any longer.
This 2A has been lengthened to 88″ and the gas tank is in the back. I’d really like to examine the frame. The lack of drain holes and fuel inlet on the driver’s side suggests there’s been at least some body work to this. As far as I know, there’s no documented prototype by Willys-Overland featuring a lengthened 2A, making this most likely some type of custom build. This does not look as stretched as the “CJ-2L”s that we’ve seen in the past, most (all?) of which were on the west coast.
