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 looks like a solid build.

“I have a 1947, Willys flat fender 4×4 Jeep that ,due to circumstance, I am looking to trade toward a great running, registerable, vehicle, of equall value.

My Willys has a new paint job, dana 44’s, rancho suspension(front&back), fiber-glass tilt front end, roll cage, full tow package, power breaks, power steering, and more… I Hate to part ways with our jeep, but, a girls gotta do, what a girls gotta do”
UPDATE: Price raised to $3400
(12/04/09) This looks in great shape for the price.
“Neat little Jeep…fun to drive…V-6 – 3 spd – 4×4 works good – Clutch, transmission & brakes good. It hasn’t been abused or rusted out & I haven’t found any bondo repairs.
I have another project and need room in my garage. My loss – your gain. This is probably the best buy for the money in Oklahoma City. I might consider a pick-up as a trade, but nothing needing paint or repairs. I don’t need another project. Tom … 405-722-0818 or Cell: 405-606-9515.”

Gerald sent me a pic of the Jeep Truck Rod below. After some searching, I found some others. There’s a great thread with various Jeep Rod photos as well, one of which I show below. I suspect this is the first of several Jeep Rods Posts as I suspect other pics will pop up based on the few searches I did this evening.
Here’s a pic from the Jalopy Journal Site:

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5800.
It looks nice. The seller must sell quickly.

Given this isn’t complete, it’s priced a bit high. If it really was a Navy Dept vehicle, it makes me wonder if this was packaged as a M-606?
