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 .

(03/28/2015) “This is a restored M170 Willys Ambulance as a troop transport. Comes with an M101 3/4 ton dump trailer as well – been using it in military parades Bandera/Utopia area. Time to move on to something else. Powerful – engine rebuilt, along with tranny, transfer case, wheel seals, etc. New exhaust, everything works except emergency brake. All there just not hooked up. Good canvas, have the doors, new seat pads in the back, no rust to speak of. Very rare, extended wheel base and not the “tip over” typical M38A1. Would make an excellent vehicle to transport hunters to blinds.”
UPDATE: Was on eBay, but ad pulled.
(11/02/2014) Here’s a rare former rescue wagon.
“1958 Willy’s delivery Wagon. I’ve owned this vehicle since 1991. It had 800 miles on it when I bought it from the Warroad Mn. Fire dept. where it was used as a rescue vehicle. Not many folks to rescue I guess. It now has 21,000 miles on it. It has the original Warn winch. I had the overdrive installed shortly after I purchased it. I have much of the original literature for it. I recently had a complete new wiring harness installed. It runs great. The only thing that doesn’t work at the moment is the windshield wipers. The interior is very utilitarian”
This really is a survivor. Maine isn’t usually so kind.
“Very minor rust, very straight. Power steering leaks a bit. I have the original compass that was on the dash that still works. Interior needs to be redone. I have some of the door panels and the original headliner is still in place. Car was originally Amber metallic. I painted it an original Willys parkway green and have some paint that I will include.please ask any questions before bidding. Mileage is unknown.”

“For sale is my 1942 GPW, serial #16501, DOD 4/8/42
Jeep is about 95% restored, 100% cosmetic restoration with a few mechanical issues to resolve. Ready for whatever final markings you decide.
I bought this jeep from a friend’s dad that purchased it from the Gov’t post war, so I guess I’m the 3rd owner, I’ve owned it since 1993. In the early 2000’s I started a restoration. In 2004 I had the transmission and transfer case rebuilt , (At that time I purchased an overdrive with PTO that I did not install that is also for sale). In 2005 (after my 4th kid was born), I took the jeep to two jeep buffs for restoration. They both live near me in Northern Ca.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3900.

(06/18/2014) Good looking CJ-3B.
“Engine rebuild included: new pistons and rings, machined the crank and cam, new oil pump, all new seals, and new lifters.Issues: I had this on the road last year and it drove good and climbs any thing pretty much. I have struggled with it overheating and one of the new oil lines needs replaced in order to drive it. The radiator had been checked and cleaned but I believe the overheating could be due to the radiator. So the jeep still needs some work done to it but you will love it once it has some TLC.Body: In amazing shape. It has some minor surface rust but no holes throughout the body.
