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 .
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.

I’ve owned this jeep for three years, purchased from a filmmaker/collector here locally who has several willys. I’m not sure how long he had it prior, but I got the distinct impression he’s committed to these vehicles. He has specific shops in Treadwell and Morris that he trusts to work on these (Morris is an hour away from here, which says something.)
I could not speak with certainty on the engine being original– I do know he had it machined and tuned just prior to my acquisition. The carb was also rebuilt.
The brakes seem to be in good condition. The top is in good condition minus a couple chips in the rim. All glass is in good condition (the side windows do not roll down). There is no handle on the passenger door.
The floor pans had been repaired in the past– plates added– they’re adequate but it could be prettier. There are a few rust holes. The toolbox is pretty rusty and has a few holes.
The frame looks good.
It has most certainly been repainted– I couldn’t say what the original color was.
New battery this spring. The wiring needs the turn signals and brake lights sorted out.
Runs very well and strong. Front wheel 4WD locks move well without a tool.
I deregistered it last year as I was fundamentally using it on the farm (to move firewood, and rarely) and didn’t want to pay insurance. I have the papers for easy transfer.
Quite simply, this jeep has gotten little use since I got it– housed in the barn, battery changed, rewiring started, oil changed. I’d keep it if we didn’t need to cover some unexpected expenses.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4250.
Has the wrong grille for a 1950. Also has a BIG fuel tank.
“Runs good. Smog exempt. Stock with the exception of it has a 47 gal fuel tank…has current Calif. License. Original paint great patina”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4750.
(11/12/2014) Looks solid.
“Autovison is a family owned and operated dealership providing quality used cars and trucks since 1997. We are located just minutes north of McKinney.”
UPDATE: Status Unknown. Was $9500.
(10/10/2014) It doesn’t have the column shift, but does have other early elements. It is #11653.
“Ive got to sell my beautiful 1945 Willys CJ2A to make room for my side by side. Original 4 cal 6V civilian model 1st year they were built. It has been in car shows and paradise and also around the hills around Mesquite. Green with yellow wheels was the original color, pretty wild for 1945. It will take you about anywhere you want to go and always puts a smile on everybody’s face. A lot of fun and in great shape”
UPDATE:**SOLD** Was $24,000
Has matching numbers.
“One is a 1942 WW2 Jeep. It is Model GPW built by Ford and identical in every way to the Willys Model MB. Both Ford and Willys shared the WW2 production of 500,000 Jeeps almost equally. Ford had a policy of identifying virtually all of their parts including Bolts with the Ford script “F”. Because of this, a complete and original GPW will usually sell for a higher price than the comparable Willys. My GPW is serial number 10,100. Simply stated this is a very early WW2 Jeep and the 10,100th Jeep produced of a total Ford production of approximately 250,000 Jeeps. It was completed on March 25, 1942. The date is engraved on the original Ford data plate on the Glove box door.
The body, floors and all metal are in excellent condition. There is no rust. The Jeep has been garaged since I’ve owned it. Have Top/bows.
The engine is original and is engraved GPW 10,100 on the block. The Frame is also engraved GPW 10,100.
The Jeep cranks and starts like it should. It is a good driver as well.
The Jeep has a gun mount for a 30 cal Browning MG. I have the Browning MG which is made from a Browning parts kit. It is correct in appearance, size and weight. The guts of the MG have been modified so the MG will not fire. The MG is not a Live gun. It is for display.”
UPDATE: *SOLD* Was listed at $2700.
(07/28/2014) Looks like the floor is patched a little, but may be worth a look at this price.
“1946 cj2a jeep willy got the jeep last year runs and drives but had a bent frame . I bought a nother frame no time to put back together. Have all parts but will need to be put back together. Great winter project. Looking for ???“
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
