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**

“New top and ave all the receipts for all the work that has been done. Is the second owner. No rust is stored inside.”
UPDATE: This is now on eBay was listed for $3999 on Craigslist.
(07/17/2012) The seller notes that this is in great original condition. It looks solid and while there is lots of original jeep here, the drain holes have been plugged and it appears from the pictures that the front and lower sides have been painted differently than the rear portion of the body. I suspect there has been some body work done.

The seller has some thorough pictures of this jeep.
“Up for auction is a 1951 unrestored, all original, M38 Willys Army Jeep. I have had this M38 for about 9 years. I bought it from a collector in Southern California. Since I got the Jeep it has been stored in my garage. Initially I drove it around town and it ran great. Then I decided to repaint it and let it sit too long without driving it and the leather parts in the carburetor dried out so it would only idle. Then I decided to replace the fuel tank and never had time to finish the project. I am self-employed so free time is hard to find.
This is a nice Jeep but it would benefit from a full restoration. There is some rust at the Hat Channels below the Jeep. That is all I could ever find. It does look like the driver side and passenger side floors were replaced. They are not rusted but they don’t look original to me. I did repalce the front brake cylinders, brake shoes and the Master Cylinder. The tires and tubes were purchsed new about 3 1/2 years ago. They have never been driven on. The Jeep has been stored on jack stands so the Jeep hasn’t been sitting on them either, except for when I took these pictures. I bought new seats years ago but never installed them. it has a full soft top and all of the rods and supports. I think there was a tear in the top along one of the sides. It has the soft doors as well.
The fuel tank is new, as is the sending unit, fuel cap, fuel filler neck and any other fuel tank related parts. The front hubs were rebuilt. I also have an antenna bracket and antenna set which was never installed. The Jeep is 12 volt. I also have all of the available DOD manuals, as well as a few other after market manual and the Military Jeep Restoration DVD video set.”
UPDATE: This sold quickly.
“I have a 1949 CJ3A Jeep that I am selling for a friend. The Jeep runs well and the body is solid. The tires are like new,good brakes and has been recently upgraded to a 12 volt Delco altenator. Comes with a 6′ full hydraulic snowplow that is all hooked up and ready for winter. Michigan titled.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay
This looks good.
“This is a reserve auction for a 1942 Willys MB, serial number MB127011, date of delivery 11 March 1942. This Jeep was manufactured with a limited number of Jeeps after Willys started manufacturing WWII Jeeps with the “pressed grille” sheet metal type of front grille, (only 1202 by serial number). The earlier front grilles were the “slat grille” type (the last slat grille serial number was MB125809). This MB is a motorpool type restoration. When the Jeep was obtained by a prior owner there was already a mixture of MB and GPW parts on it. It is suspected that it was used on base at Camp Shelby, MS for years where the mixture of parts originated during on-base maintenance. The hood & bumper markings are in honor of the 124th Infantry Division (Dixie Division). The frame serial number is orginial. The glove box data plates are reproductions made by Robert de Ruyler at Dataplates4U.com. The T84 transmission, transfer case and rear axle are GPW componets. The orginial body was so shot that it was replaced with a repro body. The transmission and transfer case have been rebuilt and runs great. All bearings have been replaced in the axles as well as new brake cylinders, brake lines and brake shoes. The engine is a 1946 CJ2a L134 flat head that has also been rebuilt and runs great. The radiator is a CJ2a radiator. Included with the Jeep are, repro cloth top & frame, 5 repro combat wheels and tires, period dated gas can, shovel & axe, jack and tow rope. Receipts and photos of restoration are available if wanted. This vehicle is titled and tagged in Tennessee and will include a Bill of Sale”
UPDATE: Last listed at $2500. **Status Unknown**
(05/29/2012) I rarely come across these. It’s in good shape, too.
“1960 Jeep Willys truck, with utility body. rebuilt Hurricanse engine, 36,000 original miles. original owner. Frame rebuilt, little rust, new brakes, plow set up and plow available. Last inspected 2010, needs little work. Please email for more details.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $29,000. It appears to have a column shift.
“This 1946 Willys Jeep, Ser. # 13241 has been totally restored to new condition and I have the old parts. It has no miles, I have taken to shows on a trailer. I am 78 and get my kicks from building/restoring, not driving. I will sell or trade for a newer model Wrangler or Rubicon, V/6, auto with low miles of like value.”
Seller believe 4wd not working. Looks in good shape.
“A very original condition truck! Lived on an apple orchard in Ct. since 1967. Odometer reads 95k. Its a 6 cylinder with a 3 speed transmission. Overall condition is good. Truck will need some body work on the cab corners. Interior is in good shape. It comes with a plow. Runs good, drives, plenty of power, 4wd not working but transfer case and front drive shaft are spinning when engaged. New baby, no time to fix truck. I can’t see letting it fade away in the barn!”
