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.
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 $1800
Ann’s aunt spotted this for sale in Kennewick. These GTBs are unusual enough I thought I’d post it. It runs and goes forward.
Dave, aren’t these very low geared/low speed vehicles? In other words, even though they look very cool I imagine they’re much slower than a go-devil engined jeep (in regards to top speed), so you really couldn’t drive them on any public roads, could you?
Steve, I meant to answer you about this … The answer is I have never ridden in one. But, I could imagine they’d be built to crawl. I don’t believe there’s much practical use for them. That said, I’m sure there are a few public roads a driver could take that on around where I live. 🙂
This particular GTB looks like 25 MPH would be about tops. Actually these handle well with their short wheelbase and will run 50 MPH all day in good shape.. With the governor plate removed they wiil go 60 mph with their 6.66 rear ratio and 8.25x 20 tires quite well.
Many of the hard to locate parts seem to be missing on the pictured unit.
Thanks for the info BurmaBob!
Are these diesel? This is actually parked in a field about 3 blocks from my house. It keeps catching my eye every time I drive past.
They have a 6 cylinder Ford gasoline engine.
I have a Burma Jeep that I want to sell. Absolute excellent condition. Used by BLM as a fire truck and has a 4 cyl eng. with a high pressure pump on the back. I have no idea how to set the value and would like some help. Thank you.
John,
The demand for these is pretty low. The one above was relisted in December 2013 for $1800 and still hasn’t sold. There are two projects down in California that are available also.
I just looked and there are none available on eBay. I looked for some for sale via google and didn’t have much luck either.
You could test the waters using the MVPA site: http://www.mvpa.org/publications/classifieds/
Or you can list on eBay for what you want to sell if for and then accept bids/offers. That ought to give you a sense of what others value the vehicle at.
I’m happy to list it on eWillys, but I doubt this is quite the right market. I suspect you’ll have better luck via the MVPA or eBay.

Hi John
Could you send photos of the Burma to vhalftrack@aol.com
Thanks. Charlie
