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: Price dropped to $3000.

Texted him about these. They are not in Astoria. They are in Toledo WA for now. Suppose to get back with me with photos.
Thanks Dennis. I thought you might find that ad interesting.
Another example of someone who has absolutely no clue how to chain a jeep down to a trailer.
the one jeep has a full floating rear diff and a non stock steering wheel. could it be a real early jeep with the Hudson steering conversion? hmmmm
The green one is a ’45 or early ’46…… Also has the early MB conversion windshield frame..
Keeps posting that they are in Astoria. I’ll give him a call later to see if he moved them yet.
Looked at these today also. Green one is a ’46, Vin # is 47,xxx. Body is rotted. Axles I believe were added later. Weird overload springs on the rear. Really butchered. Maybe good for parts. Maybe.
Orange one is in good shape. Has a reissued Vin #. Rear floor was raised and gas tank put under. Said he drove this onto the trailer.
They are located now in Knappa, just outside of Astoria.
Dennis, if those rear floating hubs are original, it could be a 1945 VEC (As Michael pointed out). Thanks for the update!
Full floating rear axles were used up to roughly Serial # 13,5xx. The green Jeeps Serial # is 47,xxx
