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 .
This includes a rear PTO and drum pulley. It also has the governor handle, but not the linkage on the engine.

“All original 1946 Willy’s Jeep with rare working original PTO. Needs battery, starter, spark plug wires, and carburetor. Everything else is there including rear bench seat. $1000 worth of brand new correct tires. Restore, or enjoy summer fun as-is.”
Has an MB type seat. I think it’s missing more than he said like in the air cleaner radiator hoses and maybe the pedals?
the rear pto and drum is PRICELESS !! — so $3500 is not a bad deal — I assembled the rear pto and drum on my willys model 4wd jeep truck awhile back — 2 piece pto driveshaft — it all worked , the bigger driveshaft was wobbling slightly — now if I could find the belt-driven buzz saw ?
Probably even more going on with the engine with a sparkplug sitting like that.
Brad … good point. It appears someone was checking for something in the engine.
Dave … Yeah, that was my feeling, too. Looks like the entire exhaust system is missing.
Vernon … I too figured the PTO, etc, was the true value here.
Lots of MB (or GPW) parts: both seats are only 3 section back (WWII), this has B.O. markers and B.O. drive with tombstone bracket!, side and corner handles, WWII windscreen (or modified to look like one), and even inset headlights to appear more WWII-ish (albeit in a 7-slot grill). I even see an oil bath air cleaner down in there, but no carb nor fuel strainer nor…
BTW STA tires are only $125 each new… so $500 for the 4 he replaced (not $1000)… and why is the right front worn/rounded on the outside tread if these are new?
All that considered, could still be worth asking, but I wouldn’t want to deal with the rust/rot: I’m getting spoiled here in Arizona.
Joe, I’m surprised to see this much rot out of a Nampa vehicle. It’s pretty dry there, too (not Phoenix basin dry, but a desert just the same).
The grill assembly is from an M38A1
