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 $19,500.

I am looking for a winter canvas top for a 1946 Ford GPW, do you have any idea where I can get one?
Thanks
Priscilla
Hi Priscilla,
If you have a GPW with the original windshield attachments, you can get a winter canvas top that fits through Beachwood Canvas: https://www.beachwoodcanvas.com/ This is the best top made.
There are also vinyl tops made by bestop and sold through dealers like Kaiserwillys.com

FYI: GPWs were produced until 1945. There were no 1946 GPWs. However, some military jeeps were sold and titled in 1946. I only bring this up to make sure that you get the right top. Feel free to email me at d@ewillys.com if you have additional questions.
