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 .
Needs work, but unclear what.

The weekend of March 25 & 26 is the Southwest Military Show in Mesa, Arizona. If you like plans and jeeps, this is a great place to be. As Joe points out below there will be more than a dozen jeeps and jeep-like vehicles.
Jerry forwarded this article from Massachusetts on a Jeep Wagoneer that’s been stuck in a collapsing shed by an unstable dune for forty years. Now, the property owners can finally remove it. I’m sure it’s in perfect shape, lol!

Just had it serviced, completely greased, new battery and tuned up last summer. Has a tow bar, no rust and it runs perfect. Sits in a heated garage upstate. ”

“Hello, I have four jeeps sitting in the garage to be finished, and one of the dusty projects has to go. This is a 1947 Willys Jeep that is NOT currently running but will not take much to get it there. Clean and clear Kansas title with a matching ID plate.
Issues:
-The jeep has run and driven recently with the previous owner, but it currently is not getting spark. The engine does turn with the starter/key and cranks and cranks and cranks, just no spark. So it is either the coil or the distributor rotor/points. From what I am seeing it looks like it needs a new distributor rebuild kit (points, cap, rotor) which is about $50. If it’s a coil that is about $35. But that’s just an educated guess
-It does not have active rust, but has had rust issues in the typical locations, but nothing that can’t be fixed. The floor under the tool box is gone (I usually weld or rivet some flat steel in), the front floors have been patched, and the bed has some holes that can be welded shut. Or just drive it the way it is, it is structurally very sound. Frame is strong. Continue reading

(02/01/2017) Looks in good shape.
“Up for sale is what I believe to be a model year 1943 Willys MB jeep body. I took it apart about 30 years ago as it was on a GPW Ford frame. It is original and in excellent condition for a 70+ year old, mass produced combat vehicle for the government. These were never made to be like a Porsche and had dents and scratches on delivery. Please note there is a puncture hole above the airfilter mounting bracket at the transition to the cowl. It looks like a small forklift fork hit it, but I don’t know. The rear floor (cargo area) was replaced when I got it.
UPDATE: Price dropped to $900.

“Clear title. Price is firm, I’m selling this for a friend named Barry. He inherited this after his father passed away. It’s a Ford GPW.
Date of delivery 3-3-43
Serial #100328 (matching frame and body)
Engine is MB225042 with the correct T84 tranny.
Barry states the Jeep hasn’t been ran in 3 years. Body has some bondo but is overall in pretty good shape. For $300 extra includes a brand new canvas top in the box from Surplus City Jeep Parts in CA.”
Looks solid.
“Okay, you’ve decided you want a classic Military Jeep but you don’t want to pay restored or Family Heirloom prices…
You’ve looked for a long time (off and on) but you just can’t quite put yourself in the right frame of mind with the right Jeep that fits your tight budget. You need to ask yourself, “Am I able to accept something that I can fix and or restore while I’m using it ?” or “Do I need to pay more for one that is all done?”. Most Flat Fender “wannabees” tend to be in the $5,000 to $12,000 range for a “Useable Driver” that doesn’t have major rust or body damage.
Here it is! It’s a “Runner Driver” that looks and acts the part. Granted, …it’s not perfect, but it really is better than most you’ve seen and it’s at a reasonable price.
The Jeep has an out of state Wisconsin title so you need to bring it up to date in the state of California.
Originally the Jeep cost over $11,000 so our loss is your gain. You better not pass on this one because it won’t last at this price.
The engine runs good and doesn’t smoke but the compression numbers are tired but not out of the game. Probably could use a valve adjustment, one valve taps when cold but diminishes as it warms up.”

Seth found this one. Not a jeep, but looks fun to me. Maybe it could pull a jeep? And, for you Bonanza fans out there, at one time this reportedly transported actors. You can see some other cars from the collection for sale here: http://www.papastoyscarcollection.com/–available-vehicles-for-sale.html. I looked through a number of photos on the site, but didn’t spot any jeeps.
“Small Block V8/ Powr Steering and Breaks/ Manual Transmission/ 6 cylinder
This car was used on the set of Bonanza to transport the actors. Great condition and a fun ride! Contact me for more information and additional pictures! We are selling it to downsize a private collection in Cornelius, Oregon. This would be incredible for winery tours in the area!
A little about the family collection:
This car is a part of the Papa’s Toys Car Collection located in Cornelius, Oregon. Started by John and Susan Davis in the 1980s, it was once of the largest collections in the Pacific Northwest of 180 street rods, classics, customs, race cars, and special interest vehicles ranging from the years 1922-1982. The collection is open to the public once a year where 100% proceeds go to Doernbecher Children’s Hospital. Our last show in May of 2016 raised $22,000 in a single day and over 700 other hot rods showed up to enjoy the day. Not a single car has ever been sold from the collection until March 2016 when Susan decided it was time to downsize the collection and to a more manageable number and let other people enjoy the cars. We decided to sell 124 cars from the collection and have sold 77 of that already to excited locals in the Portland area and around the United States. We are keeping about 50 cars and though we won’t have our large show once a year, we are discussing having a few smaller shows throughout the summer.”
