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 .

Rudy’s selling this rare purpose-built APU on a jeep chassis.
“Very Rare 1953 limited production 4X4 specially built for the U.S Military by O.E Szekely and Associates. This is an all aluminum body, tub, fenders, and hood so theres no cost for rust rot work and repair . Dual Aluminum gas tanks so theres no need to worry about rusted out tanks. The Chassis is Jeep. The engine is a Lincoln (ford) 317 V8. This is not Frankensteined, this is the original way it was built for the Navy to jump start, run system checks, and tow jets. Do not have the generator equipment. does not run and is for restoration or customize purposes. As is where is. Unique, rare and easily bad ass potential. Add seats, swap motor, take the paint off and pollish the aluminum body, run through the chassis. pink on hand. first $3600 obo takes it.”
This photo shows one of these “in action”

My husband passed away 4 months ago. He was ill for a year and was not able to tinker with the Jeep as he normally did. He originally was asking more money for it, but I need to move it and I am asking $10,0000, but I am willing to negotiate on the price.
Car was started a few weeks ago, but I didn’t want to run it but a short time so it didn’t mess up Carb.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $799.
(01/29/2017) Looks in good shape.
“I have an old Jeep Willys body for sale, don’t know much about it, it does have rust, figured it would make a cool rat rod like pictured or a great military looking re-build. Even perfect for a kids bed, many possibilities. No title,
Just is what you see in the pics, I have a friend that has a hood and grill that would probably work out depending on what your building. ”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $20,000.
I think the price rules it out as a “perfect father and son project”. Seller doesn’t mention it has a replacement body. It will take more than a few hundred to bring this up to “showroom ready”.
“This willy’s only needs a few more hundred spent on it to become showroom ready, all of the original fixtures are present, including the 6 volt battery. The Vin is buried under a weld on the rt. front bumper strut and it needs a front steering strut kit to even up the steering, runs like a pip with all working lights bells and dials. This would make an ideal father& son project. Here are some of the extras built in…
brand new Kaiser shocks, a re-built carburetor, new U joints, suspension and brakes. 4 brand new 1940’s style 4×4 tire’s, with 2 original tires spare.
Work invoice for other fixed parts available upon request at email.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $500.
Seller provided a variety of pics.
“I am cleaning out the garage and would like to sell all of the following parts together:
Dana 41 complete with drum brakes
Front drum brakes and Hubs off of a dana 25
Master cylinder
2 6 volt starters
6 volt generator
6 volt voltage regulator

Glass bowl Fuel Pump
Carburetor WO
Fuel tank with cap
6 volt distributor with Pertronix electronic ignition conversion
6 volt Pertronix Flame thrower coil

Maybe some parts value?

Jack shared this one. May just be a parts rig.
“1946 Jeep Willies Complete Truck in good restorable condition”
Maybe some value in the chassis.
“All for 400$ No title body rough and will part out.”
