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: **Status Unknown** Was $12,500

The fiberglass hood on this flattie is just like the one I had on my first jeep. This is only the third one I’ve seen. … Or, this is built from my first jeep. It does have the DJ-5 tank in the rear along with the outboard rear springs. However, the cage, and body are different.

Seller listed this under a price of $15,000, but it doesn’t sound like they are serious about that price.

“F head 4cylinder jeep . It ran last i used it so unless I get some time I might have to drop the price. This is not road worthy it is just a plow rig. and the plow rigging needs … help. But it worked this way for me. Latest update: No spark , no power to fuel pump. this jeep needs time that I dont have so start the bidding. the hydrolick ram should be worth something.”

Roberto Flores has these two new mini-canvases for sale. Contact him at robflores@robertoflores.com.
He also gave some context on the MB canvas. He wrote,
“The Willys MB is the jeep of capitaine Raymond Dronne, commanding officer of “La Nueve” or 9th company III Battaillon Régiment de Marche du Tchad, 2nd Free French armored division Leclerc, or 2éme DB Leclerc. Most of the them of this elite unit were Spaniards ex-Republican soldiers, who fought as mounted infantry in half-tracks. The history behind these men was incredible. Some years ago I had the chance to write with some of them and at least visit one of them at France, were I realized the sacrifice they paid for a better world. This unit, “La Nueve”, called in Spanish because the number of Spanish volunteers soldiers who formed it, was the first to entered Paris in 24th August 1944, with several M4 medium Shermans from 501e RCC and another support vehicles (I think 3 half-tracks) from an engineer unit of the 2éme DB.”
You can see the Raymond Dronne character at the 2:09 mark in this film by Renné Clement!
Here’s an interesting flyer for the DJ-3A Mail Jeep Circa 1955.
“Here I have a Single Sheet Flier for the Willys Jeep mail Dispatcher from 1955. This has some wear and a small tear on the bottom (See Scans) but still displays Very nicely. Will ship in a protective Sleeve with backing board.”

Craig spotted this nice looking wagon.
“1950 Willys wagon, 2 wheel drive, mostly original, v8, automatic, great driver. Garage kept, no rust, excellent running condition. Have some fun.”

“Awesome 1948 Willys Jeep, rebuilt engine, recent tuneup, 4 cyl Go Devil engine, 3 speed manual transmission, runs and drives great, perfect for the beach or ranch.”
http://slo.craigslist.org/cto/5731409727.html
I agree with the seller. This could be a good deal for the right person.
“Selling my 1947 Willys Overland station wagon. All original with 4 cylinder motor and manual 3-speed transmission. The transmission is a factory overdrive. THIS VEHICLE IS COMPLETE AND ORIGINAL BUT DOES NOT RUN AND SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A PROJECT. Body is in fair condition. Needs new gas tank and fuel lines, master cylinder and all brake lines, brake shoes and wheel cylinders. Also needs new clutch and new suspension rubber parts. The engine does not run and the transmission and rear end are not tested. The engine rotates freely but has several broken stud bolts. Wagon is 2 wheel drive from the factory. All components are original from the factory. Title is clear for CA and non-op. Great opportunity for the right buyer.”
http://inlandempire.craigslist.org/cto/5726557735.html
This may be worth a look. Appears to have a little rust on the passenger side front fender (front lip).
“Have you ever wanted dad or grandfathers old Jeep. Well folks here is one great example of one.
The jeep has less than 55,000 lightly used miles. The body is in near perfect shape, floor pans, body support brackets and the rest is rust free. The engine is a 225 Buick V6, 3 speed transmission and has the Warn overdrive. There also is a PTO winch that works nice. Paint is not to bad, a little dulled by the sun. Jeep runs and drives, every thing functions as it should less the horn. The jeep did not come with a full top. We only have a bikini top. I have several options of full tops and soft top if you wish to has one on it. I love the openness of no top. Look at the pictures close, only call if your a buyer. Tire kicker and scammer need not waist our time. Post will be deleted when jeep has sold.”
