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 .

It seems the Americans waited until after they landed in France to start teaching some of the GIs how to speak French. Lacking blackboards, they turned to the underside of a jeep hood. The following Fox Movietone silent video clip is a collection of outtakes. The blackboard lesson begins at the 16:22 mark and lasts about a minute.

This includes an overdrive. Could be worth a look.
“1966 Kaiser Jeep CJ6 with Dauntless V6 and 3 speed tranny with Warn overdrive. Jeep is in decent shape with some rust on the tailgate hinge area and front panels. One of the front fenders is damaged pretty bad. The frame and undercarriage is in surprisingly good shape with minimal rust. The jeep has been in our family for 30 years and my uncle did several mods. One- he changed out the steering wheel for a tilt one out of an older Buick, Two- he added a combo light set on the rear instead of the single one, and replaced the seats with something more comfortable. It doesn’t use any oil and has a newer alternator and fuel tank, and I also have the cushions for the rear jump seats. The back seat needs work on the back section, but the jump cushions are in great shape. To my knowledge everything works, including the heater, gauges, 4 wheel drive, stereo. I take it to work occasionally, so it’s very drivable but the brake technology is 50 years old. It also has the tow bar on the front, so transporting it to your favorite trail is much easier. This isn’t a fire sale and the listed price is close to our bottom, so I won’t respond to lowballers. I have a clean CO title and will answer any questions you might have. Thanks for looking.”

The truck be worth a look. It might surprise you, but I’m not a fan of the Wounded Warrior Project. Example 1, Example 2, Example 3 … that’s apart from the fact that when Ann, my combat wounded wife, learned about a local fishing trip and asked if she could go, the WWP told her she couldn’t. Why? Because they don’t support veterans before 2001. However, they are NOT clear about that fact in their advertising.
“1951 Willys Jeep Pickup
Original engine professionally rebuilt in the fall of 2014. Body and frame was worked on in 2012 as a Wounded Warrior Project.

There’s value here.
“This is a 1942 Willys Jeep in really nice condition for being so old. I don’t know a whole lot about it. It has a lot of original parts still. It was given to a General Richardson after WWII. I am asking $2,000 obo. I have the title and is ready to be transferred to you. This would be a great project jeep. ”

The October 26, 1943, Fox Movietone featured a one minute clip about a Toledo, Ohio, Fire Jeep. It appears to be built on a Willys MB Slat Grille. The clip appears at the 6:53 mark of the video. I managed to get a few still images:
