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: Sold. Was listed at $750.
Looks like a good price. Brewster is in Eastern Washington north of Chelan on why 97.

“MAKE ME AN OFFER!

Here is a pretty detail list of work I have done to it already.
Rear seat and military spare tire do not go with it, they belong in another jeep of mine.

I’ll do some updates later tonight.
Here’s a photo of Biscuit, undressed and packed away in the garage. The next step is to hang the motor and tranny in the frame so I can install the new motor mounts. I’m hoping to get that configured before leaving tomorrow.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay
“You are bidding on a 1942 Ford GPW. This is a very early production script “FORD” jeep with a serial number of “I7743″ which would put it around April of 1942. The jeep does run, drive, and stop from an auxiliary fuel can. The jeep does have a clear Idaho title that matches a vin that was stamped in the cowl.”
Walter spotted this. It seems longer than a 150 and shorter than a 170. I’m gonna go with 150.
“This jeep was running last year. My grandpa passed away and now I cant crank it. Needs work”

UPDATE: This has been relisted on eBay
(11/15/2013) Zack spotted this unusual find: A MB Desk. I could very easily see myself writing at such a desk. I think I’m gonna have to build a version of it.
“This Jeep Desk is modeled from a WW 2 Willys. It has a real grill, headlight buckets, black out lights and dash plaque. The paint is authentic Lusterless Olive Drab. The invasion star is painted with a flat white. The fenders are an exact copy and are made of wood. The hood is also an exact copy but made of metal.”

Craig writes, “This was the Midnight Drive-away program that happened at the conclusion of the 1959 Chicago Auto show.There was a little written article about the event but it was pieced together and not easily scanned.”
Check out more photos at Craig’s “Dealership News Pieces” Page.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
Marc found these parts for sale.
“Parts or bid on the whole jeep was running. About 5 years ago. Tranny is. Gone. This. Red one is A 6 cylinder. There are still many hard to finds useable parts left on this jeep. I’m just listing this for. 4 days. It’s just a shame to send this to a scrap yard please E-mail me if you have any question thanks”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000.
This sure looks like a nice, rust free Wagoneer.
“I regretfully must sell my truck, I am in college and can’t afford to take it back with me after thanksgiving. No reasonable offer will be refused. This truck runs and drives well. I put about 2 grand into fixing it up. Now I know why I am broke. I have documentation of work done. Has a new exhaust system from midas and under warranty among many other improvements. I have driven this truck 150 miles non stop from Alexandria to Harrisonburg many a time and has yet to fail me. I have put about 2,500 miles on it since it bought it. Of course its not perfect and has its old car issues, but nonetheless, it moves and stops when you want it to. Nothing screams sex more than a 15 foot long, 5,000 pound, carbureted beast of years past. may consider trade for a running vehicle.
This vehicle is currently registered and insured and was safety inspected in August 2013, has Alexandria windshield tax decal and finally a clear Virginia title in my name. Exempt from annual emissions inspection!Take the keys (and title) and drive away!

(07/18/2013) Rare KEMCO top?
“1948 Willy’s Jeep CJ2, KEMCO All-steel cab w/bucket attachment, new glass, converted to 12V,new battery, rebuilt alternator, new regulator, new gas tank, cab heater, chains, heavy duty handyman jack, spare tire and 3 extra rims, tow bar, manuals and books. Good tires. I am selling this for an elderly friend that has owned this jeep for a long time. He has been working on the restoration and it ran before he started working on the new components. The jeep has been in the garage most of its life, so the body is pretty solid. Will make someone a fun toy.
Looks like a good price. Double check that the hub holes are large enough for the jeep. No pics provided.
“Set of 4 15 inch 5 X 5.5 inch BIG BOLT Ford bolt pattern . Need paint. $100 or make offer.
Richie
Cell (Seven Three Two)500-5000”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5100.
The body appears sound.
“1948 Willys Jeep 4 x 4. Great rust free body; partially restored with many maintenance parts (have all the receipts). All original sheetmetal and in great shape. Low miles. Available anytime to show it. Please respond with your contact info”
Looks like a nice roll cage.
“This is an original 1947 Jeep Willy body (I may be wrong on the year, I do know it’s in the mid 1940’s though). It has been sitting on the property for years and will never become a project for us. It’d be great to see someone build this beauty. As you can see from the pics it has some gauges, original fold down windshield, among other things. I didn’t bother cleaning it up to show because if you’re looking for a project like this that wouldn’t make any difference anyway. Also have the frame for it too. It was attached, but to move it down here from WA it had to be separated. The frame isn’t included in this add because we may try to sell it seperately unless someone makes a reasonable offer for both. Asking $750 for the body/obo. If you are interested or would like to see it you can text or call me anytime at 623-565-1892, my name is Don (text works best for me).”
