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 on eBay
It is a project.
“You are bidding on an early script 1942 Ford GPW with a low serial number, under 8000 which makes it very rare. It is one of the few produced GPW on Willys frame. The vin on the frame matches the original data tag on glove box door. The frame is in excellent condition with original front gussets sill in place as well as the original rear crossmember. Original early axles are still on the jeep. The correct hood with an early style lube chard holder bracket is in place. The grill is also the correct flat top grill specific to the early jeeps. Original reflectors are also still there as well as the original script bumperettes. The engine bay is very complete with the exception of the voltage regulator. Most of the top bow brackets and grab handles are still on the jeep with original script bolts. Even the original style hood blocks are still in place. Jeep does have some rust in the usual places but is can be restored. I recommend that all interested parties come see the jeep in person before placing a bid. I do have a title for the jeep. If you are looking for a great project this is it. I also have a few NOS parts that will go with the jeep such as lights , blackouts etc.”
This looks to be a VEC body, but the back has been changed.
“1946 ? Willys CJ2A BODY. No title … I am selling just the body and 2 front clips… one steel front and one fiberglass front. back of body has been rebuilt/customized. small amount of rust in the floor. good rat rod hot rod or mud truck body. $500 for the body with both clips… will not split it up. may be open to some trades”

“M38-A1 military jeep. Repair/restorable condition. Needs transmission work. New brake system in original packaging to be installed by purchaser. Great for hunting vehicle or restoration.”

Dan spotted this. It’s not the prettiest on the outside, but does have an updated drivetrain.
“1955 Willys Station Wagon Chevy 350, Sm465 Gm 4 Speed gm transfer dana 44 Axles front disc brake and power steering, rancho suspension needs TLC 2000 ”

This comes with the HY-LO-JEEP pump.
“Snow plow with w/ hydraulic pump and controls for CJ2 A Willys Jeep. Blade is 6 1/2 feet. Pump, hydraulic controls, and chassis attachments still mounted. Blade is heavy duty. Buyer can assist in removal of pump and controls to learn how pump and controls are mounted.”
Dan spotted this wagon. It needs work, but doesn’t appear to have any major rust.
“1950 Willys “473 SW” Overland Wagon 2WD front transverse suspension.
283 V8 with Powerglide transmission from 50s Chevy (Engine runs)
Orignal paint. Chassis pillars and floors are solid all around. Body is very straight with some rust on door lower edges and tailgate.
Current title with black CA plates registerd non-op.
Has orignal steel rims included. Dash has all instuments complete. Chrome is there. Interior has most bits including seats and floor rails, all original.
Reminents of original head liner are there. 2 of the windows will need new glass.
This wagon will need suspension work, exhast system, wiring, and most likely brake work.
Good candidate for restoration, Assume this needs to be gone through completely to get on the road…
OR
Swap this body onto a K5 Blazer, Jeep Wagoneer or other modern running gear for a retro looking 4 wheeler.-no need to paint it!!!
Selling due to timing, needing room for other projects, and loss of interest by family member who it was purchased for. Jeep rims and tires shown in pics are included.
I can support local trailer delivery and am negotiable on price, throw your best reasonable offer at me.”

(12/11/2012) The tool box covers look MB to me.
“This jeep has an Arctic Cold Weather Insulated Cab with Heater – A RARE FIND!!
The engine is a 134 cid 4 cylinder flathead with new rings on standard bore.
Has 4 new wheel cylinders and master cylinder and new DOT5 silicone brake fluid
Has 12 volt alternator and battery
Engine starts and runs very well and holds 50 psi oil pressure and doesn’t’ overheat.
The grease seals have been replaced in transfer and front and rear differentials with new 90W
Replaced heat and fuel gauges and tank unit.
Has 5 combat wheels. Tires are weathered.
Repacked front and rear wheel bearings with new grease seals.
The Jeep body hasn’t been restored and needs hat channels under front floor. Also rust in the rear tool boxes.
All hoses and fan belt are new with anti-freeze in radiator. New water pump.
Has new fuel pump and tune up. All lights and horn work also. Has one electric wiper
Has new seat cushions front and rear.
The cab has cracks in one side window and right door; otherwise cab is solid
This is not a restored vehicle and still needs some body work, but is fun to drive and use as is
Has a good Oregon title. Hasn’t been licensed in several years. Has tow bar on front bumper.
The transmission, transfer and 4 x 4 shifts and works good
Would consider selling the arctic cab alone for $500. This would lower the price of the Jeep

I thought this trailer might interest someone.
“I bought this trailer several months ago with the intent of doing a factory restoration. But its cutout tailgate was perfect for hauling dirt, gravel and those occasional Saturday trips to the dumps. So that’s what I used it for, but now I no longer have any use for it.
Email me your phone number and we’ll talk. Otherwise, don’t bother. I’m not being an ass, just simply trying to avoid scammers and tire kickers.
– Current Registration to my name
– Stored indoors for 50 years based on info from the previous owner
– Tows great
– Solid body, no rusts or holes
– Solid frame
– Modern hitch welded to the frame, but can be cleanly removed
– Tail gate cut, but original panel was used
– Solid Military-style Kelsey Hayes rims
– Frame and underside of body have untouched and unpainted original OD paint
– Exterior body has been primered, but a quick pressure wash revealed the original OD and what looks like a surplus number painted in yellow
– Attempted to reveal the USA number, but stopped. I’ll let the new owner bask in that glory.”
UPDATE: Still Available
(10/17/2012) This ran a few years ago.
“Military Jeep (title reads “Ford”) circa World War 2. Kept dry and clean for the last 30 years,… but not before that, so it has, if better than most, typical rust issues. And we had it running just fine a few years back. $3,000 or trade for whatever. Tom, 201 406-5050.”

Roberto forwarded this link that appears to show the rebuilding of a wrecked M-151A2. My vietnamese is pretty weak (ok, non existent), so I have no idea what the thread’s text says.
