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 .
This is unusual.

I found this ad in what I think was a business directory of some kind. It looks like someone used their CJ-3B and their jeep-a-trench to make money. To get the logo removed from the image, you have to purchase the full resolution version from Historicalmapworks.com.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on ebay
This has 67 pages of jeeps parts.
“You are bidding on a vintage 1964 JEEP PARTS CATALOG. In used condition, the back cover has a wrinkled/torn corner. It has all its 67 pages.

I don’t see these with the box too often.

This looks good.
“This is a reserve auction for a 1942 Willys MB, serial number MB127011, date of delivery 11 March 1942. This Jeep was manufactured with a limited number of Jeeps after Willys started manufacturing WWII Jeeps with the “pressed grille” sheet metal type of front grille, (only 1202 by serial number). The earlier front grilles were the “slat grille” type (the last slat grille serial number was MB125809). This MB is a motorpool type restoration. When the Jeep was obtained by a prior owner there was already a mixture of MB and GPW parts on it. It is suspected that it was used on base at Camp Shelby, MS for years where the mixture of parts originated during on-base maintenance. The hood & bumper markings are in honor of the 124th Infantry Division (Dixie Division). The frame serial number is orginial. The glove box data plates are reproductions made by Robert de Ruyler at Dataplates4U.com. The T84 transmission, transfer case and rear axle are GPW componets. The orginial body was so shot that it was replaced with a repro body. The transmission and transfer case have been rebuilt and runs great. All bearings have been replaced in the axles as well as new brake cylinders, brake lines and brake shoes. The engine is a 1946 CJ2a L134 flat head that has also been rebuilt and runs great. The radiator is a CJ2a radiator. Included with the Jeep are, repro cloth top & frame, 5 repro combat wheels and tires, period dated gas can, shovel & axe, jack and tow rope. Receipts and photos of restoration are available if wanted. This vehicle is titled and tagged in Tennessee and will include a Bill of Sale”
The column shift is gone, but the hubs and tool indents are there.

UPDATE: Still Available
(08/25/2011) There’s some potential here. It looks like a panel delivery wagon to me; I wonder what people were calling it (see last sentence below). Bob and Dan both note it looks like a Parkway.
“1959 willys Panel delivery Wagon this is rare, see plenty of wagons but not panel delivery, it’s had a life but plenty left in it, would make a grate restoration project or use as is will probably need the gas tank flushing as its been stud since the distributor broke, it has some rot in the wheel arches and some dings but other than that its quite good, it also has a heavy duty winch that goes with, its sold with a bill of sale $1,500 406 250 7003 because of idiot scammers mention flathead lake in your mail.
Apparently people feel the need to corect me on what this willys is, what you see is what you get when you own it you can call it what ever you like pannel delivery is what it states on the vin plate thanks.”

This jeep is apart.
“i have a 1946 jeep willys. it is currently taken apart for rebuilding purposes. i do not have a title but it is easily obtained so i will write a bill of sale. i have 2 tubs. One i fixed up and replaced all of the rusted through spots, the other being a donor tub for brackets and such. The frame and axles were sprayed with primer recently. I have new parts to put the chassis together. I have the original t-90 transmission and spicer 18 twin stick transfercase. I do not have the original 4 cylinder engine because i was doing a v8 swap with a 302. i also have the rest of the body (hood, grill, ect.) along with the oringinal 4 tires/rims. Im a busy student and have no time out of my studies to complete this project. It would be a fairly simple rebuild if you have experience in mechanics. All in all this would make a sweet project if you have the mechanical knolwege. i would like to get $1000 out of it but would be open to reasoable offers.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000.

When I was a kid I drug one of these all over our property.
“Here is a vintage lot of three, vintage Tonka red DUNE BUGGIES from the early 1970’s. Made of steel.
Not mint, but good condition given their age. They measure about 10 inches long by 8 inches wide. All the tires spin freely and have their nut caps on the wheels. All have their stickers. All have their steering wheels. One is missing a headlight and that one has some paint wear and sticker/label peeling”

Steve spotted this photo on a Cragislist ad. I’m just not sure about the wisdom of putting kids under the jeep. Sure, mostly likely nothing will happen . . .
I’m not sure if this is a toy or a collectible. It’s new. I’m pretty sure that’s not a forty foot flatcar.

Seller believe 4wd not working. Looks in good shape.
“A very original condition truck! Lived on an apple orchard in Ct. since 1967. Odometer reads 95k. Its a 6 cylinder with a 3 speed transmission. Overall condition is good. Truck will need some body work on the cab corners. Interior is in good shape. It comes with a plow. Runs good, drives, plenty of power, 4wd not working but transfer case and front drive shaft are spinning when engaged. New baby, no time to fix truck. I can’t see letting it fade away in the barn!”

UPDATE: I have added additional pics. Is this a holden? This has been sold.
There appears to be value here.
“1942 Ford GPW army jeep. I bought this jeep 6 years ago. it has no title but i will give a receipt. Wanted to restore or simply make a toy for 4-wheeling but times are tough. I bought a new carb, oil pump, fuel pump, and some other stuff. Needs lots of work like a radiator and gas tank and much more as you can see. I started it a few years back and it smoked like a train but no knocking so I beleive the motor is rebuildable. I beleive it has a nissan transfer case which I understand is in high demand.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $800
