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 .
Mark has this GPW at war jeeps.com. The same seller is selling the jeep in the post below, too.

This appears pretty stock. It will probably restore pretty nicely.
“Serial number is 35945. Odometer shows 36,262 miles and I am told that this is original mileage. Has been garaged for many years. All original. Clear title. Used to tool around the mountains of Southwestern Colorado. Good running condition. Four wheel drive works well in both high and low range. Since it has been in Colorado all its life, no rust problems. Has been repainted.
After it came out of storage, I had the following repairs done to it to return it to a safe driving condition;
Good tires, also has three other tires and wheels. Has two sets of doors with hardware. One set is original. Has the back cover. Comes with owners manual, mechanics manual and two boxes of extra parts. Has Warn locking hubs.
A true classic that has not been messed with or altered !”

UPDATE: Still Available
(04/11/2012) This might make a nice stock build candidate.
“1947 Willys Jeep CJ

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000.
I suspect that if you invest $37,500 worth of work and parts this might just be worth $38,500 by the time it is done.
“I have a 1960 FC 150 Jeep for sale. It is a jeep pickup that was produced in the late 50’s and 60’s. FC stands for Forward Control due to the cab being placed over the front wheels. It had a small pickup bed on the back originally. There are FC clubs and forums for these fun rare trucks and a lot of aftermarket parts are available. I also purchased an old military dump bed that is shaped a lot like the original bed and it will be included with the truck along with a 12 volt hydraulic pump. I haven’t done anything with this truck since I purchased it other than storing it and getting a title, so I don’t know the condition of the drivetrain. I didn’t get a front or rear driveshaft with it so I never tried to make it run. The frame is a regular cj type frame other than the weight bolted into the rear for stability so cj driveshafts would work. 4 wheel drive with lockout hubs and a 134 4 cylinder engine.”
So nicely decorated . . . It is listed as a 53, but has the CJ-2A front bow holder.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1200.
It’s been chopped, but runs and drives. Might make a good Tour FC replica . . .
“It runs and drives, missing the bed, doors, and I chopped off the rusted out cab cover. I have gone through the brakes and put a new clutch in it but the clutch it not releasing properly. Cool old truck but I have too much sitting around so it needs to go”
The top isn’t in good shape.

This is another story about a jeep from the Gus and the Model Garage series published in Popular Science Monthly. This particular article was published in June of 1955. In this story Gus learns about the oil float in the old Willys motors.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
Here’s an unusual item. The auction ends in a few hours.
“This auction is for a Original US Field Phonograph from the WWII era. It has typical damage on the outside from use in the field. Since condition is relative please look at the pictures provided. It is complete and plays. Great sound! The arm is a little sticky as it goes across the record but could be easily fixed, Probably just needs lubed. These were issued to combat units by the Special Services Division to build morale amongest the troops. This look great in a Living History or Reenactment.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay. Has an unusual dash.
“PLEASE THIS IS MY SECOND TIME LISTINOriginal Willy Jeep. No reserve auction. 3 speed manual. The car runs and drives. This Jeep was restored in the early 90s. It comes with 2 mechanics books for the specific model which will help if restoring.This was the last year Willy made the Jeeps. It still has the original 6 cylinder Buick engine. Do your history homework. This Willy is more than just a classic its a piece of USA car history. Feel free to call me with any questions. Anthony 917-709-0498. Any one with negative or zero feed back will have to contact me before bidding or your bid will be deleted. Will help ship world wide at buyers expense. Good luck.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay
This is unusual and in good shape.
“GAZ-69 took the place of GAZ-67B in 1953 and remained on assembly line till 1972 practically without changes. First cars have been produced in Gorkiy city (before 1930 and right now – Nizhniy Novgorod). Then, in December of 1954 production of GAZ-69 has began in Ulianovsk, UAZ. GAZ-69 production on GAZ lines has been cancelled in 1956. Officially GAZ-69 became UAZ-69, but new name didn’t get accustomed even in official papers. The engine of the car was taken from the famous “Pobieda” GAZ-M20. Strangely, the vehicle was not supplied with side mirrors. The only small mirror in the uppermiddle of windscreen was useless in tarpaulin covered car because of small rear window.
Before 1970 there was only rear window in the canvas top, then 2 windows appeared on every side.
New brakes installed, bought from Bulgaria. Headlight deflector/black-outs included. Canvas top needs restored. Will drive to dock for shipping. Shipping and payment to be set-up by buyer. Vehicle has just over 1,000 kilometers original.”
Looks solid.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
(06/21/2012) Looks like the rear bumper was in the way of the exhaust, so it was sliced off. I’m sure I would’t put too much weight on the tow ball.
