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 .

Runs and drives. Engine will need a rebuild.
“1945 Ford GPW #267700 matching numbers on frame and body. Motor runs but needs rebuilt. Body work has been done on this over the years, floor redone but not right, some bondo in cowl on the passenger side and over rear wheel well on passenger’s side. It’s a ten footer! By no means is this a pile of junk but I just want anyone interested to know the facts about it. I am pulling the engine next week and the price will go up accordingly. Look at E-Willys or any of the military jeep for sale sites and you will see what a really nice one goes for.With new floor panels, new rear fender wells and the motor rebuilt and the major work is done. I will pull the body off after the motor is rebuilt and do the floor and rear fender wells again the price will reflect the repairs as I go through it.”
This summer of 2018 video shows Josh, the Stoney Ridge Farmer out of North Carolina, pulling a family jeep out of a barn. The jeep hadn’t been driven in thirty years. There are more videos related to the jeep here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQVGf64a6nqKhgR9eKCUY4A/search?query=jeep
This series of photos was published June 14, 1942, in the Evening Star. There’s also a post from 2015 that includes some similar photos. Becky Bergmann in a Ford GP was featured in several.
This former SEMA FC sold for $159,500 at this year’s Scottsdale auction.
https://www.barrett-jackson.com/Events/Event/Details/1958-JEEP-FC170-CUSTOM-SUV-227949
“This 1958 Jeep FC170 was completely hand-built by the Daystar team in Phoenix, AZ. Hundreds of hours went into the building of this Jeep, and it was featured at the 2015 SEMA show. The combination of the all-terrain wheels and tires, and separate Mattracks 88 Series tracks, the vehicle can tackle any terrain on tires or treads. The custom body of the FC170 is protected by a beautiful 3-stage custom Metallic Viper Green paint accented with a pearlescent cream. The Daystar team did an outstanding job on the quality of finish, raw power and off-road prowess. It’s powered by a 5.7-liter 8-cylinder engine backed by an automatic transmission. This Jeep is still in great condition to this day. Both wheels and tires, and Mattracks tracks are included in the sale.”

There are a bunch of jeep-snow pics on eBay, so thought I’d share an array of them given that a number of you got hit with snow in the last few days.

(01/24/2019) Seller notes they have some nicks.
“You are looking at a vintage PAIR of 15 x 8.5 aluminum slot mags in the Ford truck lug pattern. These wheels have a 5 ½ lug pattern with a 3 1/2 inch inside back spacing. These wheels will fit 48 to 87 Ford 2 or 4WD ½ ton truck and van. They would also fit a Willys Jeep, truck or wagon. There are a few small nicks”
The August 20, 1944, issue of the Evening Star shared these jeeps used for War Bond Sales. They were modified by the Camp Gruber, Oklahoma, motor pool. The image with “Jeeps in Civvies” label has been featured on eWillys previously, but I’ve never seen the other two jeeps.
I didn’t learn a whole lot about this truck, but apparently in 2015 this truck cruised the west coast as some type of grassroots(?) marketing venture for Nordstrom. Multiple photos of it are shown on a marketing site called “Out Cold”. I think “Out Cold” leases/rents the truck for events?
