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 .

“I am looking to sell our 1943 WWII Army Jeep. Before we owned it, it belonged to my Grandfather. He was a Captain in the US Army during WWII, and in later years purchased the same year military jeep that he used during the war, and had it restored. It was in good running condition up until the time he passed away. We have owned it now for 5 years. It is not running at this time, but I believe that it is from sitting the past few years. It has been garage kept. We also have the original manuals for the jeep. This has been a very hard decision for us to make, so ONLY SERIOUS INQUIRIES will be considered.”
This looks solid.

“I am the second owner of this jeep (unless you count the U.S. government as the initial owner).
I recently inherited this jeep from my late uncle who operated it from WW2 until he died in 2011.
This jeep has spent the last 68 years garaged in the same garage in Marin County. It has seen extensive use with the volunteer fire department in the hills north of Lucas Valley during the 1950s – 1970s. In the 1980’s, it was re-painted and had restoration work done, new tires/radiator/gearbox/carb/gauges/brakes etc. For some reason, the engine and some parts are painted “John Deere Green”. For the last 20 years it has been used in parades and memorial/veterans day ceremonies.
My uncle served in New Guinea and the Phillipines during 1944 and 1945 with the 914th Engineers. This unit followed the “Fighting Fifth” Air Force in the Pacific. Their main job was to secure and repair forward air bases that had just been captured from the Japanese. He also did surveying, mapping, and construction of command headquarters, bunkers and fortifications in the mountainous regions. There’s no one currently alive in our family who can recall exactly how he acquired this jeep or if it was used in the conflict in the Pacific.
I have the pinkslip in hand (in my name) and it has plates. It is in the DMV system and currently registered as a NON-OP. I recently transported it from Marin to my place in Emeryville so I can clean it up and sell it.
It is free of rust. The tires are almost new with no cracking. The engine is stock with 6volt system. Right windshield has a crack. The engine starts and runs but won’t idle. (Carb issue?)
Seat upholstery might not be original. It has a mounted brand-new matching spare tire, jerry can and mounting brackets for the shovel and axe. (No shovel or axe included). There is a rifle holder mounted to the inside windshield. Windshield flips down. I even have keys for the fenderwell tool boxes.
I have it up on jackstands so potential buyers can see the wheels turn. It can’t be test driven on streets because there’s no brakes. Might need a brakes rebuild. Plus, it’s not currently registered for on-road nor is it insured. I can only sell it to someone who shows up with a hauler/trailer of flatbed hauler. It can’t be legally “towed” (with it’s tires touching the pavement).
This GPW comes with about 400 lbs of spare parts. Many of these parts are new. Plus it comes with some military uniform parts, helmet etc. Plus some printed memorabilia (reproductions) about the 914th Engineers.
First 5000.00 (CASH ONLY) takes it. Do not contact me unless you are personally interested in purchasing it directly and picking it up in person. Do not contact me if you are some middleman, broker or scammer. First come, first serve. First one who contacts me gets the first appointment to inspect it.”

“This jeep is a survivor, it has been garaged for the past 25 years and rarely driven. It is the perfect project for a full restoration, or drive it like it is. This jeep is 95 percent original and is currently registered in California. Shipping in the US only. Rebuilt engine 300 miles ago, new battery, carburetor, new fuel tank, hoses, wire harness, exhaust and muffler. The rear deck has been replaced and welded in. Has rear seat without mount. Rear seat and drivers seat done in canvas. Tires are fair and has spare. Starts and drives well. Two gauges are after market. All lights work except spot not wired. These are rare and would be great for any military collector. Price is firm. Thanks”

(07/24/2012) “1949 Willys Jeep that had a frame off restoration 6 years ago. Driven around 3000 miles since restoration. 28984 miles on odometer. The tub and tailgate and hood are replacement. Body is rust free and nearly perfect. Garaged everyday since restoration. All original save for the body, wheels and two inch lift springs and shocks.
