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: Was on eBay. **SOLD**
(04/20/2011) This was completed by the folks at Vintage Offroad. I can’t say I’m a big fan of the yellow steering wheel.

“1952 Overland M38 A1 Jeep. Moving soon and don’t have the time to restore this properly. Frame is in *excellent* condition, no rust. Needs some bodywork on rear panel and left-front fender, otherwise ready for primer-paint.

Transmission and transfer case recently rebuilt (can’t verify though they shift fine and oil was clean). Engine rebuilt though I don’t know how much mileage or when. Cyl head needs new valves and guides since they rusted from sitting in damp environment. If you have questions please ask, email for quickest response. $1500 firm. You won’t find one in better condition.”

Brett spotted this one. I like it. Fortunately, he wants to sell it to serious restorers.
“This is what’s known as a VEC (very early civilian) CJ2A vin 21766 and has many unique characteristics. It is column shift, has the tool indents in the side panel, and five solid rims. This is an extremely nice, very original example that was sitting in a storage container in the Nevada desert for years. Very straight, nearly rust-free body, original keyed coil, door sockets (and door frames), gauges, wheels, etc. Mileage shows 81,079. It would be considered a project vehicle as I never tried to get it running, but appears a relatively simple restoration. It rolls very easily, steering is tight, and I’d bet with a battery, gas, and TLC it would fire up. It’s missing a couple things and needs some repair, but is remarkable for a 65 year old vehicle. The previous owner began a “restoration” and painted the windshield frame and hood but they should be re-done correctly. Selling to put time and money into an earlier 2A recently acquired. Many more photos available. Serious, restoration inquiries only please. Title in hand. Thanks!”

Here’s a very nice wagon over at jeeptruck.com. This might be a Maverick? Someone who has a better eye for identifying these will have make the call on that.

All original and family owned since bought out of WWII. It looks like the front hubs aren’t original. It has an interesting carrier in the back.
“1942 GPW Military Jeep. All Original, Everything Including the Engine, Transmission, Drive Train are all ORGINAL.
This Jeep has been in storage for over twenty years and hasn’t been started for twenty years. But engine turns over, nothing seized.
This Jeep has been in my family since my uncle bought it from the government after he got out of WWII.
This Jeep also has the front tow bar on that is military issue. They would use this to link two two jeeps together to tow a howitzer. I just recently got all the fees paid on this jeep and have current registration and clean title.”
This might be a good price.
“Classic Jeep, Runs Great, Solid Body, Overall great condition. Will consider trade for a small PU 4×4. Please call 207-933-2553 for more information.”
