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 .
Looks solid.

I believe that’s the first M38A1 I’ve seen with the tandem hitch on it.
Here’s something I didn’t know. According to Olive Drab, installing it onto a front bumper was documented:
“The Tandem Hitch was originally designed for the World War II jeeps, the Willys MB and Ford GPW. However, it will fit, without modification, the first two post-war jeeps, the M38 and M38A1. The document TB ORD 621 (2 Dec 1955) describes the kit and installation procedures for all of these jeeps. In 1955, the Federal Stock Number was 8-H-1826, and FSN 2540-735-8343.
The installation is slightly more complicated on the M38 and M38A1 jeeps since the bumper is retained. The installation”

Yeah, I read that. I didn’t know they used them that long.
