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 .
Engine is supposed to run. Seller knows little about it.

I noticed that this M38a1 looks like it has a M38 arctic hard top with the windshield straight up and down. That is the only one I have ever seen except for one that I have. Mine has a flat head 4. Where can I get info for this jeep?
Thanks, Dave
Hi Dave,
That’s a good point. Does it use a special windshield to sit more straight up?

Dave,
Sorry for late response. Missed the email. To your question, yes. The windshield looks like it is a M38 hardtop windshield, cut into body at the lowest part (because of the wider body). The door hinges bolt onto the lowest part of the windshield. Mine also has a 134 flat head engine with the two lift points. I’m not sure what army had this. I bought this 3 hrs. north of Toronto, Ontario. Do you know where I can get info on this one?
Thanks, Dave
Hi Dave,
Well that sounds different! I did notice the flat head, too. I’ve never seen another M-38A1 with that windshield setup, so I’m not sure if there is anyone paperwork on that? It sounds more like a custom item to me. Sorry I can’t be more help with it.
