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: Price dropped to $7900.
(06/21/2017) This jeep apparently has some history.

Vail Arizona not Colorado. City right outside Tucson.
Yep, my fingers went into auto pilot on that one …Thanks!
Vail AZ is where I bought my ’42 GPW you’d published on eWillys:

Would you trade for a 2004 f150?
Marine Core jeeps should have yellow stenciling, no USA, and NO STARS. If you advertise it – represent it!
The grille doesn’t look hinged…(as it should be?). Turn signal lights on grill look to have been changed.
Rixk,
Only the 1952 and some of the 1953 (not sure the exact number) had the hinges. Hinges shouldn’t be present on M-38A1s from 1954 onward. The blacklights have been swapped out for parking lights/turn signals. I’d be they former could be swapped back in pretty easily if desired.
In early M-38A1s, another early feature to look for is the way the fenders are cut. In the pic at the top the driver side fender has a joint that runs from the middle of the fender to the top of it. Early ones have a joint that start about the same place, but run back to the top back corner like this: http://willysmjeeps.com/v2/modules/gallery/albums/album87/Early_fender_lg.jpg
