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 .
The M-38A1D is the nuclear model.

“2 jeeps for sale selling as a pair. You could take the 2 and make a nice jeep as all the parts are the same. 1 jeep is a 1957 CJS with engine and transmission that ran good 2 years ago until starter went out. The other is a military M38A1 that had a cannon mount on the back, no motor has transmission. 2000.00 for both”

1957 CJ-5:
Mark and his son Tom have assembled another video with Drew at the Jeep Farm, this time it involves the rebury of a CJ-5.
Has a solid looking Kelly top. Could be a good price. It was bought and has been owned locally in Leadville.
https://rockies.craigslist.org/cto/d/leadville-59-willys-jeep/7121228182.html
“16200 original miles on hurricane 4. All original except for radiator,hoses, front fenders, paint,seats, wheels and new tires. Have doors with broken glass.Runs good. It was bought here in Leadville at jeep dealer in 59 by original owner and I became 2nd owner in 2001. Realizing I probably will not find time to restore.”
My great uncle had a low mileage early CJ-5 jeep that was rarely used and rarely left the farm (sold before his death; sadly I couldn’t get it at the time). So, it’s possible the 8200 mileage is correct. However, with that low of mileage, I’m surprised the heater (or whatever was installed on the passenger side — see engine compartment photo — isn’t still there).

“This Jeep is completely original. It has 8200 original miles. It spent most of its adult life in Eastern Wa. Everything works…4 wheel drive..runs well. Has always been garaged.”
It’s got pretty dented fender, and a little damage in the rear, but otherwise seems like it’s in good shape.

“Runs excellent, no rust, body has some character. Has been stored in a garage at a mountain cabin. Great candidate for a restoration project or just a summer daily driver.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4000.
Looks like it has the original KS 0-10 speedometer in it (but the needle is broken). Has an f-head header, too.
“This is an original 6 volt cj5 has 4 cylinder engine runs great and drives great has twin stick transfer case and 4wd works great have 3 of the 4 stock rims and have 4 newer rims and 3 newer tires no title but have off road tags for it new steering wheel and wiper motor sprayed bed liner in floor of it and just a small amount of rust in floor under fuel tank”
It’s supposed to be turn key ready (no written description provided).

UPDATE: This was an M-38 only, but now appears to include a CJ-5.

This has a Koenig half cab. The cargo area has a hinged lid. It runs and may be worth a look.

This creative trailer looks to be the rears of two early CJ-5 tubs welder together, both with tailgates at both the front and back, capped with a Koenig hardtop, plus some additional customization. Looks like it does the job.

This includes a working set of Thor Electronic Hubs (and the first pic I’ve seen of the switch to engage the hubs). These are the “Lectro-Matic” version of the hubs (there was also an automatic version). Dan documented a set of the “Lectro-Matric” hubs here.

“Anyone looking for the coolest 62 Jeep CJ5 on the planet. I got this handsome little guy up for sale. It’s beyond amazing! Everything works, every light, all gauges, the chrome winch ect…oh and there’s chrome all over the place. Original paint, Original interior.. both are in incredible condition. It’s a very unique Jeep and it’s running a Corvette engine that was installed by the original owner in the mid sixties.He was a aircraft mechanic so everything is perfect .It also has very rare Thor electronic locking front hub set . No rust anywhere and super straight. I have the those crazy off road wide white wall tires in the pics and the hubcaps. I just threw on a new set of Power King black walls to drive it around. The Jeep runs amazing! It’s got really good power and not geared that low. I have not taken it on the freeway but got it up to 60mph with no issues. This is a very special Jeep with history. Ca title & current registration in my name”
Interesting that this has New Mexico plates. If it spend most of its life in NM, it may be pretty solid.
