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 .
Maybe someone can use this.
“Tub only for you MB Willy’s Jeep project.
If it is still listed, I still have it.”

It’s an M-38 that has a few MB items on it. The seller believes the windshield to be an MB windshield, but it appears to be an early CJ-2A windshield.

“I am selling my Willys M38 Jeep that was finished as a MB clone. This 1952 military jeep was built for the Korean war and is a true military jeep, but this one has the MB grille/bucket lights and older style windshield added.
Many new parts. The Willys runs and drives well and is parade ready. No oil leaks to speak of. Maybe one or two drips at the most. I drive this jeep every other day to the store and everybody honks and waves. This is a great jeep for you to have fun with the kids and grandkids as it has all the safety upgrades, such as blinkers, tail lights, seat belts, head lights, black out lights, and horn.
This jeep starts every time winter or summer. 4×4 works as it should. Not perfect, but ready to drive and have fun with. It cruises about 40 mph. The speedometer reads about 8 mph too fast so you’ll think you’re driving 48 mph! Clean Kansas Title.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4000
(11/19/2016) This may be a mix of a CJ body and WWII chassis.
“1942 Willys Jeep.
Runs and drives excellent, I’ve driven it all over and it’s really impressive how well it drives. Most of the gauges and lights don’t work, but should be easy to fix. There’s not a lot to these things. Has the original motor. No clue on the mileage. Has a manual 3spd transmission. Removable hard top. No doors. Converted to power steering. Converted to 12v.
Serious inquires only.
No spam
No dealers
Looking to sell to buy RZR parts
Not really looking to trade”
Rob’s selling his MB.
“Selling my 1945 MB Military Willys Jeep. This is an Authentic 1945 U.S. Army 4 cylinder, WIllys MB Jeep with 24,000 original miles. This MB Jeep runs and drive great.
This MB Jeep was converted to a 12 volt system years ago, and is still that way today. If you wanted to convert it back to a 6 volt system, I have the regulator, you will just need the starter, and light bulbs. This Jeep still retains it’s original 6 volt generator.
This rare beauty is a true piece of Americana history, and it would be difficult to find one this nice for under $20,000.

“I don’t know much about these Jeeps. I recently acquired this Military vintage Jeep from the previous owner who obviously put a lot of effort in restoring this vehicle both mechanically and body. A few after market refinements were put in place including: electric fuel pump, alternator, turn signals, back-up lights, gauges, exhaust. Looks like the entire drive train has been gone through. It starts and drives great, 4WD works, brakes well, solid steering, good clutch etc. Looks to have a full floating rear axle, front locking hubs, wheels and tires in great shape.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2800.

Sellers failed to get a state grant to complete restoration of this one.
“An authentic, 1944 U.S. Army 4cyl, Willys MB Jeep, VIN#
MB 383450 with just over 26,000 original miles. It is completely operational with many accessories, including the top, spare, tools and implements. We have brought the jeep up to approximately 90-95% operation and appearance. This jeep is show worthy but runs a little rough, determined to be a minor problem by my mechanic. The driver\’s seat was extended with a kit for steering wheel and leg comfort. I can also provide to a serious buyer all that was invested in the restoration.
We are selling this Willys MB because, we were unable to get any Kentucky grant funding for acquisition and the full restoration; Our personal investment had reached its limit.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $24,500.
Mark just listed this at warjeeps.com. It doesn’t have the correct solid rims.

Please do not text me about this Jeep. I will gladly accept phone calls.”

(11/20/2016) Doesn’t run.
“Fresh Barn find! This thing is awesome! Looks like it was modified sometime in the 70s a cool look back into history of multiple eras. Has a straight 6 Studebaker engine mated to the original transmission and transfer case. Can easily be converted back to the original. Everything is there and in tact. Currently does not have exhaust manifold and not sure if the engine will turn over. Steers and stops.”

Jay spotted this MB parts jeep.
“Based on the research I’ve done I believe it to be a Ford. Was able to locate a body number and that indicates its a Ford. The frame is in good condition and it has the machine gun mount. Body is ruff. No engine or transmission and not really interested in parting it out. Due to previous owners modifications I am unable to locate a vin number.”
