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 .
This buy-it-now CJ-2A Al-toy isn’t perfect and has some funky tires, but looks like a good price.

“*800 dollars tonight!* *Selling for a friend* Need gone within a few days. 1947 cj2 Willy’s jeep with a 302 engine under the hood. No Transmission. Needs complete restoration from interior seats, soft top and exterior body work. Lost of rust on tail end with a dent by left taillight. Jeep enthusiast from Denver came to look at it and his opinion on value would be 3800 with transmission 2800 without. But said a serious buyer would probably start around 1700. Vehicle has No title as original owner ( 2 great grandfather never could find it) He Passed away in 1965 However it is a true Willy’s original make with a fantastic history behind it. He is willing to negotiate a bit due to condition but not willing to let a piece of history and family heirloom go for free. Please message me or let me know if you have any additional questions. Located in la junta and it will need to be trailered out. Potentially willing to meet Halfway from whatever destination for an additional fee if needed”
A couple days ago I bent the front passenger side loop. All was well until the very last (bottom) bend. For the passenger side it would have been okay where it is, but for the driver’s side I felt the bar would be better if it angled more quickly once under the dash so it gave more clearance for the clutch foot.
So, after much hemming and hawing, I bent the driver’s side differently. That turned out better, which meant redoing the passenger side.
You can see a comparison of them below. It’s tough to visualize where the floor/firewall will be, but the sheet metal gives a rough idea.
Once I get the passenger loop done, the remaining bars ought to be completed more quickly.
However, before I could do that Thursday night we discovered a leak underneath the bathroom of our master bedroom. Ugh. We don’t know when it actually broke, but Thursday night, we could hear a strange noise in the bathroom. Of course, we were about ready for bed, which meant getting re-dressed and dropping into our crawl space where I shut off the water to our house. Friday morning I crawled the length of the house, where I discovered where the water was falling on the plastic. The actual break was in the insulation, but I didn’t locate it. I’d rather get a pro to deal with it.
So, we are house-camping again. On the upside, we tried out the shower in our shop for the first time. It turns out, it works great!
We have a plumber (highly recommended and the uncle of our neighbor) coming tomorrow to look at it, as I’d rather not work with the copper pipe. I want to get it done quickly and get it done right … I got a cage to finish!
This issue of Jeep News is printed with Winter 1974 on it, but I think that refers to Jan/-Feb of 74 rather than Nov-Dec 74 and Jan 75. There are other issues (to be posted) that cover that time period.
UPDATE: The event is today and tomorrow!
Joe in Mesa shared this event flyer for the 32nd annual Arizona Military Vehicle Show in Phoenix, Arizona, January 28th-29th, 2023.

This has a variety of updates.

“V8 swapped Willie’s. 4×4 4 speed manual, Top is sagging, has working winch, cool headers. Starts and runs nice, Price is 7,500$. Unknown body miles, 53,000 miles on gm short block. ”
Nate refurbed this M-38. You can see more pics and contact him through his website (got to bottom of the website page and click on “NOTE”): https://1951m38.godaddysites.com
“Zero rust, clean frame, extremely smooth running M38. Every inch of this old Jeep has been gone over and been cleaned and serviced. 9 out of 10 mechanically with original data plates, and Army stencils. There are 47,851 miles on the restored odometer.
This original L134 runs and starts perfectly. Serviced by a new fuel system, Carter W-O carburetor, intake/exhaust manifold, radiator, and oil filter, this engine runs smooth and strong. A new 12V alternator and all new electrical system runs the lights and gauges.
You will not find any rust on the frame or body of this well-kept M38. Lots of old red “barn paint” was removed to reveal the original olive drab paint. With a little work, this body will be ready for new paint, or you can enjoy this Willys with authentic character.”
It runs and drives. It needs a few things completed. It’s worth a look.

“1946 Jeep Willys CJ2A Unknown mileage In the past was used on a farm and kept in a barn. Runs and drives. 4×4 works good. It has been converted to 12 volt system. I have a clean title and license plate I have put on a new high torque starter, NGK coil, spark plugs and wires, battery, fuel filter, etc. Comes with some old parts, 2 universal seats, the original skinny wheels with 3 military tires. It is a 3 speed manual. Needs some small things and some body work but its all there!! May consider trades on other 4x4s Make me an offer!”
It could use some love, but these Safari tops aren’t something I see for see very often (more info). I’m guessing this was made for a CJ-3A or DJ-3A, but may fit a 2A.

“Dam good jeep has no rust posting for family member”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6600.
Has some hat channel rot, but the floors are supposed to be solid. The windshield has quite a bit of rot.
“1951 Willys MC (M38) radio jeep. runs, drives, stops. Has an all new brake system. Engine is still 24V. Underhood batery box, air filter, and crossover tube not pictured but included. We took this jeep on a 250mi trip last fall and it did great. Front floors are solid and functional but hat channels underneath are in poor shape. All other rust is in pictures, mostly the passenger side. This is a good jeep to drive & enjoy as is, but would aslo make a good restoration candidate. The hood numbers are still legible and i uncovered markings which show that it was a radio jeep, with an AN/GRC-7 radio. Civilian gas tank in pics is not included, neither is the battery under the hood. Clean title in my name. Located in SW Indiana”
