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: **SOLD** Was $2000.
Looks like it may have value.

(07/21/2014) “I have a 1952 willys jeep the m38 military model. It has a newer 350 crate motor in it, 4spd, 4×4, new tires and brakework done. NOO RUST!!!! Drives great!”
It’s listed as a 1946, but it’s a Lefty. Engine is frozen.
“I do not currently have a title ,but my family and I are in the process of acquiring said title. It was my Grand Fathers, He bought it in the 50’s. It was willed to me 17 yrs ago. The engine is seized and has been for 42 years. It is 100% complete and mostly original or 60 year old after market. The window frame has broken, but there is more than enough good old American steel to weld to. If the ad is still up, I still have it. You can see it in Dayton, Nevada. I will not reply to any e-mail asking what I want for it. It’s worth what someone is willing to pay. I am a serious seller and will consider any and all reasonable offers.”

“I am selling my 1947 Willys, the frame is boxed from front to rear with a 283 Chevy motor, all the body armor has been removed but I have it if a buyer wanted it. The body has the usual rust for a vehicle this age but is all repairable. The Jeep ran when I put it in my garage, that was 2 years ago but it still turns freely. It does have new brakes on the rear but I think it needs a master cylinder. Also the gauges are there but not wired in, it needs wiring work. Continue reading

It runs.
“You can plow your drive this winter in style with this jeep. It’s a little crusty around the edges but still keeps on going. I’ve never been able to get her stuck enough that she couldn’t drive out of it. If it doesn’t snow this winter then at least you’ll have a fun mud toy. With a little tlc she’ll keep going for a long time.”

(12/12/2015) It’s a project.
“I am not selling a car… I am offering you a piece of America’s awesome history. What you see in the photos is the frame and drive train of the one the machines that was used to assert the U.S. as the world’s first super power. A 1942 Willy’s Jeep MB. By owning just one of these fine pieces of all American ingenuity, you become a finer more patriotic citizen of this great nation. And one day (most likely when you are not looking) the symbol of this land of freedom, yes a bald eagle, will fly over your home and smile down on it. Now by this time you are thinking “I need this Jeep in my life!! But what has been done to it so far?” Well gents I am glad you asked. After rescuing this beautiful thing from an untimely death in a farmers field I (with the help of my amazing father-in-law a mechanic of over 40 year):
ran all new brake lines
all new brake pads
all new brake cylinders
all new master cylinder
rebuilt the transmission
rebuild the alternator
replaced front and rear bumper
replaced all shocks
bought 5 new rims with 5 like new tires (worth about $1000)
bought a new muffler kit
cleaned up the radiator
rebuilt the starter
up graded to a 12v system
and much more….
The Jeep come with many parks, far to many to list everything in fact. Some will need to be replaced and some just cleaned up a bit. The engine is free turning and ran before we disassembled the Jeep.
After all of this work there was a very unfortunate loss. Try as we might, we were unable to save the body tub. However… we did manage to save the very soul of this glorious beast; the iconic Jeep grill.
There is not to much more needed to bring the beautiful creation of the American auto industry back to life. This is why it is the PERFECT starter for someone looking to begin a new year as a “Jeep guy.”
Begin your dream of having an easy project jeep, with restoring a piece of the American dream.
Please call with any questions. I am asking $3800 OBO. Thank you for your time and God Bless”
