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 .

<– Day 26 –Apr. 14th: Gorditas Make Me Sleepy | OVERVIEW | Day 28 – Apr. 16th: Artichokes and Sushi Boats –>
Today we didn’t do much but relax and wander around Monterey on a mostly cloudy day. Monterey has two wharfs, one more tourist-oriented and one more local-oriented. We started at the latter by grabbing some clam chowder at the Sandbar & Grille Restaurant. The chowder tasted good, but had a too many potato chunks and too few clams.
After lunch we got on our tourist vibe with a walk to the other more notable wharf.
The ‘tourist’ wharf even had an unofficial greeter:
It doesn’t look like his fishing is faring to well.
Visitors strolling the wharf.
At the end of wharf Ann got busy with her camera, so I got busy photographing her.
As we left the wharf I decided to see if YELP could find an interesting ice cream place. Sure enough, YELP found Kai Lee Creamery in Pacific Grove. So, we headed west until reaching the cannery row area, with some recognizable places.
Kai Lee Creamery was started six months ago by Butch Adams who had no experience in the industry. His goal is to make ice cream that is organic, gluten-free, non-soy, all-natural, vegetarian, and handmade.
Oscar Skold was in Colombia last month. He shot these photos for us (at least that’s the way I’d like to think of them).
He reports, “I know most of these are not actually Willys jeeps but nevertheless a very cool encounter while I was visiting Colombia a month ago. They use most of these old jeeps as taxis and you see them everywhere. Unfortunately I didn’t have a camera to shoot all that I saw but these pics gives you an idea what a great country this is to travel around in. We were mostly in the Medellin area and south, down to a town called Roldanillo.”
Note that the seller will go no lower than $1500. Should go quick.
“Willys jeep will be nice for a person it has a flat head 4cyl in it has a pto on back of it. is a stick shift no b.s. offers. Lowest i will go is 1’500”

“1951 Willys Wagon 4×4 – $1600 firm.
An untouched 1951 Willys’-Overland wagon, 4×4. Original 4cyl engine. Body is in great shape considering its age. This is the last year this vehicle had one taillight.
An ‘original’ mid section Willys’-Overland bumper is included (a previous owner destroyed the one currently on the vehicle.
The vehicle includes the original half-folding second seat which is quite rare. Also, the vehicle still has both rear arm rests. The original oak planks in the floor are in great condition.
This vehicle does not start (no battery) however the engine turns freely. It will need to be towed on a flatbed trailer and/or truck.
Sorry, no trades and I will not part-out. If I don’t sell it the whole thing for $1600, I’m pulling the engine, trans and t-case and scraping the rest of it.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7500
Not perfect (and missing a speedometer), but fun for a ride.

Looks solid.
“Up for sale is this very nice 1952 Willys M38A1. This Jeep was purchased a few years ago and had underwent a full frame off restoration before purchase. It has been lightly used ever since and is still in very good condition! The paint still looks great since the restoration and there are a few chips in it from normal wear and tear and I will try and show any imperfections in the pictures. It comes with a complete canvas top and doors that are in great condition with no tears. All drive terrain and electrical systems had been gone through and are in perfect working condition. The original 24 volt system is still working great and she fires up every time. The original Brass data plate is still intact! This is a great driving jeep and runs and drives like it did when it was new. If you’ve been interested in an army jeep now is your chance to own one!
If you have any question about the jeep or something more you would like to see that was not shown in the pictures please feel free to email me, call me or text me at 360-601-fourzero30 and I will be happy to answer any questions the best I can.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3000
Given the fire damage, I’m not sure how much value is here. Looks like it had a replacement body.
