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: This sold. Was listed at $13,500. I got a chance to look at this up close.
(03/09/2013) “This 1947 Willy’s CJ2A is a striking example of a piece of American history that has been meticulously maintained and cared for over the past 60 years.
With a 3 speed transmission, powered by an updated Dauntless 225 V6 motor, and front and rear Power Take Off, this Willy’s is sure to impress at car shows, or off roading.

“Put a little mud on the tires in this Beautiful 1961 Willy’s CJ3B! This RARE “High Hood” was my winter restoration project four years ago. The restoration included body work, an engine tune up with new carburator, wheels, tires, reupholstered seats, and fresh “rescue green” paint! I also installed a CD player and rear speakers during the resto along with a new speedometer. This CJ3B runs and drives beautifully! The engine runs strong and the Transmission & Transfercase shift smoothly. I have the original wheels and they can be purchashed during pickup. The Buyer is responsible for ALL pickup or delivery charges”
Neat photo.

This poor jeep saw some action. It can be found on TWDCs’ History Page. TWA assisted the Kingdom of Saudi with management assistant for the newly formed Saudi Arabian Airlines.
“Collectible 1950’s Jeep/Willys 4 Paper Banner Double Sided Signs 17″ x 12″. I found these signs picking a long closed dealership. Great collectibles for the Jeep/Willys fans. The signs are in very good condition. There is some slight soiling, sun-fading, and very slight tears. The one sign (refer to photos) has the hanging slot torn away. No damage to inhibit displaying in a man cave, business, or garage. They will be shipped flat.”

Hugh forwarded these crated jeep photos.

“Rare 1956 Willys Jeep CJ3B. This jeep was originally purchased by Trans World Airlines for service at the Tulsa Municipal Airport. It was moved to the Tulsa International Airport in 1961 where it was in service until 1979. In 1979 the jeep was purchased through a private bid auction, and has been kept by the second owner since. This is a rare all original CJ3B, from the tall hood, to the tail gate, to the original 4 cylinder engine. Original engine is complete, needs rebuilt, and does not run. The drive train is all original, and is a factory 4 wheel drive. The body has some rust, and will need restoration. As seen in the pictures its still in the original paint, although faded, you can still read TWA on the side. The interior is nice, solid floor pans, original seats, and all original gauges. This is a true one of kind rare original CJ3B.”

You’ll have to pay cash for this. Apparently, this seller has had some problems getting payment.
“Here’s a nice ’49 Willys Woody 2 door wagon (Tin Woody).
Fits the whole family and looks cool doing it! All it needs is a surfboard!
Nice body with a new satin black and custom woodgrain paint job. The woodgrain is all freehand airbrushed painted! NOT VINYL!
I have another hood for it for those that don’t like the hood scoop (I don’t like it so I found another hood. Just needs to be painted to match).
350 Chevy engine has been rebuilt. Has a little over 1,000 miles on it and the 350TH tranny.
Runs and drives great. Frame is a shortened S10 so it has power steering and power dics brakes.
Interior side panels and headliner are all wood. The side panels still need to be stained but headliner is done. Interior could use a little more work, but is presentable.
Has a Pioneer stereo that’s hooked up, but still needs speakers.
New tinted glass.
New tires with older but clean Centerline wheel”

“This jeep has been in stored indoors for the better part of 30 years. It had a SBC 327 put in back in the 70s. I recently went thru it and replaced a good portion of parts. All new brakes, wheel cylinders and master cylinder with the drums machined. Had the fuel tank professionally cleaned and coated new fuel pickup, new fuel lines , pump and Holley carb. New seals and gaskets for the whole driveline. Regasketed the engine, new radiator, water pump and hoses. New tires and dodge ram wheels. It has the overdrive unit which allows for highway driving.”
The seller isn’t correct about the M-38 being the rarest production jeep. There were others.
“Willys M-38 combat Jeep..Rebuilt transmission,transfer case,and axles,new clutch, Engine rebuild by previous owner…….All new gauges…..Converted to 12 volt
Good tub and body except hole in passenger floor.
New seatbrackets and gas tank, OriginalSpare tire and gas can and brackets
Ive put 6,000 plus miles on it but it sat last three years. Carb is dirty but it will idle
Needs carb cleaned and new exhaust manifold and exhaust.
This is a Ordinance (Army) Jeep,Repainted by hand in Marine corp colors, The insignia on the front bumper is that of a marine glider squadron…..
The M-38 is the rarest of the production jeeps Having only made 30,000 total….specifically for Korea…….all other designs produced 200,000 +
The only proof of actual overseas service on a jeep is the paint job
When one unit transferred out…..the motor pool equipment stayed….
Then it was assigned to the next unit coming in…..
In this case Army left and marines took over thus the repaint. (563-571-6998)”
