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 $1500.
Mark spotted this unusual DJ.

No pics provided. No title.
“I have a nearly complete, mostly un-molested M38-A1 project jeep. This Jeep came out of Nevada about 15 years ago, and the paperwork has been lost. It is mostly complete and stock. Original F-head 4-cylinder, 3-speed transmission, ..stock suspension, tires, wheels. The tires are shot from sitting. The body is mostly straight, with a small amount of minor rust. It is not cut up or damaged other than the right front fender being bent, probably fix-able. Steering, brakes, etc. all original. The seat frames are there, with cushions, but no upholstery, and the cushions would only be useful for patterns. The windshield is intact with good glass. It has bumpers that are not stock, and also has a tow bar on the front. This is a “barn find” I have not tried to start it yet (engine is NOT seized). I may consider offers and trade. Pictures available on request.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.

(12/04/2012) This is a 1947 CJ-2A with the “Go-Devil” L4-134 engine. It was a project, but I ran out of time and money.
The engine is fully rebuilt and bored .080 over. The head was milled and the block was checked for cracks. Crankshaft was machined .030 under. It has new valves, guides, and hardened seats to run on unleaded gas. New rings, bearings, gaskets, seals, oil pump and more.
The Jeep has the tub, aluminum gas tank, radiator, intake and exhaust manifolds, and drivetrain. This would make a good project.”
I found this picture on Flickr. That’s a long line of jeeps.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1900.
This looks more like a CJ-5 than a M-38A1. No shots of the dash to confirm. This might be worth a look.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8900
(11/04/2012) I’d like to see more pics of this. I wonder if it has VEC touches, too.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $700
Lots of stock parts, but it’s a mess.
“I have a willys jeep its complete has been sitting for many years the body is rough maybe salvagable with a lot of work but the jeep is complete. I looked it over and the frame looks good engine will not turn I am going to pull the spark plugs and put some diesel down the cylinders to try to break it loose the driveline is complete it would be a great restoration because its complete all the parts are here”
This has no title. I’m unclear why the gas inlet was modified. Note the header runs through part of the step area.
“This is a down to frame restoration, we kept everything as original as we could, repairing and restoring parts rather than purchasing new Chinese replacements. The wheels and tires of course are not original nor the bucket seats and headers. High and low range 4×4 work, the transmission we took completely apart and restored but 3rd gear slips out occasionally going down hill, a simple fix but I need to move on. I have some seat attachments and floor plates that need installed and I have a muffler for it, I just think it sounds better without it. You’ll need floor mats if you want them and the back seat This Jeep is completely road legal but I wouldn’t recommend pavement unless you put the original tires and wheels back on.”
