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. This section used to be split into jeeps, parts and other categories, but recent changes to eBay will require this information to be recoded.
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 looks good.

“1945 Willys MB for sale. It has a rebuilt motor that runs great, it only has about 15 miles on the new motor. It has all new wiring and it was converted to 12 volt. It has to many new things to list so give me a call and take it for a test drive. I started to restore the jeep but I did not know how much money it would suck up. The jeep is fun to drive but it is not completely original but it could be put back to original if someone had the time and money. I would trade for a nice running 90s toyota mr2 or nissan 300zx or a 3000gt,but it would not hurt to offer any thing all I could say is no”
HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY! No updates tonight …
I can’t tell how solid this is, but with a serial number of #12201 and matching numbers, this might be a good find for someone.

Ready for restoration! Breaks my heart to sell but times are hard and I need the cash. $1800. Serious replies only. 615-948-8656 ask for Dave.”

Here’s an M-38a1 with a freshly rebuilt 327 engine, rear end and front end. It’s a project still. I think the louvered hood is also unusual (I haven’t seen too many of these, though I *think* it’s a non-military hood).
“1952 WILLYS MILITARY JEEP PROJECT. M38 A1. Completely rebuilt 327 ci chevy motor, chevy 1-ton transmission, jeep model 18 transfercase and adaptor. Both axles completly rebuilt. I have all the parts and more. No major rust. Clean tittle and registration. Great jeep for the right person. “
