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 .
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $12,000
(05/18/2010) This looks in good shape. Apparently it needs some mechanical work.
“1952 M38 WILLYS JEEP RUNS GOOD BUT NEED WORK MAKE ME A OFFER THANKS. ”
In our continuing, virtually unending series on museums, comes the National War Museum in Malta. This museum houses only one willys, but it is a rather famous Willys named “Husky”. Also, I’m usually pretty good with geography, but I had Malta (the isle of Malta that is) quite a bit west and didn’t remember it being an island!
According to this site, “This Willys Jeep was brought to Malta by General Dwight D. Eisenhower in July 1943. It was used by the Commander-In-Chief, Allied Forces, Mediterranean during his stay in Malta, preparatory to the invasion of Sicily. He named the jeep “Husky” after the code-name of that operation. Before crossing over to Sicily, General Eisenhower presented the jeep to Air Vice Marshall Sir Keith Park, Air Officer Commanding Malta. This jeep was subsequently used by Franklin D. Roosevelt when the American President visited Malta on December 8, 1943.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3000.
‘1950 Willy’s CJ3A; Runs excellent; New Tires, New 6 volt battery, New Carburetor, New Brakes. These old jeeps are hard to come by! The floor pan is solid but the body has some Bondo. The running gear and motor are in good condition. The jeep has a 12 volt winch on it but the winch battery needs to be replaced. The jeep would be a great one for a restoration project or a hunting vehicle. 3 speed with a super low granny gear that will climb any hill on the mountain. Towing fork on the front for hauling it to your favorite hunting spot. The Jeep is registered for road use.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1495

It runs.
“This rare old jeep has been used hunting and 4-wheeling and putting around town. It has some paint but is mostly brown primer. The body has not been altered except for moving the fuel receptacle from under the seat to the side of the vehicle , so it could easily be restored. The engine is GPA,(military amphibious), and runs good. It has the original back seat but the front seats have been replaced. It also has a canvas top and a winch (made from WWII airplane parts).”
