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 .

Vehicle is complete but not running. It is at tail end of complete frame off restoration but I haven’t touched it in 5 years and am moving on to something different. Title is clean, registered non-op in California as a 1947 CJ-2A. No smog ever. Looking for $8,750.
Here are the highlights:
1942 tub, some bondo from previous owner but not much. OD Green paint with nicely aged patina.
Custom heavy-duty Matkins steel frame
Full roll cage welded to frame with integrated seat mounts, HiLift jack mount and fullsize spare mount
Bestop low back seats with Mastercraft 5-point harnesses
Jeep YJ clutch and brake pedal assembly with hydraulic clutch

Someone must need these…
“I have two original seat frames with newer cushions for a CJ3a, along with a straight looking rear seat that was homemade. All material is in good shape, just needs some cleaning. I bought them for a project but decided to go a different direction and am just trying to recover my money. $75 for each of the front seats, $200 for all three”
This is an online auction.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2800.
Here’s another M-38A1 with the extended rear. It looks to be a ’52 or early 1953.
“I really hate to part with this project, but I just have too many. This is an original military type jeep but what makes it even more rare is that it was extended in the back like a scrambler for some special purpose. (not a cj6 because they were extended between the wheels and this one is extended in the back. As you can see it it has the military dash board, windsheild, front grill, cut out for battery box and heavy duty suspension and steering components. It looks like someone modified it at some point with a Buick Dauntless V6 225 and it ran when i parked it here.
It needs a new floor and i have another tub with a great floor that i was going to cut out and put in this one but never got around to it. This would be such a great head turner project with just some big tires and a great military type paint job or like with any jeep, whatever you can emagine. Call me to take a look at it. I garantee you will not find another one like this! Almost forgot. I have a half cab top for this thing so it could look like a pickup if you like.”
Dan shared this project. It still has its ‘Jeep’ badges on it.

“Hello, for sale I have my 1948 Willy’s rat rod. I have put a lot of time and money into this, and just don’t have enough time to finish it up right now. Here’s the story on it.
I bought a 1948 Willy’s Army Jeep, took the tub off and hand it sandblasted. I then purchased original parts for it planning on restoring it to an original army Jeep. So I have special ordered original green military paint for it, original windshield, hood, dash, seat brackets, etc.
I then decided to take the project it a different direction, and purchased a nice 1989 Crown Victoria with 60,000 miles on it, and the Ford 5.0 fuel injected engine. It has coil-over suspension in the front and rear, along with disk brakes.
