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 .
Willys M-38A1
$4,000 Petersburg, IL
Any help on the year here?
INFORMATION FROM SELLER:
M38A Willys military jeep. Unknown year, barn find, no title, does not run. 2 batteries 24V. Brand new tires and almost all parts to rebuild. OBO
’54 OR ’55 model: No grill hinges, wide front bumper, and strap style battery box lid.
Other thing the owner could check for is the manufacturer’s Ser No plate on the wheel house angle behind the pass seat (often painted over).
Considering its “unknowns”… age and engine/drivetrain status, it looks like you’re buying the tires and parts…and getting the rest at a nominal price.
To quote the famous philosopher Clint Eastwood…
“Do ya feel lucky…”.
