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 .
Hasn’t run in a few years.

‘A solid M38A1. Can be restored to it’s original military form or used as it is. Been a hunting rig for years.
Not stock: equipped as follows:
Buick V6-12k winch-warn hubs-full cage roll bar- 32 inch wheels & tires-12 volt electrical system. Dual exhaust. Runs strong. Power steering. The left front fender kissed a pine tree-have an original M38A1 replacement fender for it. This baby doesn’t have to jump thru DMV’S smog hoop! Now isn’t that nice!

Oh yes, it’s all set up to tow, wired and tow bar tabs. All you need is a tow bar. I have one I can sell?”
UPDATE: This was sold a couple years ago. It’s back up for sale.
Looks like a good price.

Craig spotted this M-38A1 that’s been repowered with a Kubota diesel engine.
“1952 Willys M38A1 was brought back to life in 2015 after a two year restoration and modification was completed. Every nut and bolt was removed, inspected, replaced if damaged and reassembled to ensure this restoration did not leave any areas of the Jeep untouched. Two major modification were completed during the restoration. The electrical system was converted to a 12V system and the engine was replaced with a Kubota V2403 60 HP turbo diesel engine”

“I have a project for sale. it is a korean war jeep M38A1.
It comes with a 4 cylinder engine non flat head. I swapped the axles from a ’77 cj5. Amc 20 and Dana 30, to make them work I adapted a T20 TC on the T90 Transmission which was rebuilt just like the front end. new brakes all around as well as new brake hoses and lines,new gas tank. Need work hence I called it a project. It drives but need tuning. it is registered but as non op since I don’t drive it.
EDIT: THIS JEEP IS A 59 YEARS OLD VEHICLE AND IT NEEDS WORK BEFORE DRIVING IT PROPERLY. THE ENGINE IS A F4 134 INLINE 4. THAT SAID THIS JEEP IS NOT SUITABLE FOR THE FREEWAY. IT WILL DRIVE SAFELY AT 45 MPH. YOU’D NEED TO BRING A TRAILER. THANKS FOR READING.”
