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 .

(07/10/2012) I wondered why this looked odd, but then I read “Suzuki Drive Train” . . .
“1946 Willys flat fender jeep, very cool, Suzuki drive train, runs great $3200 847 533-975 zero”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
(08/21/2012) This doesn’t run and doesn’t have a valid title.
“I have this amazing little jeep that I bought from a buddy of mine that was clearing his property to sell and I thought I would restore it but I was just let go from my job and have to downsize my car collection.
At any rate, the Willys is very complete and original down to the original Motorola radio (not sure if it works but it’s there)
Original 134ci (2.2l) flat head 4cyl hooked to the 3spd manual and original twin stick transfer case. Axles, suspension, steering, and even shackles are also original. Frame has surface rust but absolutely no rot.
Has a few rusty spots in the normal areas on the body and there are a few patch panels but firewall forward is in amazing shape, not even a dent in either fender. Has newer 1 piece windshield on it now but comes with original WILLYS stamped squared off split windshield and a couple of fabric doors in ok shape but no top. Hood is bent in but can be easily pushed back to shape
I haven’t been able to start it for a couple reasons (mainly because I can’t find spark plug wires that fit the ignition cap) and no time to play with it. Carb is also off and needs a lot of cleaning, but is the original from ’48. Oil bath air filter is also in good shape.
It appears to have been converted to 12V at one time, but I’m not certain, so I would make sure of that before tossing a battery in it just to see if it cranks. . . .
It runs with some smoke.
“Needs work. Engine runs but smokes. Running gears work good.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2300.
This runs and drives, but looks like it needs some work.
“this jeep is all original and runs and drives ready to play or restore”
UPDATE: Still Available
(07/26/2012) I’m gonna guess that this is a M-38 body and front clip on a CJ-2A frame and possibly drive train. The gas inlet looks more civilian than military though. The tailgate is civilian, too.
“For Sale : 1946 M-38 WWII-era Jeep : $6500
One of a Kind, Good Condition, Runs Great, Fresh Paint, New Tires…
There’s not too many of these around and it won’t take long to sell…
Asking $6500 or best offer.

UPDATE: This appears to have sold. Price was $1199.
“Jeep Willys with L134 4 cyl. engine, three speed manual. Always starts right up, has front disc brakes. Tires are good, 33×12.5×15 MTR’s. Body fairly solid and soft top. Has custom made frame very solid and strong. The jeep is a mixture of parts from CJ2A &CJ3A & M38. I have had it for many years and no longer have use for it. Has been in storage for ten years and will need some maintenance.”
UPDATE: Dennis reports this has sold. It was listed at $1500.
This hasn’t b een run in a while and has rot on the driver’s side at the very least. The half cab looks good.
“MOTOR REBUILT IN EARLY 1990’S, BEEN IN STORAGE FOR LAST 15 YEARS, LAST STARTED IN 2001. 6′ BLADE INCLUDED.”
