About eWillys
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.
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** The price was $12,500. This is a nice Jeepster.

“This 1949 Jeepster just recieved a frame off restoration to original specs. All parts have either been rebuilt, replaced, refurbished or new. The L-134 engine and overdrive have been rebuilt.There is no rust anywhere, as all damaged panels were replaced. The car is technically correct except for the steering wheel (is a 1950 model). The top cover and wood frames are all new. The tires are new Cokers and have approximately 50 miles on them. All the glass and rubber moldings are new. It has the correct Dupont Fiesta yellow color, interior is vinyl. The original mileage before the restoration is unknown. This is not a 100 point car but close. The air cleaner is an upgraded #675 model.There are vey minor issues with the fuel gage (sticking occasionally) and the horn (sticking occasionally). The car starts very easily and drives like a Jeepster should. Bidders are welcome to have a private appraiser inspect the vehicle before the auction ends. Sale includes all reciepts, photos, manuals, extra parts.”

(03/23/2010) This looks like a great restoration project for someone not looking to do an entire project at once. Note the owner has a notebook with the original documentation about this.

Not a bad price. Carbs are cheap and easy to replace! That said, how exactly does one ‘crack’ a carb??? A block yes, but a carb? Maybe it’s the intake manifold?
“Classic Willy’s Jeepster – good condition- was running great until we cracked carburetor – Must sell – $ 6,500.00 OBO Email if interested to see.”
“First year for the Jeepster-this is an older restoration and is a good driver-original drivetrain-4 cyl overdrive-not a show car but could be asking $8k obo or equal trades considered.”
UPDATE: The m-38 is still available, but I don’t know about the rest.
I’ve seen this Jeepster for sale, but other items haven’t been listed. I am wondering if the ‘M-38’ actually is an old MB with a replacement body.
“1. 48 Jeepster, runs and has a L head engine. Most miles are towed since previous owner towed it to parades for 50 years. Needs right interior and some body work. $4500 The Jeepster is a driver and I drive it a few times a month. 2. Jeep project. CJ2A. Frame has had some work but needs brakes rebuilt. Engine was supposed to be rebuilt but need new cam. But its been painted nice.

Project jeep that has engine that turns free by hand but missing starter and other external engine parts. Has windshield and grille now and needs front end work.

It was cut in half and stitched back together. $600 4. M38 with 302 that runs. Needs master cylinder installed and will run, but body needs welding since the guy who had it just fiberglassed it and bondo over that. So weld it back and its ready for the hill.
