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 .
I don’t know how rare these are, but I imagine there can’t be too many left.
“I have an M151 engine and Zenith carb. Which I believe have never been installed. The fellow I got it from uncrated it (nooooooooo!) a couple of years ago. Notice the picture of the valve and the original green ord. oil filter.”

UPDATE: The XM-384 seems to be both a Mutt variant prototype along with the trailer. Leo found these photos that include the Mutt variant with its trailer. He found the photos on G503.
Steve spotted this unique trailer. According to the seller, this is a one-of-a-kind trailer. It was manufactured by Detroit Arsenal and built from aluminum.
“This is the trailer built for experimental Vechicle XM384 1957 (Detroit Arsenal). Its one of one. No others where ever built.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
Sounds like this runs and drives.
“Willys jeep ready to off road.”
UPDATE: **SOLD**. Was $3500.
There could be value here. Note the WWII reference.
“I have an army jeep from WWII for sale. Used it at my farm house but no longer have the farm so it has been sitting in my yard. Hasn’t been started in over a year. I don’t have time to mess around with it anymore so I am selling it. Asking $3500 Obo.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4000.
It’s not starting, but for the price this could be a good deal if the fix is simple.
“1965 ford mutt army jeep. Israeli army airborne style . All the gear on pics come with jeep . Selling as is . Jeep was parked in July and was not driven since . Will turn but won’t start . ”
UPDATE: **Sold** Was $6000.
Eric spotted this good-priced M-151.
“1971 Army AMC Jeep built for the Vietnam war, recommissioned for Desert Storm. Only 32,144 miles runs great, great condition inside and out. More info, pics, test drive etc available upon request.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
No title, but may be a good price.
“I have too many toys and need to give one up to a good home. It’s an AM General MUTT, M151 A2. It has been approved in the state of Washington to be street legal and road worthy. It sat for 25 years in a barn before I got it and the owner lost the original title. It now has been registered with the state and on the waiting period for pink slip, but vehicle can still be sold. It has the collector plate on it now and that too can be transferred over to the new buyer.
I had the tank cut, cleaned and gel coated. It was really bad. The tires are original and so is the hoses and tubing. It runs great, but being what it is, it’s not a daily driver. LOL I really believe it’s all original. The carburetor does need to be rebuilt, because it really is sluggish on the road. I did install two aftermarket batteries because the others were not original so I didn’t worry about it too much. It is a 24v system. Other than that, it’s available for you to take it home today. Yes you can drive it home, but until you get use to it, I would suggest you use a flat bed. I do drive it to the store every once in a while and get people talking to me a lot about it or I get a lot of thumbs up going down the road.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
Jim spotted this good price on a pair of M-151s projects or parts jeeps.
“Pair of M151MUTTs one was produced by Willys which is a 63 model. The other was produced by Ford and was built in 66. Both are uncut. Neither run. The 66 has a title but the 63 does not. There are spare parts and a spare complete power pack which consists of radiator engine and transmission.“
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay
This is an interesting design.
“You are bidding on an original press photo from 2013 featuring The quarter ton Ford XM151 “Jeep” developed for the Army Ordinance by Ford Motor Co, undergoes tests at Aberdeen roving Grounds in 1954. A new four speed forward transmission and overhead valve engine provide increased performance. . Photo is 16.5 x 12.5 in size.”
