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 .
This appears in pretty good shape.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay
(05/01/2010) I like this one. However, the engine hasn’t been run in a while. Also, rear drivelines generally don’t just bend, so i suspect the rear end might need a rebuilt.
“1954 Willys M170 Front Line Ambulance. Serial #10538. This was running when it was parked. I don’t know much about the Jeep other than what I was told by the Rancher I got it from. NO TITLE ranch jeep sence late 70s was parked in a barn after rearend went out. I towed it home with no problems. Rear driveline is bent, I do not hear any noise in rearend when it is puled with towbar. This jeep was at an airport when the rancher aquired it. Has the military radio, mike, and loud speker in the dash. see pictures. I have not done anything with it SOLD AS-IS NO WARRANTY. I can store for awhile but will be outside. CASH or BANK DRAFT ONLY!! ”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $18,000.
“Beautifull rare 1954 M170 ambulance Jeep in great condition!”
UPDATE: Still Available. A new pic added.
(03/27/2010) It’s hard to tell much from this image. The price is right.
“Please call 502-807-9947 for questions. I will email pictures if interested. I am parting this out. Please call or email for prices and parts. Good gas tank $275.00 Thanks for looking!”

Here’s a rare M-170 that needs some restoration.
“Please call 502-807-9947 for questions. I will email pictures if interested. Thanks for looking!”

No pics and no specs.
“Please call 502-807-9947 for questions. I will email pictures if interested. Thanks for looking!”
UPDATE: The seller has dropped the price to $2000 and is throwing in a beat up 1952 M-38. I’d say this is a good price.
(12/27/09) The seller notes that this would not make a good original restoration projection.
“I have a 1952 M38 for sale along with a 1955 M170. The M38 is still 24 volt and would make a great restoration project, it does not run. The M170 has been converted to 12 volt and has aftermarket seat frames, it would also make a great project. The M170 was a military ambulance when it was in service. Both are classic vehicles and would be great for trail jeeps or collectibles. I priced them together and cheap because i need to get rid of both of them. All i am asking is to get my money back out of them. Please call or text 334-750-1062 and ask for Mac. I am 25-30 miles outside of columbus. Please no emails. Thanks for looking!”

UPDATE: Price dropped to $1000. It runs. Looks like a great price to me.
(07/13/09) I wonder how bad the inside rust really is.
“Up for sale is one of the rarest jeeps ever produced. It is a millitary M170 field ambulance. It has been converted to 12 volts. It does have rust in the bed and passenger floor. It would make a great restoration project or hunting vehicle. It runs and drives. The 4wd also works. The frame and drive train are in good condition. The driverside windsheild also has a crack in it. I do not have a title will be sold with a bill of sale.”

It is definitely a project.
