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 .

(06/21/2013) This appears solid. I lightened the driver’s side of the photo, so some of the white spots might be there because of that process.
“1952 Willys M38 in very nice condition no rust runs excellent”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $13,500
“What you are looking at is a 1950 Willys M38 (MC) military Jeep. These Jeeps were used during the Korean war era. This Jeep has been motor-pool restored and is in near perfect condition. It has been converted to a 12 volt system for the convenience of finding parts locally. I installed a left hand tail light on the right side to make it easier for other drivers to see for safer driving. Drives great. Original 134L engine runs strong with great oil pressure! Original T-90 transmission shifts like new! Older replacement Body tub. No bondo. All metal. Fuel gauge and e-brake are not operational and could use windshield wiper blades. Four wheel drive works as it should! Tires are Nos mud and snow grips that I found in a warehouse and are in good shape. Clear title. It is a hop in and go piece of U.S. history. All you see on the Jeep goes with the Jeep. I will repair anything that may need replacing for a 6 month period as long as the Jeep and the parts to make the repair are both brought to me to do so.
asking 13,500 OBO will consider cash offers. Also on ebay.
Call/text 601-398-7433 ask for Bryan.”

UPDATE: The gas tank outlet might be civilian (looks a little small), but otherwise this appears worth a look.
“Restored, body off restoration, parade ready, Military markings, semi-gloss olive drab.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
There’s some value here, but it’s a project.
“LAST FLAT FENDER JEEP BUILT FOR THE MILITARY M38MC . BUILT FOR THE KOREAN WAR. I HAVE NEVER SEEN ONE OF THESE. VERY RARE. UNDER CARRIAGE IN VERY GOOD CONDITION. NEW 16″ WHEELS WITH GOOD TIRES. BODY NOT IN BAD SHAPE. SEE PICTURES FOR RUST. MOTOR TURNS OVER BUT HAS BAD COMPRESSION, WILL NEED RINGS. GET IT BEFORE I RESTORE IT. ONE LIKE IT FOR SALE IN THOMASVILLE RESTORED”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $700
“Clearing out the yard. Must go!!! Cheap!!! Great Jeep to fix up and take hunting! No worries about scratching it. This military jeep had the wrong engine so we removed it. The transmission and transfercase were tired and also removed. Body is straight. Frame is good but has additional things welded to it. Has a Saginaw Steering Box. Isn’t OEM but it’s like having power steering. So easy to turn! Does not have engine, drive line, and many other bits. I have extra CJ engines and transmissions should you be interested. Take her home and restore this old warhorse to her former glory. At least get her going. No paperwork.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $800.
(04/29/2014) It looks like a parts vehicle.
“1951 M38 Korean War military jeep with arctic military top. Have fenders, hood, grill almost everything for it. Includes set of matching proper military M38 wheels, as seen in picture, leaning against it. $800.
There is an extra M38 motor available for this jeep that is not included in the price of this jeep, but is for sale separately. Will sell arctic top separately if someone is interested for $300. I do not have the rear hatch door to the top. I do have extra hardtop windshields & extra hardtop doors, sold separately.
Mark found this jewel of a PDF at Roscommonequipment.com. We’ve seen a few of these fire jeeps for sale over the years. This document provides some insights into how the pumps work and the type of modifications that were added. The document contains instructions, specifications and detailed drawings.
You can see the whole PDF here: http://www.roscommonequipmentcenter.com/Project%204_Jeep%20Tanker%20Handbook.pdf
Here’s an example of one jeep that was for sale last year. I thought there was another one, but I can’t find it at the moment.
UPDATE: Was eBay. **SOLD**
Pascal forwarded this unique collection for sale on eBay. It includes, an MB,M38,M38A1,M170,M151A1,M422A1. Lots of pics.
“Description
Up for sale is a unique collection of the span of the military jeep generations. Our founder has been collecting these Jeeps for decades and has decided to sell his collection in its entirety.
Over the past decades, our founder collected the cream of what came by our doors, and stored them away in his personal collection. As we are also one of the biggest Jeep Parts distributors in the USA this was a relatively easy task, both to find these jewels and to refit them with whatever parts that were needed. Part can be found at Jeeps Surplus in Oroville, CA. The only vehicle in this collection not running is the “1960 AMC M422A1 MITY MITE”, which hasn’t had any engine work.
The purchase price for the entire jeep collection is $100,000.00. We will not be selling these jeeps individually.”
