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 .

“Up for your consideration is a 1951 Willys M38 Army Jeep (date of delivery Aug-1951) that would make a great project or starter Jeep. Has an original M38 motor 4 cyl in it that starts and runs. Drives and goes in and out of 4×4 and through all the gears. She’s going to need a lot of TLC as she was neglected in the past. Floor pans are shot as is most of the body, but I’ve seen guys restore something a thousand times worse. Brake lines are mia, but I’ve pulled all the hubs and the wheel cylinders, pads and such look useable. Has a working set of Dualmatic locking hubs on the front. I have a clear VA title in my name (Not registered or tagged). Not wanting to part it out as of yet, but depending on replies, it’s always a possibility. Delivery available for free (withing 50 miles) or we can negotiate a price for further; cash up front. Asking $600 cash obo.”
The seller has some thorough pictures of this jeep.
“Up for auction is a 1951 unrestored, all original, M38 Willys Army Jeep. I have had this M38 for about 9 years. I bought it from a collector in Southern California. Since I got the Jeep it has been stored in my garage. Initially I drove it around town and it ran great. Then I decided to repaint it and let it sit too long without driving it and the leather parts in the carburetor dried out so it would only idle. Then I decided to replace the fuel tank and never had time to finish the project. I am self-employed so free time is hard to find.
This is a nice Jeep but it would benefit from a full restoration. There is some rust at the Hat Channels below the Jeep. That is all I could ever find. It does look like the driver side and passenger side floors were replaced. They are not rusted but they don’t look original to me. I did repalce the front brake cylinders, brake shoes and the Master Cylinder. The tires and tubes were purchsed new about 3 1/2 years ago. They have never been driven on. The Jeep has been stored on jack stands so the Jeep hasn’t been sitting on them either, except for when I took these pictures. I bought new seats years ago but never installed them. it has a full soft top and all of the rods and supports. I think there was a tear in the top along one of the sides. It has the soft doors as well.
The fuel tank is new, as is the sending unit, fuel cap, fuel filler neck and any other fuel tank related parts. The front hubs were rebuilt. I also have an antenna bracket and antenna set which was never installed. The Jeep is 12 volt. I also have all of the available DOD manuals, as well as a few other after market manual and the Military Jeep Restoration DVD video set.”
