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 .
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6500.
Looks in good shape.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
the seller lists this as a M-38, but as J.R. points out, it looks more like a CJ-3A.
It runs and drives.
“ORIGINAL 1952 M38 MILITARY JEEP WITH ORIGINAL 4 CYLINDER WILLYS JEEP ENGINE THAT RUNS AND DOES NOT SMOKE. BODY ON THIS JEEP IS BADLY RUSTED AND NEEDS REPLACEMENT OR YOU CAN REMOVE THE BODY AND MAKE A HELL OF A “MUDDER” OR HUNTING VEHICLE OR JUST USE IT AS-IS WITHOUT DOING A THING TO IT. THIS IS A ROUGH JEEP AS SHOWN BY THE PICTURES BUT IT STILL HAS THE POTENTIAL TO MAKE A GREAT RIDE. $1500 OBO. ”
UPDATE: Status Unknown. Was listed for $8750.
I sure don’t see to many ‘restored’ M-38s sporting a CJ-2A windshield.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8000
This has a custom top — I’d like to see pics of that.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was an in-person-auction.
No details on the Jeep, though it appears to be missing a radiator, so I suspect it doesn’t run. The auction occurs Saturday, July 31, 2010.

UPDATE: Status Unknown. Was $10,500.
It looks shiny and sharp, but I think the seller would have been better off to paint this a more historic color.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000. It’s an APU hood.
Brent spotted this ad. He noted that the body appears to be a CJ-3A, yet the grille looks to be a M-38 grille. So, I can’t say for sure if the foundation for this is a CJ-3A or a M-38. The bumper on this kind of looks DJ-3Aish as well.
“1952 Jeep Willy’s. Runs. Rancho 2″ lift, brand new Interco Super Swamper TSL SX tires.”
Here’s a nice looking M-38.

Brett spotted this M-38. The cage looks good and the body appears to have little rust. This might be a good price.
