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 .

“Body is removed from frame ready to restore, engine is froze up call 541-473-9200
Do have loader to load on a trailer.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $10,500.
It looks like a mix of civilian and M-38 parts.
“1952 Willys M38, Restored, no rust, runs great, only 8k miles.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3800.
This still runs and drives. It has the wrong tailgate though and few minor mods.
“NO FRILLS, JUST A NICE REALIABLE VEHICLE USED FOR HUNTING EVERY YEAR. HAS WATERPROOF IGNITION,EXTRA WHEELS,JEEP STAMPED ON TAILGATE. WASN’T LICENSED UNTIL 52OR53 BY CO NAT GUARD”
This looks like a solid combo.
“Once retired from service with the military, this M38 Willys was used by a city in Colorado as a spray vehicle until purchased by a civilian here in Kansas and partially restored. Jeep runs and drives very well. All lights work, including trailer lights. Jeep has good tires, as well as trailer; one tire is new. Includes a new vinyl top and doors. Must be purchased as a set.”

“ld army jeep runs good. Call Dwayne 302-228-5763”
UPDATE: Still Available
(07/26/2012) I’m gonna guess that this is a M-38 body and front clip on a CJ-2A frame and possibly drive train. The gas inlet looks more civilian than military though. The tailgate is civilian, too.

This has surface rust, but it appears solid. This has some unusual seat covers.
“1950 M38 Willys Jeep, Hard top, straight 4 cylinder, 24 volt system. 90-95% original, good mechanical shape, needs body work. Heater already added to jeep.”
Frank found himself a rare M-38CDN and offered to share some photos.
He writes, “Just wanted to let you know that after looking for one of these since 1979/80, I finally aquired an m-38. a candian one at that! I’m quite excited about that, because only 2135 were ever built between feb and nov ’52. I found it on kijiji.ca in Fort st. john,BC. that’s 700km (460 mi.) from my place in Edmonton. I Drove out with my trailer to look at it fully prepared to return empty if the jeep was a rust bucket. It would have been a 1000 mi trip for nothing. Needless to say, it was not a wasted trip. I’s nearly all there, but the data plates and gauges got sand blasted by a previous owner; not the guy i bought it from. It’s 24 volt still and has almost all the stuff needed for fording. I’m sending a few shots of the trip and the jeep at home. I’ll keep you up to date on the resto. I’m looking to make it as stock as possible but also use it as a driver.”
UPDATE: Sold. Was listed at $8000.
This looks like a solid M-38. The title is TN, but I believe Winchester is in KY.
“Nice running M38 jeep, 1952 model with Tennessee title, new tires, new batteries and recently rebuilt engine. No trades”
