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 solid, but may have been patched along the passenger side.

The pictures are not flattering. I see lots of scrap metal.

Here’s a rare Canadian version of the M-38 built by Ford. Nicely restored rig.

I wonder if it runs?

Well, besides the fact that M-38s weren’t made in 1949, this doesn’t look anything like a M-38. Given what appears to be full floaters in the rear and no drain hole in the side, I’d guess this is more of a CJ-2A/MB hybrid.
“This is a nice m38 Willys jeep. I have the full top and also bikini top for it. I just had the starter rebuilt and relaxed the starter sylenoid. It runs and drives good and the 4 wheel drive works great. This is a original m38 and still has the floor bracket for a heavy machine gun mount. I also have a original set of Willys wheels with military tires and brand new tubes that go with it.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
This looks like a nice M-38.
“This jeep was just completed, it runs and drives. The motor was gone through and is in good working order.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was no price.
There are a mix of parts and rolling frames.
“1942 TO 1952
WILLYS JEEP
PLUS 4 PARTS JEEPS”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3800
This has a M-38 windshield and I think it has a glove box on the dash, too, so I think it is a M-38 rather than the CJ-3A indicated by the seller. Or, it is a mix of parts.
“66K Miles. Decent condition. Comes with Tow Bar & Soft Top. Less than 500 miles traveled in last 10 years. Runs great; but, needs brake work.”
UPDATE: Status Unknown. Was priced at $1600.
This runs.
