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 $8000
“1951 Willys Military Jeep, Garage Kept, runs well, spare tire, spare gas tank, I am selling this for a friend and don’t know much of the details, but feel free to ask and I will find out.”
UPDATE: Still available
This might be a pretty good price. The motor runs and everything looks cleaned up. Just need a body, wiring and above frame parts.
“This is a 1950 Military M38 jeep chassis with title. Price includes grill, radiator, running RMC motor, transmission, transfer case, third members, wheels tires etc. Needs the tub, fenders, hood and the miscellaneous stuff to make it original (see below). ALSO available thru another seller (a friend) another M38 with tub. Good fenders and running gear, good windshield, tail gate, grill and radiator. No seats, no dash (I have one). Tub needs work, hood was cut to make room for the carb of the 283 motor (does not run), includes roll bar, expensive tires and rims and some extras. Asking $500 (see last pix). Combine the two and make a great military jeep then sell off the extra parts ($100 for the pair). Parts to complete a restoration are avail thru vendors advertising in The Supply Line mag of the MVPA. Buy both and I can deliver them in one load if you cover the fuel and its not too far from the Seattle area. I also have a 10KW generator on Craigs List that is powered by a WWII Willys motor $500.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1700.
UPDATE: Still available. Better pics.
The bumper doesn’t look stock. For the price, it’s a bit rough.

I like a lot of things about this jeep, but I don’t get the bumpers — those are bumpers, aren’t they? As far as I know, M-38s were stopped in ’52.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $300
It appears this is either a M-38 body or a replacement body. For $300 it looks like it has a variety of parts, including an almost full cage.
“it’s got a great body on it, very straight. I don’t have the title for it, but it’s a great jeep for parts or whatever you wanna do with it.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500

Rollcage is now painted olive drab along with back tube bumper and star on hood. Also now has 31×10.5 tires on black spoke wheels.”
Are those some kind of blackout headlights? I haven’t seen those before. There’s a few minor things to quibble with, but it sure looks great. I really have to start building that eWillys travel budget!
“ENGINE, TRANSMISSION, REAR AXLE ALL REBUILT, CORRECT FORDING EQUIPMENT, BLACK LIGHT, RIFLE RACK,CORRECT ENGINE,CORRECT RIMS, NEARLY EVERYTHING IS CORRECT, THERE ARE A FEW THINGS, THAT ARE NOT QUITE MODEL CORRECT BUT ARE REALLY CLOSE, NEW RADIATOR, NEW TYRES ….”
