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.
(03It has a hole where the spare tire carrier used to be, so it could use some patching.
“I’m selling my ’51 Willys Jeep. It is a M-38 model. The body is in really outstanding condition on this unit and it also performs mechanically outstanding as well. It has never been restored and I guess one would refer to it as a survivor. I have owned this jeep for awhile now and have preformed any maintenance or repairs as they were needed. Things I recall replacing are radiator, master cylinder, oil filter canister, front one piece axles, seats reupholstered, new top with new hardware, new shifter boots and maybe more. Only rust it has is small spot where the spare tire was mounted. I meant to repair but never got to it. The jeep still has all the original drivetrain. 4 wheel drive works good. Has very good factory installed heater with defroster.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
