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 .

“I have a 1957 Jeep Willy that I am no longer wanting to hang onto. It was a gift from my uncle and he has since passed away. It has all the original features that this era jeep would have, it only has $15,000 miles on it and it still has the original tires. This is a once in a lifetime find, and at a extremly low price. Please if interested contact me at 304-657-7523 thanks”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5000.
(03/21/2013) This must have gone through 1980s modification. Those mustang rear lights were popular. Nice rims.

“1952 M38-A1 in original condition Military Jeep with original dash plaques. Has original blackout lights. Has the military manual also. The Jeep is just like it came from the factory Also has the original heavy duty PTO winch Has under water fording kit installed. Just needs the two upright tubes to keep the exhaust working and the air intake when you ford rivers. (Submerge it) etc.. Currently registered on a non-op in my name. Has a clear title. The only thing not military are larger tires to make it go faster on the highway The hard top with doors is available for an extra $500. Can’t do pictures. If you want to see what it looks like Google it. Remember to take off $500.00 if you don’t want the hard top. Making it $1600. Which is a steal. I’m not open to offers”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5800
This appears solid.
“Very clean, 4 wheel drive, 4 speed with high and low range, motor has less than 10 miles on it after complete overhaul. New pistons, valves, valve guide, and harden seats.

This looks good. It has the wrong driver-side fender.

The whole jeep has been gone through and checked. I only have a few little tinker things left to fix on it not much. I am going to finish it. kept inside under cover simply because it is beautiful. The only reason I am selling it is because I need the room in the shop.
If interested call five41five23nine303 thanks.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was Make Offer.
This is an incomplete project with a mix of parts.
“I have cj2a that I was building,but I have to many projects to finish this one. It is a cj2a body mounted to a m38a1 frame. The frame is straight and crack free plus has been sand blasted and in primer. The body is in good shape for its age and new floor pans started; just need to finish welding in. It is sitting on dana 30 with disc brakes and rear dana 44. I have no motor transmission or transfer case. Plans where to put a chevy motor in it. Open to trades for 4×4 truck or suv.”
What surprised me about this was the floor. Looks like it is inside a kitchen! No title.
“For sale is a 1955 M38A1. I have not done anything to it other then get the engine running. I have videos of the motor running that I can send you if interested. Motor runs really good. Did a vaccum test and compression test on the motor. Vacuum test showed a steady 19 inches which falls into the correct range of 17-21. Test showed no signs of problems using steps from original maintenance manuals. Compression test results were Cylinder 1- 80psi Cylinder 2-50psi Cylinder 3-100psi and Cylinder 4-105psi. Cylinder 1 and 2 are low due to a loose head bolt between both cylinders. Block needs to be tapped to correct broken thread for that one head bolt. All other head bolts are good. Parts on the motor in video are not included, see pictures. What you see in the photos is what comes with the jeep. Hard to see in the pictures but included are fenders, grill, and hood. I do have additional small parts that we can discuss adding to the jeep if interested. Previous owner started the body work but did not finish and undercoated the bottom of the body. Still needs work but in a lot better condition then most projects. Glass in windshield is good. Check out other photos for the additional parts. Please email me for any questions or additional photos. I can provide more detailed pictures of anything you want. I will provide my phone # in an email if interested in talking. Comes with Bill of sale only.”

Might be a good parts jeep. 5 speed engines?
“I have a 1957 Willys project jeep. It comes with 2 4 cyl 5 speed engines. It is the perfect project jeep for someone to restore. Asking 1000 obo or possible trade.”
UPDATE:**SOLD** Was $1100.
Maybe this runs?
“If you ever wanted to fix a jeep from the ground up here is your jeep old Willy 1953 with the first CJ body. Here is all the info on it just getting to old to crawl under and just want to clean out the garage. Talk to my son and will get you a real fun jeep to have that is one of a kind.”
This appears solid.
“Best Cash Offer!
Invested well over $10K in the last 12 months, not including the price of the jeep.
It’s a 53 titled as a 56. We had a 56 body tub shipped from Indiana before the build.
Lots of new parts to include motor, gaskets, fuel tank and lines, fuel pump coil, dash, gauges, wiring harness, oil lines, condenser, tires, wheel bearings, steering assembly and a bunch more.
Everything works great, a little hesitation from the carb when cold, but other than that, vehicle runs great. Minor TLC just like any other older vehicle. Drove it every day last summer, just sits in storage now. I would be willing to entertain trades, looking for a 78-79 Ford Bronco XLT Ranger, must be mint. Have cash to put towards any trade. Please include a phone number in your reply as I need to be able to filter the spam.”
