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 .
Has some parts value at the very least. Also had some Allstate or Husky hubs.

“Rust free1952 M38A1 in very good condition. Period correct paint color with correct military vehicle markings. Older restoration with like-new canvas with a working military radio. Too much to list so please check out all the pictures. I Will upload pictures shortly. Please email if you have any questions or desire specific pictures. Runs great looks outstanding. Won’t find a better-priced M38A1. New steering worm shaft, ball joints, U-joints, and shackles. Period correct locking hubs and so much more using original NOS parts. Also has the original engine with matching MD data plate numbers. Battery tender wired into the 24-volt system”
UP”DATE: **SOLD** Was $5500.
I don’t see many M-38A1s with dually’s and the extra fender.
“This is a really neat 1952 Willys M38 A1 Korean War piece of History. It has the extremely rare dual rear wheel conversion, it still has the machine gun mount brackets in the rear, it has the blackout lighting, and it has a PTO mounted underneath. The Jeep starts and drives, but it needs a complete restoration before it is roadworthy. I got it from an estate, so I know no history on it, I was planning on redoing it, but it is more of a project than I can handle. For someone that has the knowledge, tools, and resources to redo this, it would be an amazing addition to any collection. The price is as low as it is going to go. So many people have said they’re coming to get it, or have tried to lowball me, that this is at. The price is $5,500 firm.”
The odd addition of the external radiator is due to the installation of a V-8. It includes a trailer. This also has the early Husky hubs.

“One the straightest Willys M38A1’s I’ve come across. Runs good all the gears work high and low 283 engine. 12volt. If someone was going to do a restore this would be a good one to do it with. Comes with trailer. $7500 cash”
There might be some value in parts here, but what caught my eye was the unusual approach to installed a saginaw box. It looks like the frame was sliced and a new piece added on that has a hub to it.
