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 might have some value given the newer-looking rims and tires.

“Definitely a collector’s item. New tires, new seats that have not yet been installed. Lift kit”
Still has the 24 volt system.

“Owned for over 20 years and driven very little.
Mileage 31,402
Runs very well. Very little rust.
I added one leaf spring to all 4 wheels. (The springs can easily be removed.) I put on muffler and dual exhaust. Reupholstered seats. I put 2 new 12-volt batteries in last year. Tires are in pretty good shape.
Look at pictures!
No tire kickers; serious inquiries only.
I listed the condition as “good” only because the vehicle is 66 years old, but I consider the condition as “very good””
One of these runs; the other is a parts jeep.

“Excellent running and driving military Jeep with zero rust or body damage. The grey primer was previous owners concept of camouflage!! Original drivetrain, military hurricane engine. Hard top and doors. Hard top has a rust hole on the top. The Jeep is so solid and mechanically excellent. 12 volt. Easy to restore to olive drab color and it true glory for very little money. Wheels as you see are not correct but make great driving on street.”
Looks pretty stock.

“$500 and 15 hours and it can be running and driving great. We parked it when we were putting a tune up on it about 4 years ago. Points were bad and then I got sidetracked.
It is 24 volt. It does seem to be all original.
After you, Grease it. Batteries. Coil, fluids and it’s close to on it’s way. This isn’t a big project. It’s some minor repairs and you’re off. Tires are excellent.
Bill of sale only. Spell it Willys. Willy’s. Jeep.
Not a cj5 cj7.
Military
Almost no rust through. It has been restored before. Surface rust where the paint has worn.
I have a bunch of other pictures detailing the body. “
Solid looking M-38A1.

“Very stock original parts: CA and AZ owned. Basically rust free, small surface rust here and there.
Starts, runs and drives as it should. 4×4 engages easily. Most gauges work, voltage not always.
Has solid bolt on roof, doors, and glass not currently mounted that comes with it.
This is not the jeep to put a V8 in and build your dream rock crawler.
Unbolt the roll bar and change the tires and its back to stock.
In the first three months of 1953, Willys built the new improved military Jeep with three distinct differences.
Early 1953 have two piece front fenders, front grill has two hinges for easy maintenance, and the hood battery cover has four straps not the two that all others have. By April 1953 changes were made and those three characteristics were dropped.
Title in hand, currently on CA non-op Zero snog needed, Zero back DMV costs
Looking to trade for something sporty and I’m willing to add cash to the deal up to 10k.”
This might be worth a look.
