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 .
Scott alerted me to this ad. The M-38A1 owner lost his windshield while towing it.

“Lost While Towing — Lost my M38A1 windshield from the trailer while towing between Burnet Texas and Mason Texas on Hwy 29. Reward”
Route where windshield was lost.
UPDATE: SOLD. Was $12,500.
Looks in good shape.
“1954 M38A1 fully equipped. All original. Like new a time capsule. Included is a replica Browning Machine gun . fun machine”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $60k.
This has been available for at least a few months. I wonder how many of these M-38A1s are left with a rifle?
“M38A1 With Mounted M40 106mm Recoilless Rife The M38A1 was the first vehicle to feature the round fender design that would later become the distinguishing body style of the CJ-5 (part of the Universal CJ series). Produced first in 1952, following the retirement of the M38 model, the M38-A1 was re-designed as an “stand-alone” improvement, featuring round front fenders, a contoured hood, a two-piece windshield, top mounted windshield wipers, and powered by the new “Hurricane” F-Head engine and Warner T90 transmission.
If still around, this M-38A1 Fire Jeep from Delaware with its unique rollbar structure shouldn’t be too hard to recognize.

“Up for sale is one 35mm color slide of a fire apparatus. Unknown department in Delaware. Dated April, 1976. MVFD is on the Jeep. This is from the collection of the late Richard M. Adelman of Memphis, TN. Original photographer unknown.”
This is listed as a 1952, but it appears to lack the hinged grille present in early M-38a1s.

“2 jeeps for sale selling as a pair. You could take the 2 and make a nice jeep as all the parts are the same. 1 jeep is a 1957 CJS with engine and transmission that ran good 2 years ago until starter went out. The other is a military M38A1 that had a cannon mount on the back, no motor has transmission. 2000.00 for both”

“1954 Willys-Jeep with matching trailer”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5500.
This has a CJ-5 grille, but an M-38A1 body. The rear has been extended on the body. This might have a set of Thor Auto-matic hubs on it, but I can’t tell for certain.
“V-6, 227 Conversion, hard top and hard doors included, and tow bar”
CJ-5s:
M-38A1s:
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5800.
Robin noticed that this doesn’t have a battery box; yet it does have all the other characteristics of an M-38A1 body (and does not have the CJ-5 body branding). Anyone have any thoughts as to why?
“Has hard top that can be removed new tired and brakes.”
