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 .
Maybe some value here, especially given the Cab Enclosure top.

This is an interesting rig. It’s listed as a 1956, but it’s got a ’52/’53 hinged grille. It’s got an M-38A1 body, but doesn’t have the battery cowl lid or lip.
“Cute and fun to drive…5 New tires from Discount tires $1,000…new exhaust system from manifold to rear…new front brakes.
Motor is a 232 Ambassador 6 not the small 4 & 6 cylinder motors offered.
All Canvas in good shape…windows zip down…ready for a winch…has hitch for towing.
Motor does not smoke at all….fresh points and new Coil…fresh Oil Change and Filter…fresh fuel filter and new air cleaner.
I have some extra parts such as races and bearings and seals for the front locking hubs…so ask for them if you buy the jeep.”
UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was $2980.
The windshield on this M-38A1 appears fixed. This may have a V-6. The price has dropped on this one.

Has a few dings here and there.
“I have a 1952 M38A1 first generation Military Jeep and 1942 M100 WWII for sale $14,000.00 OBO or trade for a pickup that runs good and has three or four door. The Jeep is all original except for the oil gauge but I have in garage just need to find sending unit. It is 24 volt kept it all original has less than 1000 miles on rebuilt engine from Pennsylvania. Put a lot of time and money in jeep and was used for funerals and parades in Paradise California.
Hate to get rid of it my grandfather rode in it just before he passed wanted to keep it but my family is in need of a new engine for my 1996 GMC K1500 and a transmission for my wife’s car plus a few gifts under the tree for my ten year old son would be nice. I am the commander for the Disabled American Veterans in Paradise and the guys are going to miss it but my family has to come first. If interested give me a holler I only do business local or in the States. No foreign dealings unless you come to US with cash. No checks of any kind cash only or go together to bank together.”

This also has the tailgate.Not sure how much value is here.
“Truck utility 1/4 Ton 4 x 4 M38A1.
Date Delivered: July 1953.
Manufacturer’s Serial Number: 51801.
First with acceptable best offer takes it home! Make me an offer I can’t refuse and it’s yours. I thought I could take on this little fix-up project but I was simply deceiving myself… I don’t have the time. But, for someone with that loves old classics this is a dream task.”

What’s that on the back? A feeder of some type?
“Up for sell is a 1954 Jeep Willys M38A1. It has been great to us but we no longer need it due to us selling our ranch. It was repainted in a line-x paint about 4 years ago and had a majority of things replaced. It has new mud tires and new locking warn hubs put on before we parked it a couple of months ago. 3 Speed manual, 4X4 works great just needs a carburetor kit and a battery and will be up and running. It can be started if you would like to see it on. We also do have original fuel tank but had a small leak so we took it off but it can be repaired. Can send more info and better picture on request. No Title, Bill of Sale.”
