About eWillys
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.
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 .
Jim forwarded this project. Rust situation looks light.

(11/17/2015) This appears to be the same jeep that was sold a few years ago, but it’s condition appears to be worsened. If it has the “314” on the fenders, then it is the same one.
“1954 Willys Jeep it is actually a Mp38a it has a Buick 231 odd fire V6 with power steering also has headers. It is 3 speed manual with twin stick transfer case At one point it was the brookville Fire dept. grass unit. It is great running and driving jeep it has a lot of new front end parts on it. I took the gas tank out that sets under the drivers seat and put one underneath the back put its not hooked up yet I put a boat tank in the back just to be able to move it around you can drive it it could also use floor pans it has had all new rear tub section replaced with little work this could be a very nice jeep. ”
Soft looks in pretty good shape. There’s value here.
“Great project car. Originally deployed as a Marine Ordinance vehicle. Engine requires work to run (I know of a rebuilt one available for $600 – easy to put in), and brakes need work. Rolls and shifts through all gears easily. Converted from 24V to 12V. Some rust, but solid car. Odometer shows 52,085 – unknown if accurate. Original placards show the history of this solid vehicle. Full manual reprints go with car. Let me know if you have questions or want more pictures, or want to see it. Some additional parts convey with vehicle. You will need a trailer to take it away.”
“1954 M38A1 Body off restoration. Rebuilt F134 engine, new clutch, brakes, fuel system,wiring . Converted to 12v, turn signals, eelectric wipers. All 24v take-offs included.
New Saturn Overdrive unit ; Older Beachwood canvas top, side curtains, doors.

“Original, partially restored military Jeep. Solid and straight. Runs, drives, and stops. 4 cyl., 3-speed.
Was used for years by a local fire department, so it has been painted red (with evidence of green, primer. and blue(?). More pics/info by text.”
“1965 Willys M38A1 Army Jeep & 1952 Dodge M37 Powerwagon. Jeep has WW2 Flathead 4 engine. Powerwagon has mopar 318 engine with 727 automatic transmission, divorced transfer case & original running gear. Also has hidden hydraulic dump body. These are for restoration or parts. These are not running condition they are priced low because they need work, don’t bother unless you’re looking for parts or a project. This is a package deal $2500 takes both. I don’t need to sell them I just could use the space so don’t come trying to lowball. The truck has been titled but the jeep never has so it will come with a bill of sale. Get them out of my yard! ”
“All original USMC radio Jeep with fresh restoration including all new canvas and paint. no rust very straight body. still on the 24v system runs and drives great. clean title with current tags. ready for the trail, parades or car shows.”
(09/21/2016) I thought this was a stock M-38A1 until I spotted the engine. Still would make a fine parade jeep.
“Converted to 12v: Ford 3.2 litre 4 cylinder motor. In great running condition, all major maintenance items recently done, i.e.:
* new timing belt
* brakes overhauled
* transmission and transfer case overhaul w/ new seals

New top, new side curtains, new seat frames, new cushions front and rear, new 700 x 16 military tires, signal lights installed, new Jerry can,new steering wheel, new battery new electric fuel pump and a set of doors.
