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 is a fairly stock jeep . Some changes were made to the charging system and lights. I have most of the original items that were removed . Data plates are still on it . This jeep has no rust .This jeep is registered and drives fine . Would be perfect for a full military restoration or to just cruise town .It also has a roll bar and tow bar .”

Looks like a good price.
“for sale is an all original, no rust, no restoration 1953 m38a1. This is the C model that was built for the large recoiless gun. Has slotted windshield and heavy suspension. Started out as civil defense jeep for Clinton, IA. ended up being stored for years in basement of Savanna Army Hospital. It is street legal with new front leaf springs, brakes, master cylinder, wheel cylinders, and new tires. It also has a 6′ western plow with it. The mounting hardware for the plow is made so that it bolts to the jeep using existing threaded holes in the frame, as not to alter the frame in any way.”
Rough, but might have some value.

Could be a great project for somone that has the time to put it back together. I don’t have the time anymore. If you are interested please contact me for viewing.”
Looks solid.
“Not representing M38A1 as “restored” but a great brought back to life Parade unit you can have fun in without worrying about scratching it.
Fully rebuilt engine by Ball Engines – less than 500 miles on the jeep since rebuilt as a whole unit.
5 almost brand new GOODYEAR MT/R Kevlar tires. Might not be era correct but these babies are sweet.
Almost all new canvas with its padding for all the seats – YES it has the passenger and rear seats.
Converted was the unhooking of the voltage regulator which is still mounted but a CAT 24 volt alternator installed – system is still 24 volt. 24 volt battery has a disconnect switch.
*needs wiper arms with blades – dash cluster wiring harness – air filter clamp and whatever else you prefer to do to it to make it yours. But we drive it when we can and have fun.
BOS sale only and sale is CASH ONLY – no money orders – no certified checks so do not offer.
Do not contact with ANY solicitations and non serious questions about the jeep.
Buyer responsible for driveaway or transportation after sale.”
