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 August 21, 1942, photo in the Nogalas International Newspaper didn’t provide any names, but does make it appear that these airmen are enjoying the ride.
Has a replacement body along with a variety of mods.

A recently rebuilt 1600cc Dual port VW engine that starts easily and runs good.
4 speed manual transmission that is quiet and works as it should.
The body is a Willys M38 military Jeep steel body with folding windshield, no rust and the diamond plate corner pieces are just decorative.

This Jeep is ready to go and could be driven home.

Looks like a good one fore someone.

My great uncle had a low mileage early CJ-5 jeep that was rarely used and rarely left the farm (sold before his death; sadly I couldn’t get it at the time). So, it’s possible the 8200 mileage is correct. However, with that low of mileage, I’m surprised the heater (or whatever was installed on the passenger side — see engine compartment photo — isn’t still there).

“This Jeep is completely original. It has 8200 original miles. It spent most of its adult life in Eastern Wa. Everything works…4 wheel drive..runs well. Has always been garaged.”
Has a civilian engine (or head at the very least) and some other updates. It’s listed as a 1942, but I don’t see any reason to think that year is correct.

“1941 willy jeep new tires new trasmison cluch shock toon up”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $750.
“Second Top is a Willys Jeep Factory approved Koenig brand all Steel Jiffy Half Cab model 325. This model half cab top is correct for CJ3A/ CJ3B model Willys Jeeps. Top is in overall excellent condition complete with Doors ,and all mounting pieces. Original Paint, with great patina as well as original Koenig Tag still intact. Top could use a good cleaning and if it ever warms up here I will get a chance to do that. All glass good.
Whats left of an original factory approved Jeep sticker is still visible in rear window. Like the previous top listed with a little work and good cleaning this would be an excellent top for a 3A/ 3B restoration or Daily driver. Same as top above once its paid for ill be happy to hold onto it for a reasonable time period to allow new owner to come get it.
Just thought I would give all the Ewillys guys and girls a shot at these tops before I went the Ebay route $750 OBO Im open to a package price on both tops if someone is interested.”

“For sale is a Willys Jeep M38 /CJ2A Arctic Top, Windshield Frame and Doors. Over all pretty decent condition, with all glass good except for rear hatch glass. All insulation still intact,as is original Tag. Windshield frame is very nice as are the doors with the exception of some of the window frame metal needed some work.
Ive been told these tops will also fit CJ2A model jeeps as well as possibly CJ3A models using the Windshield frame that come with top. Anyone have any info on this ill be happy to comment on this and ad it to listing. These Tops look really cool when mounted and with a little work this one would be a great addition to an M38 restoration, driver or Winter Wheeler.
If you do a search on Willys Arctic Tops you can see some great pics of this type of Top installed. Located in Storrs CT , and I will be happy to hold top until new owner is able to come get it. Could possibly ship through Fastenal but not sure as there blue line for shipping is down right now, so might have to be a You Ship type of deal or come and get it. $650 OBO”
