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 .
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1950.
It’s a project.

The 1947 Craftsman Annual Project Magazine contains forty-four wide ranging projects for the builder who was to try constructing everyone. Of course, there’s a battery toy jeep project among the items (directions shown below), but also included in the magazine are plans for building from scratch a welder, a battery-less telephone, a Jolly Roger boat, a hand vise, a rocket, a farm tractor (from car parts), and much more.
UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was $5000.
Appears worth a look.

“1952 flatfender jeep. This is a trail jeep. Has a clean title and is registered. I say it’s a trail jeep because it will only go 50 mph. I drive on the street short distances every couple weeks. It has a Chevy 4.3 V6 engine, a sm420 granny low 4 speed transmission, and a Dana/spicer 18 transfer case. Dana 44 axles out of a wagoneer front has a lock right locker and rear is a spool. Both have 5.38 ratios. 36×12.5-15 super swamper radials almost new on beadlocks rims. 4 wheel disc brakes. Spring over suspension in stock yj wrangler springs.”
Mark posted this M-38A1 over at warjeeps.com.
“Either a 52 or 53 willys M38a1, has been converted to 12 volt system. Engine runs strong, all four wheel drive low and high range work. New shackles, kingpin bearings, tie rods, and draglink. Needs original steering wheel put back on, has aftermarket now. Steering gear has slight leak and needs new gasket. Has hardtop and aftermarket heater in it. New exhaust this year. Carb is aftermarket solex. Starts everytime, runs good, just needs little work in steering etc….Not a lot of rust, floorpans good, a little bondo here and there but not alot. Would be a good candidate for restoration.”
