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 .

Lee’s shared some updated photos on his M-38. His goal has been to restore it back to stock. Though he’s got a great deal of stock jeep to use, as he disassembled it he discovered a few more problems than he’d planned. Despite some unexpected issues, he’s been working all summer since Ann and I visited he and his family last April in San Saba, Texas. He doesn’t have a great deal of time, between his job, farm, kids and wife, but he’s been making the most of it. He tells me he is almost done.
Here’s the jeep before disassembly:
The body:
Some body work completed.
The Frame:
Plenty of scrubbing needed.
First coat of paint.
Partial assembly
This photo that must have been posted on eBay at some point was shared on eBay.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $27,000.

It’s got a couple patches in the back of the body.
“Obviously, any 69 year old vehicle is a head-turner. This one does that and more. Your brain triggers, and suddenly your back in the armed forces or perhaps on your grandfathers farm. Or maybe your sitting in that sand pile with a toy jeep in one hand and GI Joe in the other.
I,ve owned this Willys for 4 years here in Massachusetts. I bought it in Georgia and had it shipped here. Its history starts from a Willys Jeep showroom in Chicago, to a farm outside the city. 1946 was the first year a civilian could purchase direct from a showroom, all before were strickly military vehicles. Available only thru military surplus outlets. From the Chicago farm it went to a “gentleman’s” farm in Georgia. This family used it for hunting deer and other animals for many years. Since bringing it here to Massachusetts, the first year, it was a daily driver to the coffee shop, then it sat as I was out of the country for 2 years. This past year, I’ve had the transmission, clutch and transfer case overhauled. I’m leaving again and want someone else to enjoy and love it as I’m not sure of when I may return.
Not shown in the pictures, but does come with it….side doors matching the roof and a “V” tow attachment for the front. Any normal pick-up can pull it with a normal trailer hitch.
Lots more to say, if your serious, email me your number for me to call or sit and write me what your concerns are.”
