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 .
No battery box, so this must be a replacement body.

(07/31/2014) Nice jeep. Seller has to sell as son is too tall already to fit behind the wheel.

Needs some wiring, but sure has potential.
“It runs and drives. Brakes work but I wouldn’t trust them. Needs wired. Gas tank is rusted out. This truck needs work but it’s all there. Clean title in my name. Call me with any Questions.”
It’s a project with a good frame and body, other parts, except for a motor.
“This Jeep is a project that I started about a year ago. I recently inherited another Jeep and do not need this one. This Jeep comes with a brand new body that is still in the shipping crate. It comes with new hood, tailgate, fenders and windshield. This is a late body with all the improvements.This body kit sells for $3749.00. The frame is finished and has all new spring mounts (8), battery tray, front bumper with gussets, rear crossmember with gussets, pedal mount and front shock mounts. This frame has no rust out. All welding is completed. You will not find a better frame. Has 4 new leaf springs. This was a complete Jeep and comes with everything that I have for it except the motor. This Willys has a clear Delaware title in my name. All the hard work is done. This would make a great father and son project or make your old rusty Jeep perfect.”

“1953 WILLYS M38A1 MILITARY JEEP 35,300 MILES VGC
For sale is an original 1953 Willys Military M38A1 Jeep. I obtained this Jeep from the McClure Fire Department in Ohio several years ago. It was occasionally used to plow their parking lot and was stored indoors for the most part. It still has many of the military accoutrements such as the convoy blackout marker lights, H.D. bumpers, waterproof ignition, 24 V. electrical system and illuminated high/low red dash lighting.
UPDATE: **Status unknown** Was on eBay (see comments).
Looks lie a good rig. Seller lots all information in a house fire. I’m wondering if he lost the title, too.
“this rig was recreated by a father and son shop in Oaklahoma and then purchased by me. Had house fire and lost all receipts and info but can provide as much info as I can. everything has been rebuilt and gone through including the wiring as the pics will speak for themselves and the unit only has 4500miles since I bought it. there is a 9inch ford in the rear, ramsey winch, alum diamond tool box, beefed suspension, 33×12.50×15 tires on custom wheels and frt disc brakes. the rear main leak is common as it has a rope seal and is available from Napa, this condition probably due to not very much use. I have asked my friend in Montana to list this for me as I have it stored near him 75miles south of missoula mt. Payment will be $500 in his paypal account and the balance by check or funds transfered to an escrow account at my bank. When the check clears both banks or cash clears then unit can be picked up and delivery is possible in a enclosed trailer for a fee. Thanks for viewing my posting.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $2500.
(06/02/2014) This is only 2WD.
“I have a 1946 willys. I’ve been told it has a 327 crate motor in it I believe combined with a turbo 350. I know it will try and stand on two wheels. It is a two wheel drive it came from Arizona. I was given to me but unfortunately I do not fit in it. The tires are in Excellent shape and are pretty much brand new. I haven’t done a lot of investigation into it. It sits in my brothers garage and is started every once in a while. I’ll do my best to answer any questions but I have not done any of the work to it and or purchase it myself so my knowledge on it is very limited. “

Even though the transfer case needs rebuilding, it still may be a good price.
“I’m selling my 1953 Willys jeep. We just don’t go 4 wheeling any more. This jeep has a strong rebuilt 350 engine, over sized radiator, duel under seat fuel tanks, new wiring and fuse block, new gauges, rebuilt transmission, rebuilt front and rear end, storage seat with seat belts in the back, tow hitch, and Warren over drive. The transfer case needs rebuilt due to a baring issue should be an easy fix and maybe $100 in parts. I have a bikini top, radiator cover, and repair manual for it as well. The jeep has a heater, windshield wipers, windshield washer and pump. The heater core was boiled and repaired 2 years ago. I have clean title. Asking 2500 OBO. This jeep is a great rock crawler and does great in the hills.”
