About eWillys
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.
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 .
“1952 willys M-38 99% rust free, runs great drives needs front brake work, has new master cylinder, title, dash plate, and have all 5 original wheels and tires, original hood numbers found on hood. Had to put 12 volt items on it to get it running, did valve work and fresh gaskets on motor, did minor work to tranny and transfercase. Have original springs also. One tiny rust area in pass floor, tool box excellent. I have quite a few extra parts as well.”

Thanks to Charles for sharing jeep pics from some movies. I don’t have time to figure out which pics belong to which movie, since Ann and I are going to enjoy an evening together.
“Empire tractors were only built for a few years after WWII.
The drivetrain of these tractors was the Willys Jeep 4×4 which were available at that time.
The engine, transmission, transfer case, rearend, radiator, steering column and wheel are all Willys.
The operator platform of the tractor is surplus navy ship decking.
This tractor does not have the original Willys engine, but instead has a flat head Jeep engine with a counterbalanced crankshaft. The electrical system has also been updated to 12v instead of the original 6v system.
The engine, transmission, and transfer case were all rebuilt a few years ago. The engine runs great and idles very smoothly.
The tractor can easily do 20mph on the road and if the rear tires were balanced it would go faster.
This tractor would be great for someone wanting to do one of the antique tractor drives that various tractor clubs offer.
There are less than 500 Empire tractors in the USA, known to the Empire Tractor Club.
(oh…. also included with the tractor for the buyer would be all the Empire Tractor Club newsletters that I have)”

It appears to have a replacement body. Looks solid.
“The front frame forks have been reinforced with square tubing to strengthen the front end for a tow bar and electric winch. The frame is clean: no rust. The body is an after market M-38 with CJ-3A windshield and a wide mouth military 10 gal. gas tank. The radiator is 4 core and coolant serves an under dash heater with a 2 speed blower. The thermostat is 180 degree. In hot weather, the temperature will run 180 to 190. In extremely hot weather it will get up to 210 degrees. Continue reading →
