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 .

Seller will not break this up. It is a package sale.
“I have a 1946 CJ2a (#77xxx) for sale that was purchased as a parts jeep for its L134 engine. Unfortunately the block has a crack that probably isn’t repairable and I have moved on to another engine. The previous owner had disassembled the jeep and grown tired of the project. I have grouped this jeep along with a 69′ buick 225 and a spare Dana 41 rear axle as a package deal. (seller provides more details in the ad).”
Here are three T-84 trannies for sale. Pics of each on the ad.

one complete no bellhousing — should be rebuilt $100
one completely in parts – possibly an original knob $50 (tower housing has broken corner)

“I have a 1948 willys jeep. I bought this jeep last august to fix up and drive and as a hunting wagon. the jeep does run and their is no slack in the transmission, I have started it and drove around my pasture. The tires are in good shape, the slave cylinder is froze up and the fuel tanks probably need to be replaced. But overall it’s a very nice jeep. Wouldn’t take much to fix it up and make a very nice lil vechile.”
Contrary to the seller’s claim, it isn’t all stock. The front bumper has been extended. It almost looks like it has tool indents on the passenger side.

Paul forwarded these pics to consider. The moral is, always follow a half track!
“Last Saturday I visited the local military vehicle show and I saw an amazing sight. Among the various military trucks, Jeeps and one half track on display there was a Willys M 38 which had suffered a bit of body damage when the previously mentioned half track didn’t quite stop soon enough. I don’t know the reason for the meeting of these vehicles but the attached pictures show the results of contact between one very light and one very heavy military rig. The poor M 38 got the worst of this bump but the half track also suffered when it received a scratch in the paint on the front drum. Sad to see but I don’t believe anyone was hurt.”
Here’s another Newsweek Ad from 1943. I will have to fill in the issue information later, as I don’t have it with me. This was a two page ad in the center of the magazine.
