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 $2200.
This runs and drives.
“This is a 1962 Willys Jeep with the original in-line six cylinder engine, manual trans, and 4WD. it runs and drives great. I also have every receipt for everything that has been done to the truck since 1980. My plans were to cut it down and make a street rod out of the body, but I just can’t bring myself to cutting it up. Would make an excellent farm truck, hunting truck, or project for restoration. Asking $2,200 OBO”
UPDATE: **SOLD** No price listed.
The seller also shows pictures of a matching truck that might be for sale.
“GOT A 1958 WILLYS WAGON FROM OUT WEST HAS ORIGINAL 6 -226 MOTOR WITH WARN OR DRIVE, TOTALLY UNMOLESTED, RUNS AND STOPS.”
This hasn’t been started in a while, but looks like it is a good use-as-is or restoration project.
“1952 Willys M38 Jeep.
I bought this as a future project over 12 years ago and while the future is here, I have not started the project.
I bought the jeep from Montana and since I have had it it has always been stored indoors. Due to the hard top, it is in great condition as far as rust goes.
I have started and driven the jeep so know the mechanical work but have not started it in probably 2 years.
GOOD
Clear MN title (I am from MN originally)
Remarkably rust free for the age
Mechanically sound
Not so good
Much of the M38 specific equipment is missing
There are some dents and dings from 60 years of use
Due to the age and probably lack of use, it tends to mark it’s territory.
Don’t know if this is good, not so good or just interesting but looks like this was an arctic jeep. I can’t say exactly what that entails but there is some additional heating components inside that are “interesting” I think it is a somewhat unusual military modification for the cold. Explains the hard top as well.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6000
The data plates and tool indents suggest the body (and more) might be VEC.

The seller calls this Bone Stock in the title of the ad. It’s not ‘bone stock’, but it might be worth a look.

“Refurbished 1955 CJ3B model 573. New seats and fuel tank. I got the title and original owners manual from Willys. Must sell”
Mark just listed this at jeeptruck.com. I’m guessing this is in Washington based on the phone number.

Another “if built for a movie, then built for real, people will come” story … Mystic Pizza.
On Wednesday we drove from Darien, Connecticut, to Warwick, Rhode Island.
Wednesday’s drive from Darien to Warwick.
Wednesday morning we left my cousin-by-marriage George’s place. It was a beautiful day for a drive along the coast.
We traveled east along the Connecticut shoreline until we stumbled on the town of Mystic. Being young adults of the 1980s, we immediately recognized that it was the town used during the filming of Mystic Pizza, a movie which greatly helped Julia Roberts’ career.
Our first stop was at the Mystic Seaport.
