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 .
UPDATE:**Status Unknown** Was $500. Note the hood looks like a teardrop Bobcat style.
Except for the dash, the body looks good. This is the third Parkette body I’ve seen in Georgia.
“Its 1946 frame with a 1964 fiber glass body on it. It has been painted with truck bed liner I have a tranny and transfer case that is good. The body’s in good shape its has a few places where the fiberglass has spider webbing. It has a few parts that come with it. I got in on trade just putting it on here to see what else is out there trades are welcome.”

“1951 Willys M-38. Runs, drives. Holds antifreeze, 40# oil pressure. Has no brakes.
Body is very repairable, Exterior and floors have some rust through. NOT terminal by any means!
I’m not sure the motor is original military, but it is an L-134. There is no S.N. on the front of the motor.
Mileage is unkown, gauges are broken
I think the hood and grill are civilian. I have an M38 grill that will go with the Jeep.
The top is a military aluminum ” Arctic Top”.
Frame and running gear are military.
Clean Pennsylvania title in my name.
Jeep must be picked up or you arrange shipping.”
I created a post with a list of wiring schematics, but it was deleted somehow. This page provides a temporarily replacement. I’m sure I had links to where I found these, but I will have to relocate them.
The Last Chancer, a wooden train built on a jeep platform, is documented at the Helena History Museum. You can view additional pictures at the Museum page. A Last Chance Train still exists, but has been upgraded.
In this early picture taken in 1954 you can see what appears to be a CJ-3B peering out from it’s enclosure.
I’ve never heard of this book. Jack Townend wrote a variety of children’s stories.
“FOR SALE IS A VERY RARE HOMEFRONT CHILDS BOOK FROM THE WW2 ERA.
IT IS ENTITLED; ‘JENNY THE JEEP’ BY JACK TOWNEND PUBLISHED BY FABER & FABER, LONDON.
THE BOOK HAS THICK CARD COVERS WHICH ARE VERY COLOURFUL.
THERE ARE BLACK AND WHITE AND COLOURED ILLUSTRATIONS INSIDE WHICH ARE REALY BEAUTIFUL AND VERY EVOCATIVE OF THE TIME. THE BOOK MEASURES APPROX JUST UNDER 8 3/3 INS WIDE BY APPROX JUST OVER 5 INS TALL.
THE STORY CENTRES AROUND A JEEP CALLED JENNY WHO WAS MADE IN THE COLOUR PINK INSTEAD OF GREEN AND ALL THE OTHER JEEPS DIDN’T LIKE HER! THEN ONE DAY ALL THE JEEPS SET OF FOR ITALY AND ALL THE GREEN JEEPS TRIED TO STOP JENNY FROM GETTING ON THE SHIP BUT SHE MADE IT. JENNY MANAGES TO PULL A TREE TRUNK OUT OF THE WAY FOR THE SOLDIERS AND IS HAILED AS THE ‘QUEEN OF THE JEEPS’ AND IS ALLOWED TO GO IN FIRST POSITION! AFTER THE WAR THE JEEPS ARE TO BE SOLD AND JENNY IS CHOSEN BY AN ITALIAN MAN TO BE AN ICE CREAM CART, WHICH SHE IS VERY HAPPY ABOUT!
THIS IS A LOVELY STORY AND WOULD CERTAINLY HAVE ENTERTAINED CHILDREN DURING THE DARK DAYS OF WW2.”
“These 47 Sedan Deliverys are hard to find, especially in this condition. This vehicle is an older hot rod that has a 1964 Chevrolet 327 c.i. 4bbl. with a Turbo 350 transmission and B&M shifter. This power feeds a 57 Chevrolet 3:56 positraction rear end. This panel has power steering and power disk brakes on front from a 72-76 Camero. Has Steward Warner gauges and tach, updated upholstery and good tires. Tires are 14” front and 15″rear with beauty rims and baby moon caps. It still has the planar front suspension wih the transverse leaf spring and needs new shocks, which are redily available. This is an older hot rod that has many updates incorporated into the running of this vehicle. The paint shows a little wear and it needs a new passengers side windshield and door window as seen in the pictures. The side windows have been updated to one piece with the removal of the stationary vent windows. This vehicle is licensed until May of 2013, but is currently on suspension because it is not insured, but it is comletely road worthy. I recently installed new upper A frame bushing and have lower bushings but they are not installed. Drive it while you refresh the cosmetics and enjoy the “hot summer nights”. Asking $7800 but open to offers. No trades and I have plenty of projects. Call Hap at (559) 960-6771. I will not respond to text so don’t waste your time, call if your really interested.”
