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: This looks pretty good.

“Well I’m sure no expert on Jeeps, but I aquired this 1960 FC-150 from a 82 year old farmer. This is what I call a true “Barn find” It has been stashed away in an old barn for over 20 years. It has all the typical rust in all the typical spots.
This was a running and driving jeep when he last parked it into storage. He had planned to put his portable welder in the back, but never got that far. He lost the title so I can only give you a bill of sale.
With the exception of a sunroof, and a missing radio, I would say that this FC-150 is almost 100% complete and original.
This would make a nifty restoration project, or perhaps A good a parts vehicle. I have no doubts that someone more mechanical than myself could have it running again in fairly short order?
This jeep is old and ugly but it has just around 63,000 original miles on it. The engine/transmission,differentials, etc. are all original. I have turned the engine over by hand and it’s free.
This jeep is over 52 years old, and I I am selling it as is.
I would much rather you plan for the worst, and hope for the best than be dissapointed in any way. And remember… no title.”
There appears to be value here. Phone number in Ad.

UPDATE: *SOLD** Was on eBay
This is a project.
“This is a very early and hard to find version of the WWII Jeep. The first few thousand were made using Willys MB frames with the GPW number stamped into the frame and this is one of those. The frame and data tag number is GPW 4370. The motor number is 9460. As you can see it needs repair to the tub but the tub is straight and I don’t see rust. It has a Ford transmission and transfer case, original Ford marked top bow brackets and bows. Original windshield with early brass latches. I will only run it on Ebay once on a 5 day sale and it will not go cheap but if you are looking for a rare one to do, this is it. Buyer must pickup, bill of sale and title included.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was listed at $2900.
“I have a 1951 M38 Wyllis Jeep M38 that is driveable. I have a clear and clean Tennessee title in hand all numbers are matching with vehicle plates and title except for the motor which is a later 50’s model overhead cam 4 cylinder it has aftermarket lock out hubs installed; all of this was done prior to me owning. Transmission, rearend’s, body and frame are all original. The body is solid and straight. This vehicle is in exceptional condition for it’s age.”
No title nor VIN tag.
“True Barn Find I believe is from the 60’s Complete vehicle
There was metal repair near the Passengers wheel well, at the time the Vin tag must have been removed and never put back on. I do not have it, I do not have a Title and I do not have a prior registration and no way to get one. So Bid accordingly.
The Jeep is complete, its a 4 cylinder F-head, cleaned out the gas tank and Carb and put in fresh gas. Cranked it a few times and it fired right up. It runs smooth, no noises and no smoke issues.
It yard drives, 4 wheel high and low work. Brakes will need work, has a 4 way plow set up but no blade. Hydralic pump on the motor.
Custom made welders body with factory counter weight over rear end.”
