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 .
Rare doesn’t adequately describe this unusual find. This sure looks like a MT Tug rear based on what I can see in Mark Askew’s Rare WW2 Jeep Book. I’m not sure what category to put this in, other than unusual!
“For sale 1943 Willys Truck 3/4 Ton 6×6 chassis Model MT-TUG. Only 15 of these vehicles were built for the US Army in 1943. I have the rear half of one of these vehicles which has the tandem rear drive axles, frame, suspension, front axles and a modified transfer case.”
This has an unusual rig on the back. Lotso rust here.
“Dont know many details about it. Its rusty, but ran back in the spring of this year. Has original 4 cy. 3 spd running gear with stock axles. Has lots of rust. Would most likely run again if you rebuilt the carburetor and filed down the points and put a battery in it. Has Super Swamper Bogger Tires-30 x 12.50 x 15 with lots of tread left. Tires are too wide on the rims and you cannot cut the Jeep very far either way. $350.00 cash gets it all.”
“1960 Willys Jeep. with GM V-6 Runs and drives. The steering could use a little tweeking. either, rework the drag link, or a dropped pitman arm, but it’s drives good enough for the woods. Has had it’s share of patching over the 50 years. Needs a right front wheel cylinder, and a wind shield. Comes with clear Florida title.”
This CJ-2A looks good. The seller reports this has a knock; it might be worth checking the harmonic balancer to see if that’s causing the problem.
“1946 Willys Jeep CJ2A – Clear Title (In my name)
Body in good shape. Recently tub was removed and chassis completely cleaned of all grease and grime. Chassis primed with a Por15 rust pervention paint. Repaired all rust on Tub. Floor pans have been replaced and repaired. Tub has been primed and painted in a Champagne Metallic color. Many new parts: new muffler, gastank, brake lines, carburator and fuel pump rebuilt, all original running gear intact and working. Jeep runs and drives. Transfer case and transmisson works in high range and low range. Only Bad news it that motor has a knock.”
Here’s a M-38 in pieces. It is listed as a 1953, but it’s probably a 1952.
“1953 M38 Willys Jeep, torn down, ready to restore. I have all the parts, flat head 4 cylinder needs rebuilt, 2 manual transmissions, 2 hoods, body in rough shape. $500.00 or best offer.”

(07/13/2010) Samuel Clemens (aka Mark Twain) once said that the coldest winter he ever experienced was a summer in San Francisco. Well, I lived in Aptos (just south of Santa Cruz, Cali) for several years and I’d argue it’s summers were every bit as cold or colder than SF when that damn fog rolled in, which seemed to be every evening! Fortunately, I only had to drive to the next town (1 mile away) and the fog would disappear …
Anyway, here’s a nice looking CJ-2A that lived somewhere close to where I was (aptos is a pretty tiny town).
“1947 Willy’s jeep original everything, under 8k miles been garaged most of it’s life and really wants to go 4 wheeling. no rust, no dents engine still looks shiny and new. If you have wanted a Willy’s this is your chance to start with the original right down to the military style tires! everything works great, runs great just needs a home with less vehicles so it can be driven. Paid 8k for this awesome truck back a few years ago it has been driven twice since then. I just don’t have the time and too many cars. So come give this little red jeep a good home I would like to get 6000. but will consider all offers. I can hear her crying in the garage wanting to go out to the wide open trails, someone come help her out.”
