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 .
This appears to have four doors, but I can’ tell how well extended this is.

(originally posted May 17, 2023): This extended M-38A1 includes some early Husky hubs. Thanks to Tom for spotting it. It does not run at the moment.
“Fire Department Jeep/Military Jeep. I have a 1953M 38 A1 military jeep that was later used by the forestry service in Oklahoma. It has been heavily modified and stretched. I bought a jeep off a 5000 acre ranch in Oklahoma. It had been stored in a barn for a long time the jeep is in excellent shape, and well taken care of The engine is seized from sitting. I do have a spare engine that is in good condition. I pulled it out of a m38A1. I did hear it run before being pulled.  I do have a clear title for the jeep and data plates Yes !!!!!! it’s a m38a1 the slave cylinder receptacle and battery box  have been patched with metal and covered up. If you look at the pictures, you can still see the sump from the military gas tank under the tub and the glove box on the driver side. It still has all the military markings under the hood and the frame does have the machine gun mount. It is not a M170 ambulance.!!!!  however, it does have some really interesting toolboxes in the rear. ”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $2000.
(11/28/2023) It’s a project. The seller doesn’t mention it, but this has some kind of extension on the back. Only one pic shows it.

“1950 Willie’s jeep. Set on a 2000 f350 frame with the 7.3 diesel motor and 6 speed manual transmission. Runs.”
This one looks like a beloved jeep. This is listed as a 1946, but it’s a modified MB with a custom top and suicide doors.

“Anyone have some land and trails to run on and hunt. 1946 Willy’s Jeep. Runs good. It needs some brake work. The wheel/ brake cylinders are sticky. It does have rust and some holes in places but the vehicle is 77 years old. lol, It’s dependable. It is what you will make of it. We love this old Jeep and had a lot of fun in it but just don’t have the storage anymore. The transmission is a three-speed with twin sticks for four-wheel drive, two-wheel drive, high and low range.. We have a separate engine block and parts on a crate for another motor that was given to us by a friend years ago but we never used it or had a need for it. Make an offer. 5000 obo. Will sell the Jeep and engine together or separately.”
Andy shared this find, which was previously listed in 2019. It’s an M-38A1 with an extended rear. We’ve seen a few of these over the years, but I don’t have much history about them. The half top looks like a sears branded one.

“This is not a CJ6! This is extend behind the rear wheel like a scrambler. It is a super rare military Jeep that even most military Jeep enthusiasts know nothing about. I put the cj5 half cab on it but it can be easily removed. The engine ran but hasn’t for years now. The floorboards were very rusted and have been cut out to be replaced. I have a military tub with great flooring to go with it that needs to be welded in. This would be a great project that would be well worth the effort because of the rarity of this Jeep. Call me at 54zero 66four39two 3 and I can give you more info about it. Last picture is of another one like it”
