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 $10,500
(06/23/2012) Looks good based on the two pics.
“1943 Ford GPW recent restoration with rebuilt engine (mostly Ford except head); new tub, seats, canvas top, glass, tires, gas tank, starter, wiring harness.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
“Good body, all new brakes.Original equipment, 24 volts. Runs great. Titled. Free delivery within 100 miles of Plymouth, MA, otherwise buyer responsible for pick-up or shipping.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1200.
It appears this runs, but needs brakes.
“Here is a 1948 Willys Jeep with a 6.5 foot plow. No Doors, no windshield, no roof. This is a great yard vehicle. Needs a brake job since they are not working right now. This is a great piece of Americana!! Original flathead 4 cylinder, three speed stick, one seat. Recent clutch and starter done”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
This was used by a rural fire department.
“Up for auction is a very nice Willys M38A1 military Jeep. This is an excellent restoration prospect! I have had this one for a number of years and do not have the time to restore it, so I have put it on the market for an immediate sale. It is the second generation version without the hinged grill. It was used by a rural fire department, as you can see by the lettering. You can also see the remains of the original U.S. Army lettering, along with the hood number. There was no id plate with the other data plates, although all of the others are present. This is a true “barn find”, an although I have owned it for several years, it is still in its original condition that it was when I got it. It is unmolested and still has all of the 24 volt gear in place. The fire department did cut out the back panel, which can be easily found and replaced. It is so well done that it almost appears to be a M38A1C, but of course, does not have the correct windshield for that configuration. I am amazed at the solid floors, hat channels,etc. They are all in excellent condition. Take a close look at all of the pictures. This could be a candidate for a museum quality restoration! The two original front seat frames are present and in good condition. The original gas tank and its plumbing is there, but I have not attempted to use it. A very nice set of top bows comes with this Jeep. Nice original military wheels and Cooper military tires. The engine turns by hand, but again, I have not tried to start it. I would bet that it will start right up with a new set of batteries, fresh fuel supply.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6000.
It looks like this sat outside for a while, rusting.
“Posting a 1945 WWII Jeep project jeep. Tub is restore-able, gages are in good condition, everything sealed, transported last month from Texas. Email me at cashcrow2052 at gmail.com for questions, specific pictures, or a meeting on purchasing a WWII Willys jeep. $6000 Or best offer.”
It is dirty, but is it rusty?
“This is a restore gem right here. I have had for many years but don’t have the time, money or drive to restore it like it deserves. For a project it would make a great rig. Body and everything is in fair shape for what it is. You can reach me at email or two/0/eight/6/nine/9/seven/9/four/2.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6250
(11/01/2012) Not sure about the rear bumper, but everything else looks good.
“Runs good, drives good, looks good. 4-wheel drive, high/low range, 4 cyl f-head engine. 30k original miles. New shocks, tie rod ends, newish tires, 3.5 inch lift, converted to 12 volt, recent brake overhaul including all wheel cylinders, lines as well as shoes, rebuilt carb, new wiring, refurbished wooden flooring etc. All fluids recently changed, no rust and recent repaint, clean inside and out and underneath. Ready to go to a new home.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
This looks nice enough, but if you look at the pic under the driver’s side it has a piece of channel welded to a body mount. That seemed odd to me.
“Wow its very hard to call any Military truck a NUMBER ONE,but this stunning 1954 Willys M38A1 is pretty close, they never even left the factory like this! You could eat your dinner off of her and with a RUST FREE body and 11,366 miles from new she is very rare too! So in the spirit of a real auction she is for sale at NO RESERVE! But because quality always makes good money, she will not go cheap, but you will love showing her! Find another show worthy 1954 M38A1 that will actually get a new owner at the end of auction!!!! BID NOW! Its your only chance!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7500
This looks in good shape.
“This is a 95% restored 1953 M38-A1. It cranks, runs, and drives like a new one. The body is perfect. All it needs to be 100% is new canvas seat cushions, top, and top bows. Come and drive it and you’ll be hooked. For a nearly 60 year old vehicle, it is amazing. I am asking $7500.00 or interesting trade”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500
This might be worth a look.
“Outstanding project 99% complete only missing fuel tank. Motor was rebuilt at one time but it has sat for a few years now so will need work. email or call for more info.”
How about that great first picture? Love it!

Fred spotted this nice looking truck. This listing includes ALOT of good quality pics.
“This is a true TIME CAPSULE! Sold with the original title and registration from Oregon do not miss your chance to own a piece of history. This truck comes from the original family that owned it when purchase in 1955 in Oregon. Used originally as a forest service truck to pull out redwoods this machine is a torque monster. Having personally driven this truck I can say it is without a doubt one of the best running WIllys out there. Do not mess around with custom 350 conversions this original straight 6 Super Hurricane engine is up for anything.
Only carrying 90,000 miles the engine runs like new and without ANY hesitation. Fires right up everytime and will take you down the road with its 3 speed manual transmission at 55 all day long. The truck could literally be used as a museum piece, car show winner, or a daily driver. Use it to promote your business or store it in your Willys collection, this truck is AMAZING!
-Original 90,000 Mile SUPER HURRICANE Engine
-Fully functional 3 speed manual trans and 4 wheel lock out hubs
-100% Functional Gauge cluster and speedo (look almost new)
-Fully functional heater and thermostat
-New All terrain Tires
-Original Spare
-Tape player installed in glove box (not a cut up dash unit!)
-Original special order Kleenex Box form Willys still full with the ORIGINAL kleenex!!
This truck really is an amazing piece of history. Only thing on the truck that is NOT original is the interior which was updated in the 80’s as well as the tape player in dash. The truck is 100% rust free and has only sat in a climate controlled garage for the last 20 years keeping it in like new condition. Used 3 times a year to pull floats in parades the truck has been ran and kept in excellent condition making it one the cleanest and best running ORIGINAL Willys in existence.
Will be sold with original:
-Oregon Title
-Registration
-1955 Oregon Plate
-Full write up in Collector Truck Magazine”
