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.
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 .
Runs. Based on the speedometer, I’d guess this is a 1957.
“Here is a neat old 1950 willys jeep that runs fine. 2-WHEEL DRIVE. No rust. Check the pictures. $4,500. FIRM.”

Spare tire looks like 5 stud, can’t see others. Floor shift tranny and front coil spring helpers. Looks like snaps along the W/S so might have been a convt. We need to get the S/N for our DJ3A Production / Survivor List. Nice appearing DJ3A for a reasonable price, but should get a careful look.
Windshield is from a M38 note brackets for rifle holder and bolted vent .
Glenn,
I agree with Terry that this probably is an ex-M-38 windshield, but it is curious that it has what appear to be twist connecters along the top. It also seems to lack the side connectors for a convertible top, so maybe someone installed a CJ-2A top on this at one time (which also used the same twist connectors). Also, given it has the tailgate, I’m guessing it wasn’t a convertible.
Do you know when Willys Motors changed out the heater in the DJs? Because, that’s a later heater.
Did you notice the coil springs in front between the frame and the axle? I guess it was having some sagging issues.
