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 .
This M-38 likely has an f-head.

“1952 Willys M38 with aluminum “Arctic” doors and top. Willys Straight 4 (L134) with a 3 speed manual(T90)?, four wheel drive with low.
Gas heater that pulls from the main tank, was able to get it working for a while but currently not functioning.
Swapped to a 12v electrical system, lights, wipers, horn all work. Numerous new parts through out.
25k miles currently, not sure if it’s rolled over or not. It’s spent all but the last 4 years of its life in Alaska and has been a ton of fun to work on/drive. Family is growing and don’t have the time to take it any further, Kaiserwillys.com has everything you could ever need to restore her, or keep her as is for a ranch jeep.
I’m sure I’m forgetting plenty of info, call or text with questions or offers. Asking 8,000 OBO”

“This Jeep does not have a title. It will be sold with a bill of sale only. Don’t read any further if you can’t deal with buying it on a bill of sale only. Getting a title is possible through a title company or through the DMV in your state once you purchase it depending on the laws in your state. A title is not required to register this in GA.
This is a running and driving 1952 M38. It was pretty much unmolested when I rescued it from a farm in North Carolina. I replaced all the missing parts and corrected some of the civilianized stuff.
It has original body tub and all sheet metal and original drive train. Engine runs strong but smokes a little. New Solex carburetor, wiring, lights, brakes, battery, alternator, gauges (not all working) and electric wiring. Misc. body hardware new and new gas tank. Original seat frames sand blasted and painted with new canvas. Older original canvas top. New windshield. All fluids checked and replaced. New brakes all four wheels. Picture on trailer is when I got it a while back. . Other pictures are current.”
Runs and drives, but looks like the gauge panel is hanging loose.
