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 .
UPDATE: Price now $6995. Was no price.

It’s a project.
“Selling a 1951 Willys M38 Jeep. This is a cool project that I no longer have time or resources to finish. I have had Jeep for 13 years and have done alot of work to this point. Jeep is M38 frame, body, drive train with a Dana 41 rear axle. The front grill is from a CJ3A. Jeep has a 4 cylinder Chevy engine out of a mid 60’s car.Jeep has power steering as well. Jeep ran, drove it around the block and then started taking Jeep apart, etc., Jeep has custom 1 1/2 body lift, heavy duty shackles, and is set up for dual shocks with a very rare, vintage heavy duty Rancho dual shock lower mounts. This is a project and needs to be wired, needs a radiator, seats mounted, steering colum built. Jeep has upgraded 11″ brakes. I was building this Jeep to look Military on top and hot rod below.Body is fair and has some rust on drivers side front floor.Any ways, thanks for looking and please feel free to ask questions.”
It’s a project.

UPDATE: Still Available.
(08/22/2016) This is an UNRESTORED wagon. It has a few very minor blemishes, but still looks amazing.
“This is a very well preserved and solid unrestored vehicle that appears to have spent most of it’s life in the South. It has new springs, shocks and wiring making it a solid feeling and comfortable driver. The stock 4 cylinder engine is quiet and smooth running. There are chips and scratches in the paint, showing natural patina for it’s age. Not perfect but too nice to restore. Right now there is a loose vacuum connection causing the wipers to not work and it wants to wander indicating it does not have the correct toe-in setting. Also the passenger window is cracked. Three things I haven’t got to. These were bad rusters but except for a couple of minor issue all the usual problem areas are in unusually excellent shape. Parts, if needed, are readily available from vendors and on E-Bay. It’s a fun, simple vehicle to tinker with.
I’ve looked for this vehicle for over 30 years just because I liked how it looked. Turned out it’s a much more solid and better driver than expected. Problem is I’m also another 30 years older, all ready have too many cars and should be down sizing. There are two cars ahead of this one I’m working on so it will be a while before I get to it if I ever do.
So, reluctantly, I’m putting it on the market for a fair price for what it is and for what I have into it. If you have ever been interested in these early 2 wheel drive wagons this may be the last one you will see in this shape and price range for the next 30 years.”
http://boston.craigslist.org/nos/cto/5921194336.html
Looks to be a mix of parts. Has full floating rear hubs.
http://tucson.craigslist.org/cto/5920645686.html
“I don’t know much about these Jeeps. I recently acquired this Military vintage Jeep from the previous owner who obviously put a lot of effort in restoring this vehicle both mechanically and body. A few after market refinements were put in place including: electric fuel pump, alternator, turn signals, back-up lights, gauges, exhaust. Looks like the entire drive train has been gone through. It starts and drives great, 4WD works, brakes well, solid steering, good clutch etc. Looks to have a full floating rear axle, front locking hubs, wheels and tires in great shape.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6750.
Seems to be missing the data plates.

“Well not a complete GPW. What I have is frame with axles, springs,steering and wheels. Also included is windshield assembly, and front fenders. The frame serial number is 19095. The frame is solid. It has the original F script trans cross member. Half of the machine gun mount has been cut off, has 4″ channel for a front bumper and the front u-shaped cross member has had the front of it removed and replaced with angle iron. You can see in the pictures. Axles are Willys MB and turn fine. The left rear axle shaft is an early scalloped type. Has steering gear box and steering wheel. Brake and clutch pedals and master. T84 F script case. Bell housing, shift tower and working 18 transfer case. Fenders are in decent shape. Windshield has good glass but windshield frame retainer(hinge part of tilt out window) is rusted and will need to be replaced. Wheels are 15″ with dry rot tires that hold air. I do not have any paper work on this but will include a bill of sale. MUST TAKE IT ALL.”

There are a variety of events already scheduled for 2017. These are in order of occurrence:
Oh, and one more …. In Mid July a small group of intrepid, brave, dedicated, and somewhat nutty jeepers will begin an epic trip to Alaska. Yours truly will be driving Rusty and reporting on our daily adventures. Expect a formal announcement in the next week or so.
