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 may need a little work, but could be a good project. It includes the Meyer hardtop and a trailer.

“Grandma bought this Jeep brand new in 1966. Always has run great. Has not been started in several years. Been garaged for the last year. Comes with USMC trailer and couple sets of wheels and tires. Plan was to restore to original, but just never seem to get a good start, so time to turn over to someone else.”
I believe this is a Jiffy cab model, but I don’t remember being able to disassembled it quite so much. Maybe I’m just spacing that.

“Very Rare 1960 Jeep FC150 ( Foward control) Honestly, a bit of a sweet basket case. Small block Chevy (poss 327) in unknown condition, military pto winch, short bed, mostly complete, unfinished axle swap, not a roller..Not much rust, no title with bill of sale. (I bought several cars from an estate and can’t keep them all.) Super cool, hard to find and a solid project worth the fight. Maybe modify to newer Jeep chassis? Could be absolutely bitchin! Priced accordingly $2800. Always consider offers and trades.”
As I continue my journey to organize the jeep office, I stumped upon this May 1963 Four Wheeler article about Kent Frost. You can learn more about him here: http://www.ewillys.com/2020/11/11/kent-frost-a-man-of-canyonlands/ and here http://www.ewillys.com/tag/kent-frost/.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7500.
John shared this solid looking truck with a V8 for sale.
“1953 Jeep Willys Overland Pick Up. Runs and drives no issues. Check the info sheet for work completed.”
UPDATE: David spotted some 2A tags on this rig, suggesting the title may be problematic.
Bill shared this Hemmings auction. It will be interesting to see what this fetches on Hemmings.
https://www.hemmings.com/auction/1952-willys-m38a1-north-stonington-ct-318166
“This 1952 Willys Jeep M38A1 represents a military-spec example in highly presentable condition, with what the seller describes as a new canvas top and the Jeep’s original engine, which was reportedly built 275 miles ago. The Jeep is said to retain its correct 24-volt electrical system, with auxiliary batteries. Described as having been under current ownership for 15 years, the Jeep is reported to be “free of rust.””
Here’s another Bill pointed our direction. Again, it should be interesting to see how high this goes.

“This M151 is powered by the Hercules-sourced 141-cu.in. OHV inline-four. With a compression ratio of 7.5:1, the engine received its fuel mixture via a single carburetor and was rated by the manufacturer at 60 horsepower when new, with 119 lb-ft of torque. The engine in this M151 is reported to be original, with no stated rebuild history. The seller says the manual choke does not need to be used for starting if the engine is warm. An electric fuel pump was reportedly installed in 2018, the M151 reportedly having 24-volt electricals. The manual transmission reportedly “works great,” and the seller states “All-Wheel Drive works great, engaged with a lever switching from 2 to 4 wheel -drive.” The engine bay presents as stock and very clean.”
This article describes the use of the jeep in the mountain west. There are some interesting notes about salt lick placement requirements, too.
I can’t remember running across the ad. It’s an unusual one. The title is “That’s the Story from Willys-Overland Motors”, but really that is pretty much the end of the story of Willys-Overland Motors, as the company assets were shortly wound into Henry Kaiser’s company. This must have been produced shortly after the introduction of the CJ-3B. The cartoonish M-38A1 is pretty unusual, too.
