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: **SOLD** Was $100.
Good price. It would make a great “Allstate” Jeep project.
“Pulled this Allstate L161 out of a CJ2A Willy’s Jeep. Definitely not original to the CJ2A. My best guess is this from a Willy’s Jeep Station Wagon or Henry J from the early 1950s.
The casting on the top: ALLSTATE, 6L161
Block Casting: 741878-2
It has run in the past; just been a project car for years and decided to go with a newer engine.”
Updates will return Tuesday morning
Mario Maipid posted this illustration to one of Facebook’s groups. It was used as part of a patent or trademark filing in the State of Wisconsin.

Includes an M-100 trailer.
“1946 CJ2A COLUMN SHIFT WITH M100 TRAILER. Just took it on a 400 mile trip at the end of September and it did great. New brakes and wheel cylinders all the way around. New voltage regulator. Very clean old jeep. Trailer is a M100. It has been redone from top to bottom. Has pintle hitch hookup. Jeep will come with pintle hitch if you buy both. I just haven’t put it on the jeep yet. Clean title on the jeep in my name. No title for the trailer. For this kind of money, I’m sure someone will want more pictures if interested. Just let me know and I can provide more.”
It’s listed as a 1948, but is actually a 1951 M-38 (see description for more info). It lacks a speedometer.

“1951 Willys M38 Jeep
Willys serial # MC24291. Oregon DMV assigned # DRF84972, this is the VIN on the title, they probably couldn’t find the tag behind the seat.
Powered by a Chevy 327 that runs good and actually makes it quite scary fast to drive.
Very good power steering and 11” brakes, it stops good.
3 speed transmission with over drive, 2 speed transfer with locking hubs.
It shifts good and doesn’t pop out of gear.
All lights, turn signals and gauges are working, good oil pressure and the charging system works.
No speedometer (see photos).
Twin fuel tanks, full roll cage, tilt wheel and good tires.
Has one small rust spot underneath (see photos) and a front end alignment is due.
All around a good solid old military jeep that is fast and entertaining to drive.
Clear California title.
California residents will be subject to DMV fees and 7.25% sales tax.
Looks in good shape.

It’s a project.
“Its time to make some room for other projects, so my somewhat rare “Jeepster” has to go. Not many were made! These were only made for 3 years from 48′ to 50′ and are one of the rarer early Willy’s vehicles – don’t miss your chance to pick up a great example of this unique vehicle!

Body has all original paint and the interior has the seat frames and top bows. Car currently does not run, and needs a starter and fuel tank.

This Jeepster is pretty much complete with all trim, but needs new glass (see pics)
Current tires will hold air for transport.
Rear “continental” spare tire mount all there (see pics)
Have original radio (currently out of vehicle)
Stuff that requires some TLC:
Has a few small rust through areas in the drivers/passengers floor, one small area near drivers rocker (see pics).
Retractable top is missing one latch
Missing glove box lock and has a damaged dash gauge assembly
Should be trailered, can’t be driven on trailer or car hauler.”

Andy’s got this M-170 for sale. It’s listed as Buy-it-Now or Make Offer.
“For your consideration a very RARE USMC version of the M170 ambulance jeep. This particular jeep was a radio version of the M170 and it has different details on the interior …the seats , also has a very heavy duty electrical system and comes with a Ramsey model 50 winch power take off unit.
Unfortunately the very rare model 50 winch is now missing only the actual PTO unit is left mounted to the rear of the transmission.
Overall the body condition is very nice for the year, has minimal rust through in hat channels.
Frame springs and axles are excellent, brakes were recently replaced as has been a lot of the wiring still 24 V engine runs excellent has a rebuilt carburetor missing some waterproof pieces of the majority are still there I do have extra parts available
Here is your chance to own an extremely rare USMC radio jeep…. it is produced in 1963 which is much later than normal production run for these vehicles one of the last ones produced was in 1964 overall a great collectors item . Comes equipped with unique marine corps items like the rear bumper for lifting shackles other things. Thanks and good luck …sold as is….. clear title sorry, no overseas shipping on this vehicle….”
UPDATE: Sold for $19,500 on eBay.
Here’s a John Deere themed FC. Seller included a video.
Here is your chance to own a truly unique, rare, and beautifully restored 4-wheel drive pickup, of which only 1600 were built. This ‘John Deere’ colored Willy’s Jeep was totally restored starting with media blasting the body and frame, cutting out the rust and replacing it with new metal, period correct engine, interior, and wiring in the early 2000’s by an individual in York, PA. There is no rust or rot coming through anywhere. The approximate mileage since completion is about 1200. Current owner purchased the pickup in 2004 and has only driven it to local shows and parades.
Mechanically the Willy’s Jeep runs great; all the lights (headlights, turn signals, brake lights, etc) work like new. Speedometer and odometer function normally, but the horn, new fuel gauge, new temp gauge, and new heater motor were never wired. Owner indicates that they will work without an issue.
