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 $1500.

“I am NOT a commercial sales guy, I just ran into a very large (for me) lot of parts, including an entire M38A1! I’m selling them to support the resto-Mod of my 1949 Jeepster.
There are over 150 Parts I’ve cataloged, most are for M38A1, a few M151, M37, Mule (mufflers) and MB parts. I’ve already sold a few of these parts to some members here. I am posting this list out to several pages and some facebook pages as well.
I have a google Doc made of the parts and the prices, the prices listed DO NOT include shipping. I also have corresponding photos of each item. If you’d like to contact me about a part, please PM me, or e mail me at “bob3bsellingstuff@gmail.com”, and give me the corresponding number of the part and I can send a photo and we can talk about the parts. Some of the prices I’ve come up with are negotiable, some are not…the prices are based on conversations I’ve had with people who know more about these parts than I do and some educated guessing.
I would prefer NOT to ship these parts overseas.”

It’s not listed as a specific model in the ad, but perhaps it is an M-606A2? The rear passenger side filler is something that wasn’t originally listed on the documentation.

Mike shared this CJ-5 .It’s ago a few unusual mods. At first I thought the hardtop was a Sears Deluxe (and the doors appear to be Sears), but from the inside it’s got cracks everywhere, suggesting it is fiberglass. Anyone have experience with these tops? Is it some type of interior insulation that is cracked?

(12/20/2017) The seller indicates this was column shift CJ-2A (#37254) that has been restored to “original condition”. Yet, it has a floor shifter. It’s certainly possible that this originally came with a floor shift. There are a few other non stock things done on this as well.
