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 .
Looks solid. Has a later model oil filter bracket.

Mike spotted this one. It appears to have a repro body with the M-38 indents and MB glovebox.
“1952 Jeep Willys CJ3A flatfender with a CJ2A style M38 body tub. Jeep has very little rot for the year and is about 80% complete. It will run and drive with a little work. 134 cubic inch “L head” flathead 4 cylinder with T90 3 speed transmission, Dana 18 twin stick transfer case. Brakes were rebuilt and has a small lift kit installed. It is currently on tube-type 7.50-16 bias ply traction plus tires on stock style steel wheels. Has 3A windshield and frame with 3A grille. Marker lights converted to dual filament bulbs for directional kit and I have a Stat-900 series column switch. Has been converted to 12 volt with GM Delco 10-SI alternator but it really should be re-wired with the correct style harness. Has aftermarket period correct rollbar and an aluminum hard top and doors that can be restored or just painted and left as-is. Jeep needs new body mount kit and rear bumper, and steering box to be rebuilt with new bearings and seals. Will need finish assembly. I have a spare 2A dashboard and cowl panel to use for patch pieces to put the dash back to original. Has Warn Dual-Matic lockout hub assemblies on the front axle. $2,000 takes it home. No title issued in NY state before 1973 but has a NY transferable registration from a previous owner. I never personally registered this vehicle. Excellent trail rig or beach buggy.”
This has a DJ-3A body.

Eric’s selling this trailer. He’s hoping it finds a good home.
“Classic military style 1/4 ton 1945 Bantam T3C Trailer, Serial # 1268
If you know what the above means then you know how rare they are.
Great starting point for a full restoration or use for the tub and parts if you already have one.
Great platform to build an expedition trailer.
The details:
-Older style Tube supports on the rear
-Original axle/leaf springs, landing leg, marker lamps and tailgate are gone.
-Replacement axle uses a 5×4.5 bolt pattern instead of the original 5×5.5”

“1952 Willys Jeep M-38
Rancho suspension
225 V-6 engine -60 psi oil pressure
Chrome Selectro hubs
Chrome mod wheels with decent tread on tires
The M-38 is the military Jeep and has a better frame, stronger Dana 44 rear diff. And no wood in the frame to make it rust. There is no rust through on this jeep and the hat channels are in great shape. Although someone must not have liked the shovel indents because they bonded them in!? There is a lot of Bondi on the Jeep but I don’t see any rust!
Needs seats, wiring, brakes ,dash
Engine runs with great oil pressure”

This Kelly Manufacturing “Safari” Hardtop postcard was for sale on eBay. I’ve never run across a brochure for this.
This photo was taking in 1951 and shows Bill Warren in front of his modified jeep. It looks like a simple convertible top is stowed on the rear of the jeep.

“Up for sale is a very nice 1946 Willys CJ2A Jeep. It has been taken down to the bare frame and rebuilt from the ground up. It runs and drives well. I believe the drive train to be the original. Since it ran so well, the motor wasn’t rebuilt but was mostly disassembled for cleaning, gaskets and paint. The transmission and transfer case were both disassembled and rebuilt. The rear end was partially disassembled, re gasketed, painted and reassembled. The body was completely disassembled, all signs of rust were repaired.”
