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 .

“I just picked her up and some “stuff” came up, so I need to sell the Willys. Most importantly, it does start and purrs like a kitten. There really wouldn’t be a ton of work to make it roadworthy. If you have any questions, feel free to call or email.
Thanks and have a good day. 303-229-0727 I don’t have text.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4300
I’m thinking this is a CJ-3A with a replacement body, hence the solid tub.
“For sale 1950 Willys CJ3A, clean title, has some surface rust but is not rusted through anywhere (no cancer). I bought it as a CJ3A, but this might be a first generation M38, it has military seats, military bumpers, a glove compartment (only m38 had it, not the civilian version), a military hard top. The engine runs smooth, was rebuilt less than 3,000 miles ago by the last owner. It has the original L134 “Go-Devil” 4 cyl engine, original transmission and transfer. Runs good, all stock except for tires, wheels, and a couple of aftermarket gauges. Top speed of 45-50 mph. This is a great daily driver as it sits or you could make a great restoration project out of it. Selling because I have too many toys and have to downsize the fleet before my new son/daughter is born. $4300 OBO, not interested in trades.”
UPDATE: Still Available
(09/05/2011) The running gear is from a Toyota.

No pics provided. Sounds like it might be a good price.
“4WD, runs and drives. Unmodified, needs some brake work”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $500.
Between the top and the tires/rims there is value.
“This is a 1949-1952 Jeep Willys, it has the buick 231, with the t-90 manual transmission, 4×4. Brand new starter, turns over slow and does not run, and no title. 500 or best offer.”

This looks good. It has plenty of mods.
“1953 JEEP WILLYS 600 MILES ON MOTOR 777 MILES ON ODO
HAS AN AMC 360 SMALLBLOCK RUNS STRONG
LIFTED ROCK CRAWLER RIMS
THIS JEEP IS THE ONE YOU WANT SOMEONE ELSE HAS ALREADY PUT IN THE WRENCH TIME!!!
TO MANY EXTRAS TO LIST!”
The frame has some cracks, but the seller has a CJ-5 frame to replace it.
“Looking to sell my vintage willys jeep
Specs:
Clean clear LA title
225 buick v6- does run, but would most likely need the carb cleaned as it has not been cranked in a couple years, I believe the drivetrain was transplanted from a cj5 and it has power steering of some sort on it- has a holley 390cfm 4 barrrel with aluminum 4 barrel intake, also have carter 2 barrel and adapter plate for it
It has 31″ swampers (tires in pics are not what is on it now) on white spokes, full cage that I would personally change up some, body shell seems sold floors have been re-sheeted.
It is a project and I bought it for such and have a lot of stuff that will go with it. It needs the brake and fuel lines ran properly and you could actually drive it like it is. The frame has a couple cracks, as they are prone to, but I have a cj5 frame that I was going to swap it over to, or you could repair he cracks and leave it as it is. Comes with cj5 frame, 2 sets of spare axles, 2-3 spare transmissions and transfer cases, 12 gal alum fuel cell and yj poly tank (choose which one you want to install), new plastic race seats with covers and sliders, a box of misc extras and I am sure more that I cant think of.
I want $1600 and have quite a bit more than that in it. It really doesnt need any money put in it, just some time, would make a great winter project for this year and put it on the trails in the spring and have under $2000 in a driving rig. Comes with everything I have associated with it and do not want to sell parts. If no interest, i will leave it sitting under the shed until I get the time to play with it.”

UPDATE: Price dropped to $500.
(04/11/2011) Needs work.
“1953 Willys CJ3A. Buick V6 231, soft doors, old soft top not really to good.
It was in a garage until the last month. This is a project close to running just needs a little more.
I don’t have the money or the time to give to this project.
Reasonable trades considered.
(Toyota’s, small quads, guns, small concealed pistols, cattle, tandem trailer, CASH) If your are offering up a gun make sure it is worth what I am asking or have the rest in cash.
If you want a reply ask real questions that show me that you are not a scammer spammer. Or call NO TEXT

I have all the info,a bill of sale, The registered owners name, his #, his address, I just can’t get a hold of him he is out of town and I want to move on.

It runs and drives, but needs some work.
“Up for auction is my 1951 Willy Jeep CJ-3A. I got this jeep from my father-in-law about 10 years ago. I have driven it mainly on my land. It has been in a barn for at least 5 years. I got it started today and drove it to my house which is about 2 miles, ran fine and the brakes will stop it. The 4 wheel drive and transmission work fine. It is a flat head 4, I think it’s the same engine that it should have come with. The battery in it is very week, I had to charge it and after driving it, barley started again. The tires are old but hold air. Fuel tank is gone, using a plastic boat tank and electric fuel pump. This would make a good project. It will need to be put on a trailer. Everyone is welcomed and encouraged to come look in person before bidding. I have a clear SC title in my name.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5500.
This has a variety of mods.

Obviously this is not “ALL ORIGINAL”. It looks solid though. (Just a few examples of mods: handles, items on front fender, front hubs, paint, rollbar, towbar, metal rectangular tube across the front frame rails — probably the frame rails have been repaired –, position of rear tire).
