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 listed lat $2500.
“This is a last edition 1953 CJ3A Jeep. A good driver condition, not show quality, a twenty footer. Body has been off frame, repaired by welding in non original panels, and painted low quality. All stock drive train, still 6 volt, runs well, goes well. Its been inside storage about 4 years so probably needs some attention from sitting. A real fun Jeep for small price.”

“I am 63 yrs old and have had this 1951 Willys Jeep for 40 yrs or so. It no longer runs as we pulled some parts off of it to be replaced. I became disabled and never got to replace anything and this jeep has been sitting for over 5 yrs now. Probably closer to 7 or 8. Anyway, the motor was very sound when we parked it and the transmission and four wheel drive was all in good order. The brakes needed to be replaced as did the gas tank. This never happened and even though I would like to put it all back together again, it’s probably not going to happen now. I understand I should probably be able to command this type of money for it even if just used for parts. I am really in need of cash right now and may take less. Maybe. Please email back if interested. This would make a good project for someone. We did cover it with tarp and camper shell to spare it from the elements.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $23000.

I have a good solid 1950 Willys Jeep CJ-3A for sale. Starts, runs pretty good. Motor is solid (does smoke a little from time to time). As you can see above it has a new fuel system. Will need a new battery. Brakes currently do not work but all that is needed is the new master cylinder installed that I will included with the sale. Transmission does grind and moan, needs rebuilding and new seals (leaks) but the clutch is flawless. Transfer case is solid. I have went thru both front and rear axles and they look good. Body does have some rust thru issues but its solid considering the age. Lights are currently not wired but I am including a new light switch and it appears to have good lamps. Comes with both driver and passenger seat frames. I’m asking $1450 for the Jeep. I have over $600 in parts currently installed or will come with the Jeep for you to continue on with the project. Would make a great hunting jeep or a solid restore project for someone. ”

Lots of upgrades on this rockcrawler.
“Back up for sale. I have a 1953 Willys CJ3A built for rockcrawling. I have built this for the last 7 yrs and now I need one for the family. It has way to many upgrades to list. A few of the basics are: its a Willys that has a Buick V6 225, TH350 trans, Dana20 w/ Teralow gears, Dana30 Front and Dana 44 rear axles both w/ ARB air locker 4:88 gears and chrome Moly shafts (The rear is full float/ the front has bigger U joints), Custom made MRW extreme 40 count real beadlocks w/ 37″ (almost new) radial iroks. Custom removeable cage, 4 linked rear suspension w/ Fox Air Shocks …….. I have built this for many years and I know it inside and out. It runs excellent even at 8000 ft elevation. I just went thru the Jeep and replaced the electric fuel pump and fixed the drivers caliper and bracket I broke last year. This is 100% ready for the trail this year. I have ran many trails such as the Rubicon Trail countless times and Fordyce Jeep Trail and this jeep performs well!!!!! I have put over $13,000 into this jeep in the last 7 years. I have almost every reciept for this build. I can remove the PowerTank, puematic system and winch for 1,000 off the price. I could still use those. It’s not street leagal as of now but eaisly could be with the addition of a few items. (I towed it to the trails) still has registration tags not a green tagged vehicle. For more info or many more pics just email. NO LOW BALLERS I dont need to sell this fast. $6500.00obo Thanks for looking.”
