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 $500.
Here’s a parts jeep.
“1952 willys original flathead 4cyl doesn’t run,still has navy tag on dashboard”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1250.
It appears there is some value here.
“1950 willys jeep cj 3A. Scout axles 4.88s. 33 12.5 sport king tires (almost new). Project, dont have time to finish.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.
(05/15/09) “Great Classic. Comes with gun racks, game carrier new tires and camo paint. I’ve had the Jeep for over 25 years. It has served me very well. Almost everything on it has been redone and it’s ready to roll. OPTIONAL – custom made crow’s nest tower blind – $1500. I also have a new (still in the box) 9000lb Warn winch with cradle and wiring – $600.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3000.
“1952 Willys Arctic Top Jeep. It has a good running Buick V6 from a conversion 15 years ago. It has a 3 speed manual T90 with Dana 20 t Casr. Dana 27 closed knuckle front axle and a 44 in the rear , both have 5.38 gears. Hudson steering conversion. It runs and drives good. Big 11″ drum brakes and A GREAT HEATER. Custom so it actually throws heat. SHE IS NOT PRETTY. made as a hunting rig so it is reliable and driveable. Top comes off in 15 minutes or so. OLD SCHOOL build all the way. Great rig. In the last year it has been driven to the Tricities and back. It is in Ellensburg now but I will drive it back tomorrow night. It is that good of a rig. Primitive and Jeepish. Trades: The only trades I will entertain would be an enclosed trailer 6 X 12 Minimum in size or a Honda CR500. Maybe a Supermoto if its got a plate. Thats it.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $950
It looks like 1 1/2 parts jeeps, but this may be a good price if the body isn’t too bad.
“Two Jeeps, one complete 49 CJ3a with clear tittle. Engine is moisture locked, but didnt run when it turned over. Drive train is fine, clutch, trans and tranfer case all functional,solid frame and body. The second unit has no body, but a complete running gear and motor. This motor has been been rebuilt with many new parts and a 12 volt system, but is also moisture locked, this frame is solid and has a complete PTO with shaft.”
UPDATE: Price updated to $4900. More pics below.
(11/02/09) I’m thinking this might have a replacement body. It looks good.
“It’s a nice solid Jeep. Great Buick V-6, 5:28 gears, 4spd with overdrive, nice roll bar, nice BFG tires. Customize or use as a daily driver. make me an offer or trades. 541 297 3668”

UPDATE: Price dropped to $1300
(03/30/2010) Based on these pics I’d say the body on this is less than ok.
“1952 jeep willys cj3a. Seems to have all the original parts. Ran when i parked it three years ago. Body is ok considering the age. must sell so make an offer. i don’t check my email so call 859 583 1369”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2800.
It needs a little work.
“1951 CJ3A Willys Jeep. The Good: Complete, mostly original, flat-four. Also includes full 6-point cage, new tires, new shocks, new gas tank and lines, and new brake lines. The Issues: It has been sitting for a while and was in the middle of a 12-volt conversion that was never finished (no generator or alternator currently) when I bought it, wiring needs attention, turns over and starts, has a couple rust-out spots under the rear tail lights, quater size hole under the drivers seat in the pan, and rust in the rigger body braces under the body near the frame (where the wood was located). No pink slip.
I bought it as a project and have not had the time to finish it. It had been sitting for a while prior to me buying it… I massaged the cylinders with some Marvel oil, added some fresh gas to the carb and it cranked over and it tried to run. Sputtered, puttered, but ran. Since then, I have replaced all the gas lines, cleaned the new tank (it had old gas in it), added two inline filters, new plugs, new wires, and there it sat. Thus, I know it’s not frozen and only needs minor tweaking to run.”
This must be sold. Someone may get a good price on this. I can’t tell if it runs or not.
“as is, we’re moving and its to be sold for asking price or b/o needs to be sold please call (no e-mails) Art (408) 648-3943 or Tony (408) 836-7360”

(03/21/2010) This is a nice looking build.

It’s unclear how much work this needs.

This looks like a project.
“I am interested in selling my 1950’s CJ3 Willys Jeep. It is fairly great shape for a 60 year old vehicle. Its been used for years as a farm truck here in AZ. It doesn’t run at the moment, bought it from my friend who said it needed the carburetor rebuilt and I haven’t got to that. motor spins freely (original 4 cyl) Has some rust in usual spots. the tool box under passenger seat is intact. Working tailgate. As far as i know it is all original. One rim is welded to hub so needs repair. This Jeep is in really great shape for its age and hard to find one not wasting away in a field. Wanted to make a hunting jeep/ toy out of it but no time.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6200
(10/27/09) It looks nice enough, though the windshield seems a little tilted back.

Will go anywhere: sand, dirt, mud. $6,200.00 obo. Will consider any reasonable offer. Don’t buy a rust bucket for $3,000-4,000 when you can own this rust free jeep with a V-8, ready to play!”

This looks like a very nice road and trail Jeep. It has a solid fiberglass front that tilts forward.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $700
(12/27/09) “I bought this flat fender as a project without a title during the summer. The weather is nice enough to work on it and it is more project than I want. It ran, but had a knock. I pulled the pan and found the #3 rod bearing spun. Crank looks ok. I pulled the body to make getting to the engine easy. Rust and cracks all over. I don’t mind engine work, but am not motivated for body work. Except for a key start, it is pretty much original equiped for 1949. 12V coil too. I had it running before I took it apart, email me for a Youtube link to hear and see it run. Make me an offer and make it your project. No title.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2850
“1952 Willy’s Jeep. Was used mainly for hunting. This Jeep has 2 high rise seats mounted on the back, they can be removed. Motor was rebuilt in1995,all new seals & fluids, new starter, tires in 2008. Asking $2850.00 considering I’ve found this model of Jeep priced more but will negotiate for the right price. This Jeep would be great for hunting, farm use or possible restoration. Please only serious inquiries.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5000
“1949 Willys CJ3A Jeep with a clear Texas title in hand. The body is in great condition with little rust. The toolbox is solid and not rusted through. This was to be a restoration but I don’t have the time to complete it and I’m wanting it to go to a good home to be completed. It is a runner and can be driven. It has a long list done to it already and parts waiting to be installed … All new parts were purchased through Walcks4wd.com and the motor was rebuilt on March 3rd 2010. It is a driver and is in good shape. The transmission is in good shape. The transfer case has some slop in one of the levers but works fine. It’s at the point of needing disassembly, cleaning, painting and reassembly. This is a great restoration project and requires very little in new parts to complete it. I am asking $5000 negotiable. I have much more than that in it already. This really is a good deal.”
UPDATE: **SOLD* Was $4500.
This looks nice and has a number of additional mods not listed, including the updated column, swing pedals, and more.
