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 $5000.

“Sand Jeep I pc fiberglass body tube chassis, 454 big block, 2 spd powerglide which need to be rebuilt”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5000
(12/02/2019) Has some rust in the spare tire mount area. The driver’s side front rim has three holes drilled in it. I can’t remember seeing that on any other rims? The odd look of the photos appear to be a quick removal of background stuff from the photos, which, depending on what you have in your garage, is a good idea.
“Hello, I am selling a 1950 Willys Jeep CJ3-A. This Jeep was running and insured but has been stored inside and not driven the last few years. I have a title for it and it will also need tabs. It maybe needs a battery as well, It is still on 6 volt current, a 12 volt battery was hooked in for ease of starting. It has the Go-Devil 4 cylinder and manual transmission and 4 wheel drive. The body is better then many of the Jeeps of this era that I have seen, it needs TLC and is not perfect but solid. It is a good Jeep that should be driven. I also have a brand new 300.00 windshield and weather striping for the Jeep if interested. Contact me with any questions. 5,000 obo Will consider serious offers, Thank You”
UPDATE: Status Unknown. Was $7500. The link to the $7500 price has been removed, but this ad for it at the more expensive price is still there.
Has mods.

“**** NO TITLE**** 1950-53 (or so) CJ3a purchased over a decade ago for use on our farm. After searching for parts it was brought to my attention the title for this vehicle did not match the vehicle.

“1949 Willys CJ3a. Low low serial number (499). Bought to restore. Body was rough. Took the body off and dismantled it. Bought all new panels to put it back together. Blasted and painted the frame and engine block. All new brakes and lines, new exhaust. New fuel tank and lines. New shocks. Replaced junk tranny and transfer case with a good donor. New clutch. New u joints on drive shafts. Included is a whole spare tub, extra cowl, extra fenders, seat frames and a ton of miscellaneous parts. Spent much more in new parts from Walck’s and Kaiser Willys than what I’m asking for the whole thing. The old girl deserves to be finished.
The engine fires and turns freely. The transmission and transfer case shifts as it should. Hate to see it go, but I’m not going to get to it. Pics are from when I bought it and the work in progress. In dry storage now. I can take credit and debit with my Square reader. I’m not a dealer.”
