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 .

“1949 jeep willys good condition 4 wheel drive works high and low. Good tires. Radio works and heater works also comes with a top and doors for winter time.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
Seems like there should be some value here.
“The Willys on left is a 1950 The Willys on right is 1959 is running and has a 4 Cylinder hurricane engine , has only the front drive shaft  and title in hand for the 1959. The 1950 has a great body doesn’t have an engine and has front and rear drive shaft and comes with bill of sale”
This is likely a 1948 CJ-2A, but not 100% sure.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/658446376253951
“PRICE IS OBO (O MEJOR OFERTA) New Carburetor, New Radiator, Distributor, Brake Boosters Runs and Drives”
Runs, no brakes or title.

“Willys jeep for sale🎉 (Do not have Title) Engine runs great and transmission is also great condition. Needs new water pump, battery, and will eventually need new tires. (Do not know mileage) Brakes do not work. This is a manual transmission.”
This looks to be a CJ-3A based on the drain gutter on the front of the cowl under the hood. No description provided.

This has an aluminum body and a Ford 4cyl engine.

“1951 CJ3A

Given it includes a couple engines, maybe there is some parts value here.

“3 Willys Jeeps for sale or trade. One is running and 2 are parts jeeps.”
This is only 2WD for some reason. Maybe it is related to the automatic transmission?
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/191472913918115
“2wd, auto transmission,rear 10gallon fuel tank, 1951 jeep seats, 4 cylinder, miles are unknown”
It’s powered with an f-head. It appears to need work.

“Very rare! Runs and drives. Great project for someone with more time than I have. Brand new battery, brakes need attention, does come out of high and low while driving, (I use wire to keep it in gear while driving). First with cash in hand takes it away! $6000 or best offer, no low ballers, serious buyers only.”
Sounds like a parts jeep.

“1952 Willeys Jeep Project Vehicle Has alot of parts, don’t know what’s missing. Bring trailer to haul it. Does not run $5000 obo It says 50000 miles, no clue if thats true or not. No title.”
Sounds like seller would prefer to trade. It appears to be 2WD. I see no reason to think this was a DJ-3A at some point, but I’ll add it to that category anyway.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/840465570802720
“Let’s trade what do you have this Jeep is very very very clean in new shape and done right also has an all new interior powered by a Isuzu fuel injected 4cyl motor runs and drives plz send pics and info with your offer thanks”
Looks to be a 3A. Given the plow, there could be some parts value here.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/975094550417812
“OLD 1940s-60s JEEP is known to be around 40-50s Era, if newer would be called a Jeep Wrangler.”
Listed as a CJ-3A, this looks more like an M-38.

UPDATE: Price dropped to $8000
(11/01/2022) This has an early 2A grille, so maybe not a late model 2A or a 3A with a 2A grille? It does have updates.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3900.
(05/23/2023) Listed as a 1947, It’s a 1950 CJ-3A.
“1947 jeep CJ3A. I was told it ran when I bought it but I have haven’t spent the time to get it running. It’s rare to have a Jeep this old with the original paint, etc… What attracted me to this Jeep was the original paint and patina. I had lofty aspirations of restoring it, but it has just sat in my shop for years. It was used in the back country for years as a hunting rig by the original owner and I was told it has packed out a lot of elk. I do have a roll bar for it, work manuals, and a few extra parts. This would make a really good project for someone who loves Jeeps. And it would be an absolute blast to drive around town, or take it into the back country. It is an original Darby, Montana Jeep. And was used extensively off road in the back country for elk hunting expeditions by two friends. $3900 obo. “
UPDATE: Still Available.
