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 .
It’s a project. Unclear if it runs.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3000
(04/19/2013) The seller has listed this as a 1946 CJ-2A. It looks like the frame is 2A and the CJ-3B body is a reproduction body.
“Back on the market for $3000.00 firm”
UPDATE: Still Available
“1953 WILLYS Cj3B – For sale is a 1953 Cj3B (high hood) Jeep. It is in good running condition. Is in need of some body work and restoration. The Jeep does have some rust in the floor pans but not bad enough to fix. It would make an excellent restoration project. You can just drive it as is if you want. It is okay for that to. Comes with a new Best Top. The jeep has military tires and wheels and a F Head 4 cylinder engine. There is some evidence it could have been a military Jeep used by the Navy. I don’t have photos available. You are welcome to come and look at it. $4,300 FIRM PRICE. Call 239-994-1984. No emails or text messages. I will only answer phone inquiry.”

No pics provided.
“Parting out a 53′ CJ3B. Jeep is mostly all original (including the original head lights) and relatively complete but the original F-Head engine has a bad rod and the body is toast. Oddly enough, the tail gate is reasonably nice without any extra holes in it or a major bow in the middle. It has a clean WI title with body tag… serial #453-GB2 15280. Optional equipment on the jeep is a PTO controller and a Konig full hard top. The hard top has the doors and is in great shape with exception to the rear door. It also has 15″ Kelsey Hays wheels.
Prices will be very reasonable and I will ship to anywhere via UPS ground, or UPS motor freight for heavy parts. Call Joe at 608-225-7074”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
It comes with a cool scraper! But, needs body work.

“Willys CJ3B High hood Jeep. This jeep has some trail rash and rust, but it is still pretty solid. The engine runs great, the four wheel drive works great, and the breaks work (brand new Master Cyl.) It would make a perfect trail jeep or a good solid place to start a resteration. I have the title in hand. First come, first serve! It will sell fast at $2,500 OBO Trailer not included or for sale.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay
(12/26/2012) The seller lists this a s a 1946, so it could be a collection of parts.
“This is a 1956 Willys CJ3B. I have just installed a new carb and fuel pump. It does run and idle smoothly, but the plug wires, cap, etc need to be addressed.
Drivetrain: The drivetrain is complete and the transmission, transfer case, and axles are operational. The clutch does need adjustment.
Body: The body has some rust but would be a great project to repair while you use it. Almost all of the sheetmetal that needs repair is flat sheet, so only basic skills would be necessary to repair. I have two different hard tops and one set of doors. I am unsure of the manufacturer.
Brakes: The master cylinder has water in it, so the brakes will need to be gone through
Suspension: The front springs are sagging.
If you want this shipped you will need to arrange your own carrier. I have a loading dock available if needed and the Willys can be driven onto a trailer. There are no titles for vehicles this old in Alabama. It will come with a bill of sale only. NO TITLE! The Bronco buckets are not included and the top of the fuel tank needs repair.”
No pics of the CJ-3B. There could be other jeeps. The seller has other vehicles for sale, too.
“Selling for my boss- 1961 Jeep FC-170. Very rare vehicle. This was origianlly used as a runway vehicle at a local airport. It needs love, but is 99% complete.

No title, but it runs.
“I am selling a 1954 willys jeep that I currently use on my deer camp. This is a great all terrain vehicle and runs well. Recently I have noticed there is a leak in the transfer case so that does have to be fixed on the jeep. I am asking 1400 OBO. I only have a bill of sale not the title. It will run if you want to put it on a trailer. Only thing it needs is the transfer case needs to be resealed. I will meet in either Graham or Jacksboro to deliver the jeep. Please call if you have any questions about the jeep.”
This is a collection of different parts and projects.
