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 .
This looks rough.

This needs the clutch replaced. The seller mentions it has an ‘aluminum’ buick V-6; however, I suspect the seller has confused that with the aluminum V-8. The engine is most likely cast iron if it is a V-6. This may be a good price.
“1953 jeep willys, army green with rebuilt Buick v6 aluminum engine, only 38,000 miles. New muncie 4 speed transmission with high low overdrive. 4×4. Canvas top with bucket seats and old school cb radio. This things awesome, its lifted, it has a working winch on the front bumper, like new tires. Only issue is it needs the clutch replaced. If you’re good with cars the price I’m asking is a steal. Parts are inexpensive, all gm, and easy to come by. If you have it done professionally however you’re looking at about $1200, I have the quote on hand. All told you’d be spending around $4200 if you go that route, and $3800 tops if you can do it yourself. I’m in the military and I just don’t have the time or resources to get this fixed. It’s worth $5500 with everything working right, so I could easily ask for $4000, but Im dropping it to $3000 just for the inconvenience of it. Please call or text if interested, I’m horrible about checking email. Thanks for your time. My name’s Jared by the way. (317) 371-3709”

The driver side fender corners look a little sharp. I’m wondering if this has been modified. Otherwise, this Navy CJ-3B looks good for the price.

ALSO COMES WITH A VERY NICE BLACK SOFT TOP AND DOORS. THIS JEEP RUNS EXCELLENT AND IS A BLAST TO DRIVE!! IT IS A VERY NICE EXAMPLE OF A WILLYS CJ3B AND ANYONE WOULD BE PROUD TO OWN IT.”

Not perfect, but looks solid.
“Ride away in this beautifully restored 1961 Willys CJ-3B Jeep. This Jeep underwent an extensive restoration a several years ago. The restoration included body, engine, drivetrain, brake, electrical, interior, and fresh JEEP “Rescue Green” paint! I also installed new wheels and tires during the project and did a few discrete upgrades by installing a CD player and speakers. This Jeep has a VERY strong running engine as well as a smooth shifting transmission and transfer case! It runs and drives great and is completly functional! I am unsure of original mileage”
