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: **Status Unknown** Price was $4750.
Could be worth a look.
“All original, 4 cylinder, winch, Willys has new radiator, needs some other work but not much. One seat needs upholstering. Has all canvas top and sides with it. Been in Arizona all its life. Brand new spare tire to match others which also have no road wear.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was FREE.
Ryan spotted this free stuff.
“Old willys jeep cj3. Frame is extended and on dodge ram axles (additional rear axle included). Needs a lot of work but could either be a project or just to scrap. Missing grill and hood. No wheels so it would have to be flat bedded out on dollys. I can offer minimal assistance getting it off jack stands and removing from garage. Completely free”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7500.
This includes a dolly trailer and Bantam TC3 trailer.
“1959 Jeep CJ3B, 1947 Bantam TC3 trailer and JEEP dolly to haul any flat fender JEEP. 3B has a rebuilt F134 Hurricane engine and runs pretty good. Transmission and transfer case were rebuilt at the same time and were all installed almost 4 years ago. Needs a carb rebuild since it has been sitting. Has a Warn Overdrive installed which gives a 30% reduction in engine speed and doubles the number of gears you have.
All of the work that I have done to it was completed a little over 3 years ago. Complete braking system, except hard lines, was done. BF Goodrich All-Terrains were installed. All seats redone. Duraliner bed liner rolled into the tub. Rattle can paint job in desert tan. Bluetooth stereo.
Jeep is overall in good shape. There are some rust holes and a few places underneath where someone welded on some random plate for repairs. 1947 Bantam is in pretty good shape. Has some rust spots in the tub. Tows great, tires are good and lights work.
Jeep Dolly is made specifically for hauling flat fender Jeeps. Balanced good and has a trailer brake.
Have titles for all. $7,500 cash gets everything and some miscellaneous parts that I have as well.”
Appears nicely refurbed. I like how the cardboard over the license plate is labeled as a license plate.

This has a replacement 3B body, so, given the year listed, it might be a modified CJ-3A chassis with a 3B body. The springs are SOA and outboarded in the rear.

The hood is really throwing me on this one. It suggests the jeep is a low hood, but the body is 3B.
