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 .
Looks good. Lots of updates.

“1956 Willys Jeep CJ2A for parts or restoration if you are ambitious. This was originally used at the airport as a baggage conveyor in the 50’s and 60’s. It was running as late as 1995. The passenger side of the body was modified for the conveyer. The engine, transmission, transfercase, front axle, steering, brakes, frame seat, gas tank and dash are intact. The rear end has been removed but there is one loose that appears to be for a Jeep. It comes with original documents and bill of sale from the airport. It was not titled since it was not intended to be driven on the street. You will receive a bill of sale. You will need to be able to load it onto a trailer for transport.
Email if interested and for more information. We will be available Friday 9/30 to 10/2 and can show it at that time. It is located near downtown Eugene. ”
UPDATE **SOLD** Was $6500.
Bill spotted this 3B. It appears to have a classic California jeeping bumper. I ran across an ad for these in one of my old Four Wheeler magazines.

“I have a 1953 jeep Willys CJ3B for sale. It’s not in the best shape, but I bought it off of a lady who let is sit for 27 years so that’s to be expected. My original plan was to restore is, but an opportunity has come up that I need some cash for. This is a very rare, one of a kind jeep. this jeep does have the hard top with it that is very rare. It also has the spare tire carrier that mounts to the side with the spare rim. All the rims are original with new tires mounted on them. I currently have the engine pulled for inspection. After opening it up I see that it is able to be rebuilt, but it will take some time and patience and most of it will need replaced. The engine has a little bit over 46,000 miles on it. The body needs some work also. It has no floors and the sides need to be patched in some places and completely replaced in others. I do have a new 4 x 8 foot sheet of 16 gauge thick steel that I will sell with it to make body panels out of. All the brake drums are freed up and it does roll and the steering works so you can move it easily. This jeep is a project, but if you have been looking for a jeep project, then its perfect. All the gauges are in it and in decent shape also. If you have any questions or are interested feel free to email me, thanks.”
Doug spotted this former Shriner’s jeep. It’s listed as a 1953, but it appears to be a post 1956 3B.

Does not run at the moment. Sounds like it could be something simple.
“This was my dad’s vehicle. It has been 1 owner, and used as a work vehicle for many years in a sawmill. I don’t know a lot about it. Dad bought it in ’54/’55. It has a period motor, though not original. It ran when I got it, then the throttle cable – choke (?) broke and I have not tried to restart.
It has the frame for the soft top, but not the top. Front seats have been recovered. Has a box full of parts. It has had some body work done – such as replacing a fender. It comes with a utility trailer made from and old Willy truck bed I believe. Hard to part with as it was my dads who passed away, but it should be restored vs. sitting and rusting away. My hope was to have it restored, but not being able to work no it myself, it was too cost prohibitive.
I probably won’t be a wealth of knowledge on it, but ask anything and I’ll do my best! I will try to get a picture of the engine in a few days. The colorized pic is from several years ago when a friend cleaned it up. It does stay undercover and under tarp, but it needs more protection that that I feel.
Title should not be hard to transfer. I have what I need (I hope) from my dad’s paperwork. If not a local pick-up/ haul, you will need to arrange and pay cost of transport. I can easily be available to meet.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $10,000.
It’s an ex-Forest Service jeep.
“1953 Willys CJ3B Jeep. Jeep was formally a US Forestry Service Fire Jeep in South Dakota. It has spent its entire life garaged and only has 7,000 miles on the odometer. It is completely original except for changes made by US Forestry service. The original green paint is showing through some areas were the fire truck red has oxidized. There is zero rust on this Jeep. The frame still shows original black paint.
I have done some resurrection work since I’ve owned it. Major items include: seals and gaskets on transmission and transfer case, rear main seal, clutch disk and pressure plate, radiator re-core, brake drums and shoes, knuckle seals, carburetor rebuild, fuel tank and sending unit, hoses, water pump, points, cap, rotor, coil, battery, generator rebuild. I have heaps of spare parts (repro and NOS) that will go with it. Price is firm, no offers please. This is a real “time warp” machine and I hope the new owner will preserve it as it is.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $500
Not sure how much value is here. Listed as a 1960.
“Does not run, head is off the engine, have all the parts and was a complete jeep, needs some tlc but lots of sheetmetal is new, front floors are solid, frame is solid, there is a large gas tank across under both seats, rear floor needs attention, not sure on year and I have no paperwork, price is firm, the rollbar belongs to another vehicle”
I really had to stare at this one for a while. I *think* this is might be a 2A with some 3B and wagon parts. But, it also has full floaters in the rear. I like the “original” flathead engine that is actually an f-head.

Runs and drives, but needs brakes.
“Clear Texas Title in my name and in-hand! This Jeep is ready for the ranch or deer lease. It is not currently street legal, but can be with a little work. It is also not a candidate for a Concours restoration in my opinion, but you would have to make that decision yourself. If still interested, keep reading. . .
