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 .

“1953 Willys Jeep CJ-3B, all original, flat-fender, first year of the “Hurricane Four” 4 cyl F-head motor. Original 6-volt electrical system, original oil-bath air cleaner, original vacuum motor windshield wiper. It has spent its whole life in the Oregon High Desert east of the mountains, so there is no significant rust, and was driven only locally for the last 50 yrs, so it has not been “put through the wringer.” Was driven occasionally and parked in back of the house for many years, and has been in a garage for the last several. It could probably be driven away, but has rarely been run for the last 15 years or so. Probably has gas varnished up in the fuel system, and should have a hi-detergent oil run a short while before an oil change, etc. It should probably be taken to its new home via a trailer for face-lift and/or restoration. Got a bunch more pics, email-able, if you’re interested —

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1800.

(09/04/2015) Has a couple updates, but looks like a solid jeep.
“1953 Willys CJ3B. Motor, transmission and transfer case have been gone thru. Has front and rear axles out of a 1971 CJ5 with 10″ shoes. Tires are almost new and have low miles on them. I have a hard top and doors to go with it. Needs some minor body work and the paint is showing some age. I am only selling to fund my M38. $5500, no trades. Text messages preferred, but I will call back if you leave a message.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4500.
Seller calls the engine a flathead, but it’s an f-head.
“This jeep runs and drives good. It is equipped complete with Warn winch and soft top. This jeep still has the flat head 4cyl. engine and three speed transmission. It also has brand new Buckshot tires. Call for more info. ”
No pics provided. Seems overpriced for something that needs work.
“Willy Jeep runs. Original parts. Does need work on fuel pumo and vacuum. 1952. I do have the original electrical harness for the electrical hook up. Asking 6000$ or best offer.”
UPDATE: Was $4500. Now Make Offer.
Brakes need some work.
“I have a 53 CJ3b Willys jeep. Original engine. starts and runs good. It has aftermarket air filter and fuel pump. I have the originals and are in working order. The seats are aftermarket. Tires are in good shape. This could be a nice jeep for someone that can put the time in.
The breaks could use some work and the clutch is at the end of it’s life.
Id be interested in a trade for a side x side or other reasonable trades”
http://tucson.craigslist.org/cto/5327539356.html
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3800.
Looks pretty stock. It only shows 10,000 original miles, but the odometer cable could have broken.
“I found this Old Willys Jeep in a Barn way up in the Pennsylvania Mountains from a long time family friend, it’s only got 10,000 original miles on it, 4 cylinder 4×4, good dry cab, good glass, some rust here and there, hasn’t ran in years, I may mess with it and try to start it if I get a chance, clear title, great winter project,”

Seth checked out this 2A-sort-of-turned-into-a-3B. He understandably decided to pass on purchasing it, but thought these photos were worth sharing.

Not sure there is much value here.
“Up for sale is a 1950’s Willys Jeep don’t know the year but early 50’s. For parts has complete drive train. ”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2800.
This may be worth a look.
“957 Willys Jeep CJ3B. Runs and drives well. New wheel cylinders, master cylinder and flex brake lines. New fuel tank and rebuilt carburetor. Very little rust, the worst being the rear floor due to having a mat in it for years but it’s still very usable as is. Now it’s far from perfect but it functions like a Jeep should. With a new set of tires it will be a great Jeep. Price is $2800 so the first one with $2800 will take it away. No text. No trades. No help to sell it.”
Looks good.
“this cj3b is a rare find all original, except tire’s and wheels and top. dealer instaled winch and under coating, it’s the one that one never find’s or some one got there first. this is a one owner who passed it to his brother in the late nintys, and has been in the basment of the house for years. it wants to run good but seams to have a intake valve not seating probably from sitting, have more pic’s if needed,check my feed back and buy with confidence.”
