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 .
Maybe someone can use this?

“Currently restoring a 1943 Ford GPW and bought this tub to replace my original tub that came with my Jeep. Had this tub for a little over 3yrs and was slowly prepping it for my restoration. While restoring the tub I found an original Ford GPW ACM Type I tub, so this one went into storage. Asked several of my Jeep friends if they wanted this tub and got no response, so its going up on here.
MB Parts.
“This is a great start for an MB project. There is a ’46 cj2a frame that is straight, solid and converted to take an MB body. Front and rear axels, leaf springs, two tubs that could be rebuilt, fenders, 2 hoods, windshield frame, inner windshield frame glove box cover and top bows. Comes with a go devil motor that ran when it came out. Also comes with the cj2a front and rear axel, and civilian motor with tranny and transfer case that can be rebuilt. This project could be in rolling chassis in a few hours. I was going to do the build but the time wasn’t available.”

Purchased in March of 1967 by the White River Township Fire and Rescue Department in Winchester Indiana, she was used as a brush vehicle in service until 2002. Actual milage in 2002 was under 10,000 miles (I have a letter from Chief Stacy H. Lewis attesting to this). Current mileage is under 19,000 miles.
She has been in my possession since 2010. Partial restoration done by High Lift Jack Co. in the early 2000’s. Between 2010 and 2013 she was disassembled, the engine (original) was taken apart and cleaned and reassembled. All plastic and rubber parts were replaced. A fully integrated custom roll-cage was fabricated with safety in mind. Four Range Rover jump seats with custom headrests are bolted to the roll-cage. The driver and passengers are all secured in the vehicle with 4 or 5-point racing harnesses.
UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was $5500.
(07/27/2014) Listed as a CJ-3B, it looks to be a DJ-3A, yet has a side gas inlet. I can’t tell if it has a rear inlet. Doesn’t run.
“Was intended to be a project but we have too many happening right now. This will make a great vehicle to use for parts or to restore!”
Greg tells me that a few years ago he was half-heartedly looking for a flat fender when found an old, modified (or perhaps more accurately hacked up) 1956 DJ-3A for sale. He bought it and began a complete refurbishing of the jeep into something he could dependably drive on-road and off-road. He credits Randy Ellers, his boys, and eWillys for a variety of the ideas he employed in his rebuild. The real credit goes to Greg himself, as it looks like he’s done some great work on this rig.
Greg writes, “I had been seeking a flat fender Willys off and on for several years, and had taken to surfing several jeep sites on the net in search of a suitable candidate for my goals.
I wanted something that I could keep true to the character of the Willys, but improve on the dependability and capability over time. When I found my jeep, the condition of the body is primarily what attracted me. The body was in better than typical shape for its age and I thought it would be a good start point for my vision. In fact I thought it would be roadworthy enough to make it a long term project while having fun jeeping it as I enhanced things.
As purchased, it was a 1956 DJ3A body on a late CJ3A chassis with an owner built roll cage, Vintage 8000# Ramsey winch, 10.50 x 31 Michelin tires on 7×15 wheels. After service as a runabout delivery vehicle in/around Auburn, AL, it eventually became an unlicensed farm vehicle for many years. Evidently the original hard top can be credited with limiting typical rust damage.
Shortly after I got it, I rebuilt both the three speed and transfer case. I also found a full set of 4 NOS 11” brakes to significantly improve stopping power. Soon after, I discovered the engine block was cracked so the search for acceptable re-power was on. Ultimately the Chevy 4.3L Vortec and TH350 transmission got the nod.
Over the course of the past 5 years or so, I’ve essentially gotten the jeep close to where I want it both in character appearance and performance. I’ve had it on a few club and Jeep Jamboree events and to date it continues to impress me. While it doesn’t have the creature comforts or modern flex suspension of the newer jeeps, it still does rather well on the trails, and we have loads of fun with it.

Seller has melded a flat fender body and CJ-5 body, though does note it in the description.
“1959 Jeep CJ5 The frame and drive train are late 50’s. I had the (F head) engine rebuilt when I first bought it in 2006. I took the trani/transfer case to a trans shop and they went through it to make sure everything was ok. I had a seal replaced in the rear end at the shop where they rebuilt the engine.The frame and drive train are in really good shape. The body is not perfect. The Jeep was made to look like a ’49 Willys CJ2A. The body was added and lifted up about 3″. It starts right up, purrs like a kitten and always passes inspection.”
