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: Pics provided. Price dropped to $450.

(03/25/2010) This looks like a nice CJ.
“1951 Willy’s Jeep CJ3a. I bought this Jeep a few years back from the original owner. They had converted it to a V-8 back in 1971 or so. Chevrolet 283 out of a Chevelle. Runs and looks great. It has been in storage in my barn for 2 years now. I bought new rims and tires for it and haven’t driven it since I put them on. The top was new when I purchased it and it’s in great shape. It needs a good cleaning from being in storage. I do have the owners manual and prior service notes done by the previous owner. It does have power steering as well.”
I wanted to thank everyone for the kind notes that wandered my direction in my hours of need. Fortunately, I was not so ill that I feared for my life; no, it was just a cold that I hoped I could sleep away (and am better today). None-the-less, Gerald took it upon himself to search the internet for a few pics that might cheer me up. Without going into his slightly twisted approach to this task, I will share the below pic.
I must say, I will never be well enough to lick chocolate off of a Jeep. Never …. hmmm … unless it is 60% Belgian Dark Chocolate. Only then will I even consider it.
I don’t know the history of the “lick off”, but I haven’t seen that much tongue action in years.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
“this is a 1959 willys jeep with a 289 small block ford engine. No registration or title. Has too much dmv back registration due to be worth registering. cash sale. runs good.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** at Auction.
Both of these Jeeps appear in good condition. It looks like the GPW (the jeep pictures at bottom) comes with the some stainless.
“1944 Ford Jeep w/only 87 miles and 1946 Willys Jeep w/only 307 miles both are going to be auctioned off at MILLBROOK MOTORS, 1474 Tremont Street (RT 3A & Rt 139), Duxbury MA. This is a public auction, secured party sale, which will be held on Saturday, December 11, at 11AM (preview 9AM)”

“1957 willys Overland Wagon, very very clean, 307 buick rocket motor, very clean body, sitting on s-10 frame, just need wiring and finished, Have everything needed to finish minus driveshaft.”
This doesn’t look too bad; if the price is right this might be a good project.

“i have a 1948 jeep willys flat fender that i bought in the process of a restoration. this jeep had a ford small block v8 w/ c6 tranny when i bought it, but i made arrangements with the previous owner as he wanted to keep the motor… so, buy a ford v8 and bell housing, and everything will bolt right up and run! this jeep has soa lift started and everything is in place, but perches have not yet been welded, so if you want, you can set suspension back to stock. the frame was sandblasted and repainted by previous owner, and it has custom fabbed rollcage. the jeep’s tub is in great shape with no rust holes or rot, as the jeep is from tennesee where i bought it, however, it will need to be painted. like i said, it had the running ford v8 drivetrain in it, so all the fab and mod work is done, no guesswork needed. call 920-251-2910 and leave message if interested.”

“
I have had this Jeep for the past 18 years and am the second owner. It is in very good shape being a Calif. vehicle all of its life WITH NO RUST. The 3B is in very good condition but not a “show car” it does have a few bumps and bruises but NEVER BEEN ABUSED. The 3B is very capable off road and I have been to such places as Moab UT, Rubicon Trail in CA, Ducey Trail CA, Pismo Beach, Dumont Dunes and numerous other trail in CA, UT, AZ. The 3B will stay with the newer CJ5, Wrangler, and any other 4×4 off road, 4×4, rock crawling or in the sand dunes ( I just wish I had paddle tires at times ) …”
