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: **SOLD** Was $700
This might be worth a look. The poor paint job might be masking a reasonable body. I wonder how the seller knows the running gears are good (because it rolls?).
“i have a 60′ willys jeep with a title,the body is in good condition for the year,the r unning gears are good and the motor was running when the jeep was parked a couple of years ago but doesnt start now.the jeep seems to be all original for the most part”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.
This CJ-3A looks in decent condition. Strangely, it’s got both passenger and driver side spare tire holders.
“Lost my deer lease, selling my 49 Willys Jeep CJ3A, only 235 miles on new (not rebuilt) transmission/transfer case, new drive shafts, new front axle, new fuel tank, steering parts, Solex carburetor, OEM Jeep seat frames/cushions, 12 volt system, professionally rebuilt rear axle, tow bar, bikini top, rebuildable transmission/transfer case included. Excellent deer lease jeep, starts and runs good, very dependable.”
UPDATE: Updated description
It’s a nice looking jeep. Note that it has a M-38 body, so maybe this is a M-38 or maybe it’s just a M-38 on a CJ-3A drive train.
“Nice 1951 Willys CJ3A frame / M 38 Millitary tub / Fresh 350 motor / 400 turbo trany / Dana 30 front end / Dana 20 transfer case / AMC 20 rear end / Paint is ok, has some chips and spiders / Have a nice top / Runs & drives great! Lots of fun!! $8,000.00 OBO Thanks, Dave 503 320-0620”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4000.
This jeep has some good lines, a nice paint job, and some good tires/rims. But, the box on the hood …
“Nice Condition. Rebuilt F-head out of a CJ3B,(not a flat head) 3 speed tranny, Baby blue with pin stripping, custom 6pt. roll cage, 6000# wench, tow bar, rear jump seat with storage under, Best Tops soft top with full doors, 2 1/2″ Rancho lift, 31X10.50 BF Goodrich Mud Terrains, chrome wheels, Dana 44 rear (welded) with 5.38 gears, Ready for a weekend in the woods!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1600.
I’m not sure what is funkier, the roll bar or the paint job. However, I don’t think the price is too bad given it runs.
“For sale is one Ford GPW World War Two, 4 Cylinder Jeep. Motor did/can run good no smoke. Needs some work to get it running. $1000.00 of new Jeep parts and VERY good Willys original rims/new non-directional military tires, 6 ply nylon included. Newly rebuilt orig Carter Carb and new fuel pump. 134 L-head Willys flat head four cyl. Lots of new parts that need installed. Or this jeep can be used as parts or a rebuilder from frame up. $1600.00 FIRM with $1000.00 new parts included. Serious inquiries only! Price has been lowered to minimum due to needing it moved from my backyard.”
Despite the seller’s assurances, I’m quite sure this isn’t a CJ-3B, lol. It appears in good shape though.
“1951 Willys model CJ3B odometer says 55566 it is probably correct, but we could not verify the actual mileage. Runs great looks great… a real head turner, Military look, could use minor interior detailing and reconditioning but is a complete working CJ3B and fine example for a vehicle of this age. Any questions or additional pictures needed please call me at 978-682-3200”
This GPW body looks like it’s in pretty good shape.
“This is a 1946 Ford Military Jeep Willys CJ. It does have the engine, but it is not running at this time. My husband has owned this jeep for quite a while, and was planning on restoring it someday, but we have just not had the time or the money for this project. He did have it running at one time, but it has been sitting for quite a while. It is pretty much complete, and would make an excellent project for someone who had the time. I will be happy to answer any questions that I can.
This is going to be local pick up only, or if you would like to arrange your own pick up and delivery, we will be happy to work with the company that you choose to facilitate that.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000.
Here’s what appears to be a very restorable VEC CJ-2A. And it runs!
“Here is a 1945 Jeep Willy’s for sale. Its been off the road for about 12 years. Stock flat head engine. The oil’s been changed and a tune up has been performed. Carb rebuild, plugs, wires, points, condensor, interstate battery. It runs but “pops” back through the intake. It drives but needs brake work. Someone left the lid off of the master cylinder for quite some time. The rust is around as you can see in the pictures, some parts are very rusty but the chassis is sound. I was planning on fixing this for the ranch I live on but I just do not have the time. Clear tiitle. I will deliver it if I get the right price for it. Can be seen 9 to5 monday through friday and weekends by appointment”
This jeep sports a fiberglass body.
“Had Frame Off Resto in 2006. Nice fiberglass tub painted with bed liner. Ford 302, runs great! Has power steering. Led tail lights. Drives well and more importantly has brakes! Newer 31 pro comps. Have t18 that goes with. Just looking to get a new toy. Cash talks! No money orders wanted! No shipping.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
It runs and drives, but needs some restoration.
“you are bidding on a 1958 jeep willys pick up truck forward fc-150 controll four wheel drive tag number 65548 / 18336 barn find has been stored since 1983 previous owner had it running 1 year ago after putting some money into it his back went out and he closed the barn up , i will put a fresh battery in it and start it up and update the listing this is a running jeep , this willys started out in life in the fire dept. to bring stuff to the scenes ,”
Update: Well, not so fast. I thought this was sold on eBay, but the deal must have fallen through. Now it’s back on eBay.
This appeared to sell on ebay for $9100 last month. The seller was asking $7500 on craigslist.
Restored CJ-3A with a few upgrades plus a Bantam trailer.
“1952 CJ2A & bantam jeep trailer. completly gone thru in 2004 jeep & trailer/new paint/new seats/new aluminum rims&tires/12 volts/also has back seat & 10″ x 2″ brakes. jeep & trailer both match in color/tires & rims.”
This ad expired Jan 09, 2009, but I suspect this jeep (aka Wild Oats) may still be available (I only saw it for the first time today). I haven’t seen many of these in Utah.
“SAND DRAG JEEP 1946 Ford CJ2 Jeep. Built frame up.4×4*small block chev* B&M blower* alu. heads* 12,000.00 invested in eng* lenco 3speed air shift trans* Center line wheels* paddle tires* Fiberglass body* black exterior* black interior* lots of chrome & some gold anadized parts*”
This is an interesting jeep with a variety of upgrades, including a ’45 (MB?) body on a 70’s CJ frame and running gear. Someone knew what they were doing. Given the upgrades, this price would be hard to beat if you had to built it yourself. I hadn’t heard of the Hyrdrovac brake system.
“Custom 1951 CJ. Stretched 45 body on a 70’s CJ5 frame. 4 speed with granny low.
Dual stick transfer case with 2 wheel low option. Ford 300 in-line 6. Dana 30 front axle with disc brakes.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $10,000
“1943 Willys MB Jeep for sale. Partially restored, has currently rebuilt F head later model 4 cylinder engine, over sized brakes. Non-stock wheels and tires. New canvas, seat and top.”
Here’s an article from the BlueRibbon Coalitions’s sharetrails.org website. The California Association of 4 Wheel Drive Clubs (CA4WDC) is celebrating its 50th anniversery.
Here’s an excerpt:
“1959 was a momentous and pivotal year. Fidel Castro became prime minister of Cuba. Alaska was admitted to the Union as a U.S. state (with Hawaii soon to follow). Rock’N’Roll was heating up the airwaves, and the California Association of Jeep Clubs was formed in April in Tulare, California.
Steve Morris, a member of the Sacramento Jeepers, was elected as the first president of the Jeep Association, an organization that would retain that name until 1962, when it officially became the California Association of Four-Wheel Drive Clubs.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000.
“1947 jeep for sale 1200.00, obo. this jeep has all the parts, the motor, transmission, transfer case and a extra frame for parts. it will require you to put it all together. i would love to but have to move”
UPDATE: It seems I put the wrong link into this Ad. Now, I can’t find the link. I suspect this has sold already. I’ll keep a watch for it again.
Here’s a pretty CJ-3B. Lots of big pictures and detailed information on new parts included in the Ad.
“1953 WILLY’S JEEP COMPLETE RESTORATION $18,000 IN RECEIPTS 30+ PICTURES UP FOR SALE IS A BEAUTIFUL 1953 WILLY’S JEEP. THIS BEAUTY HAS UNDERGONE A HUGE RESTORATION! IT WAS ORIGINALLY PURCHASED TO GO HUNTING IN AND TO ENJOY! BUT NOW IT’S TOO NICE TO TAKE OUT ON IN THE BACK COUNTRY. I DO NOT GET TO DRIVE IT AS MUCH AS I LIKE SO I HAVE DECIDED TO SELL IT.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $9995
“Very cool 1953 Willys High hood Jeep!!!! Jeep is in great condition, runs and drives great!! Call for more info or stop by and check it out. VIN# 453GB237401”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3750.
This appears to be a great price on a nice looking CJ-3B.
“For sale: 1962 4WD Willys Jeep CJ2. Good condition, runs great, looks great as you will see in the pictures. Jeep has transportation tow bar in the front and trailer hitch. New starter, and new tires. Please email me if you have any questions. This is a nice, clean vehicle and has been protected from the weather. Serious offers only. Vehicle is located in the Tyler area.”
This is a very good price on a running M-38. Is that the driver-side step hanging off the body?
“Cheaper than a 4 wheeler and alot more fun! Engine rebuilt, brakes good
608-792-6930”
UPDATE: SOLD for $2800
It appears the gauges and steering column have been updated. It appears in reasonable shape.
“Willys Jeep 1946 CJ2A with V6 Buick engine and new top and battery. Good 31 in. BF Goodrich tires with spare. T-90 Tranny. Good front seats. This Jeep is fun!! Runs! Go 4 wheelin’!! Full roll cage. Cash only. No checks. No shipping. No trading. Vehicle located in Napa.”
This CJ-3B has some unusual upgrades. I haven’t seen a roll cage quite like this one; and, I’m not sure about having the tubing, unpadded, right behind the driver and passenger. It’s worth a review.
“1960 willys cj3b, vin 5734860874, about 400 road miles since built, original frame “solid no rust” boxed. cj-5 running gear, front is a dana 25 or 20 completely rebuilt including brakes, rear is a dana 44 same as above, motor is a mid 70’s Buick odd fire 235 v6 it is completely rebuilt from the crank to the heads mostly stock rebuild by a professional ….”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1200
“Willy’s jeep, body straight, 3 speed manual tranny, no motor, 4 wheel drive, new tires, roll cage, lock out hubs, clear title, tow bar, all instruments work, $1200 obo.”
This jeep sports some classic old tires that look like they still have some decent tread on them. I had a set back in ’84 like that set.
“1948 Willys Jeep would make a great hunting vehicle or just a fun 4×4 to take mudding. Runs strong and fun to drive. It has a new battery & new gas tank. New Master Cylinder. For more information or to set up an appointment call 832-257-8904. $3,750 Thank you & have a great holiday!”
