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 $10,500.
This flattie has an unusual hardtop and door setup. It looks well done; I can’t tell if it was home made or commercially produced, though I have no brochures for a top like this.
“1953 Willys CJ3A V6 Buick with a Ford 4 speed top loader, Power steering Front disc. brake, M/T wheels with 33/ 12.5/15 Extra set of wheels tires for winter 35/12.5/15 PTO, wench, hardtop and doors $10,500 OBO”
Seller mentions this is a project jeep, but it seems in pretty good shape. It’s got a Kelly hardtop.

Hopefully, the funky top has protected the body. No description provided.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was No Price.
There could be a some small value in the parking brake and column shift parts and a few other items.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.
Craig shared this early DJ-3A #1134. There’s a lot of stock jeep there.
“1956 Willys DJ3A “The Dispatcher” Slated as a light delivery vehicle this is the first year for this model of Willys. The production number stamped in the frame is 1134 I believe. I will confirm that. This was my dads first vehicle and has been in the family since 1961. As far as I know we were the second owner. I have the original title. It’s a project. I have almost all of the original parts. What is missing is the motor, radiator, and seats. I have three of the original hubcaps. I have two tires on it that do hold air. The floor pans are rusted out. Last time it was on the road was 1973. It does have a factory heater. If you know the DJ’s then you know it is factory 2wd. I also have the doors. This is very difficult to post as I have a long history with this vehicle. Circumstances in life change and sometimes you have to let go of dreams. Ask any questions you want. I have more pics somewhere I will add later.”
Has body rust. Top looks in decent shape.

“Drove it into the shelter last fall,hard top is in nice shape, body has rust”
There seems to be some value here.

“1956 Willys Jeep CJ3B. New electronic distributed and Solex Carburetor. Runs but still needs some TLC. Good deer lease vehicle. Gauges and lights work. Breaks lines are in good shape, but cylinders need to be rebuilt. 4×4 works. Spare tire is also included but not in the pictures. Winch is included.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.
“Willys cj3b jeep with hardtop. Motor runs well- good oil pressure needs reassembly to drive most parts are present. This was an airport tarmac truck. I figured that I would offer it up in case someone had time to work on it. It’s going into storage soon until I have the time to work on it unless someone is interested in taking on the project. I don’t need to sell it but won’t have time to get to it anytime soon. Clear title in my name with current registration. Somewhat of a rare jeep especially with the hardtop. The price is firm.will consider trade for highboy ford truck or manual transmission scout.Message me for more details or pictures . Was originally government issued with original paint present under the repaint.”
Seems like a fair price.
https://worcester.craigslist.org/pts/d/westminster-alum-hardtop-doors-cj2a-cj3a/7484842834.html
“Aluminum hardtop with doors from jeep cj2a. Will also fit cj3a good shape one broken window but is flat. Glass ice addition to a classic jeep… sell for $250 cash”
TJ shared this cab enclosure style hardtop. I can’t tell if the door windows are original or not. Maybe they were removed, repaired, painted and reinstalled?
https://www.facebook.com/commerce/products/5681893345157184
“This canopy fits WWII models CJ2 and 3.
Possibly latter models but I’m not sure. $1200 or best offer. It is in Athol. I will remove the post when it is sold.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $500.
Dave bought a CJ-2A with this cab enclosure included, one made by Pentagon.
“Aluminum hard top with doors. It came off a Willys CJ-2A. It may fit other early CJs, please check. Good condition, very solid. It has cracks in two windows and a small hole in the driver door. You must pick up, cash or Venmo.”
This has the 0-10 King Seeley speedometer, so is likely an early 1955 jeep.
https://sfbay.craigslist.org/pen/cto/d/san-carlos-1955-willys-cj5/7490732116.html
“1955 Willys CJ5, Stock / Uncut.
4 cylinder, three speed, with hard top and doors.
Running condition, current registration.”
This 2A includes a Porter & Reed hardtop and plow, so there seems to be some value here.
https://boise.craigslist.org/cto/d/boise-flat-fender-jeep-cj2a/7494048918.html
“Cj 2a old jeep, no title, hard cab, home made snow plow, complete and pretty straight. Floor pans look OK from on top but cross members and floor rusted out underneath. Engine turns by hand but have never tried to start it.”
David spotted these Kelly hardtop doors (distinctive lines along bottom of the doors), likely from the late 1950s or early 1960s prior to the Safari Top line.
https://ventura.craigslist.org/pts/d/ventura-old-jeep-parts/7481097210.html
“These fit an 60s to 70s jeep m38 or cj5.”
Looks like a good price, though the front floors have been patched. The Beck hardtop looks in good shape.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1424965917925845
” 1947 Willys CJ2A. 4WD A survivor. With steel cab, side mounted spare tire, Reese Hitch on back. 4 cylinder Willys engine. Seat belts, hand rails and steps added for convenience & safety. Starts & runs good. Not a Wrangler – but FB forced me to pick a similar model.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8200.
Given the dash plaques, this was likely a long time Jeep Club jeep. This likely has the F-5-200W Kelly hardtop (it could have been original to the jeep).
“Clean little 1966 CJ5 for sale runs and drives great, v6 96000 original miles. Hard top, 3 speed manual with two speed transmission. Defrost with heat and 2nd heater for cab. No rust just a couple minor dings. Also comes with factory driver seat, hydraulic snow plow, plow lights. Cool little jeep, just a little small for me. Clean title in hand.”
Tom shared this M-38 that is supposed to be rust free (though it has some slight surface rust. Still, it’s worth a look.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/518176020056368
“For sale is my 1952 Willys M38 (military jeep). The top is a factory “Arctic Top” that was installed when new. The Jeep was originally in the military then was purchased by the forest service and they painted it forest service green. This jeep has almost no rust on it whatsoever! Floors, body, hat channels are all completely solid and rust free. Some stuff was modernized: 12v converted/solid state distributor/standard fuel pump but I have all of the original 24v waterproof distributor/plugs/wires/pump. Lots of new parts, radiator was rebuilt, new fuel tank, seats. All gauges work like they’re supposed to. The Jeep runs and drives great and I drive it regularly. It has a clean Ga title in my name”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $500
This factory CJ-5 hardtop looks in good shape. I’m still hoping to find documentation that confirms the top was manufactured by Koenig.
“Original 1960 hardtop and doors for a willys cj5, no leaks good warm top in cold weather.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(05/23/2022) Besides the 2A, the seller also has a CJ-5 and other jeeps for sale. The 2A was previously an Amador County Search & Rescue jeep and has a Warn OD, a Sears branded hardtop, and a PTO(?) winch.

https://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/cto/d/diablo-reducedcj5-jeep-289-v8-pre-smog/7480032652.html
“Cool little flatty with some rust but alot of good going for it to restore or just have years of fun.
First it has all the original date plates (vin tags) including the brass one on the dash, straight Willys hood, tailgate and windshield.
The full hardtop and doors are aluminum and made by Sears this one is in really good shape considering it’s age, not perfect but all the parts for the “roll” up windows are intact and 2 of the glass pieces are perfect, the others are easy to match and source.
The mechanical winch works.
The Jeep has most of it’s original parts including 16″ matching steel wheels. The motor has been changed to a Buick “Dauntless” V6 and (ironically) it doesn’t run yet. I am soaking the pistons before I try to crank it over. It is full of oil without water and looks good under the valve covers etc. “Ran when parked” according to the 81 y/o guy that has owned it since 1979. It has a Warn OD, original T-90 / Dana Spicer 18 transfer case and 25/41 axles. The floors have rust in the front footwells and in the tool box (from sitting) but the back floor, wheels wells, fenders, hood, grill, etc are sound. There are a few more spots of rust throughout the body but it’s a CA car so nothing you can’t work out.
Come take a look I have a few Jeeps for sale as I realize I can’t keep them all. Make an offer while you are here with cash in your hand if you want me to think you are serious. Ask me if “it’s still available” and I won’t sell it to you.”
Unclear if the trailer is included in the price.

“53,000 miles

I’m not sure how much value is here or what it will take to finish this custom rig.
https://cosprings.craigslist.org/pts/d/woodland-park-willies/7485904453.html
“I don’t know much about it. My ex and our good friend purchased this from a widow who’s husband was building it, and now I am currently separated and need to sell it as I can not finish the project. No title. Please call or text me to come take a look. I’m in Woodland Park, which is about 25 minutes West from Colorado Springs. I don’t get to my emails often, so a call or text is best.”
This is an early hardtop by Porter & Reed. It looks to be a Full Econo-Body-Type “B” model.
https://bozeman.craigslist.org/pts/d/bozeman-willys-jeep-hardtop/7478587123.html
“No idea who made it, can’t find any tag or stamping. Grabbed it for my ’47 2a but am not going to use it. In pretty great shape considering it’s age. Both doors intact.”
Dan shared this stock CJ-2A with a Porter & Reed hardtop.
https://billings.craigslist.org/cto/d/billings-1947-willys-jeep/7487504385.html
“1947 Willys Jeep all original, only thing missing that I am aware of is the original generator. I don’t believe the cab is original either. Has been sitting since early 1970’s and does not run that I am aware of. Montana title in hand.”
Engine may be stuck.
