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 $4000.
The Kelly top looks good. A tiny bit of rust ont he side. Appears worth a look.

“Selling a Willy’s cold weather hard top in good condition. Should fit ww2, cj3a and cj3b I believe. Came off of a cj3a.”
Looks like they’ll need some polishing.

“1953 Willies metal hard top and doors. the glass in the doors is cracked but all of the parts are there. Price is negotiable.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $9695
(08/15/2018) This appears to have a CJ-5 hardtop, hence the reason it fits oddly at the windshield.
“Nice running and fully operational 1951 Willy’s CJ5. Has a manual winch on the front that operates like a comealong ratchet. Has some type of custom rack system for carrying boards, or long pipes ETC. Hard top and rear bench seat. Equipped with an external rear box for carrying tools or luggage ETC. This is a perfect Jeep for restoration or getting back to your back 40 in old school style to stretch the fence lines! It starts up and stays running on the first try.”
No Updates Thursday. They’ll return Friday.

Floors might have some rust.
“51 M38 Willys Jeep with artic top. All original parts.”
Looks quite complete. This was made for 3 years (1950, 1951, 1952), not two years. Also, not the last of the flat fenders.
https://boise.craigslist.org/cto/d/m38-jeep-1952/6706150121.html
“This a military M38 Jeep. Only made for 2 years. The last and best of the flat fenders. Converted to 12 volt. Has lots of extra parts and goodies. Has a full winter cab and heater.”
I think I found this photo on Facebook last month. To me, this looks to be a hardtop contract from Willys-Overland with tops supplied by Worman (based on my discussion in this Worman-Related post). I tried to find out more about the contract number, but all I could find was a mention at G503: https://forums.g503.com/viewtopic.php?t=189059&start=75
UPDATE: Price dropped to $125.
(10/16/2018) Might be worth a look. Missing rear door.

“aluminum “Boston” cab for Willys Jeep CJ2A fair shape, suicide doors, rear door missing
$300.00 or best offer”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.
This top is similar to a Porter & Reed top, but has some different assembly strategies. It might be home made.
“1947 Willy’s CJ-2A project Jeep. Ran when I bought it a few years ago but had a bad head gasket leak. I have replaced the head gasket, intake and exhaust gaskets, cleaned the valves and replaced the valve gasket, plus I have new gaskets for everything else. New plugs, belts, welded a hole in the gas tank, new water pump, new thermostat and new oil filter. I have also installed a tow bar. Still needs new battery and the tires are worn. Recently moved and just have time or a good place to wrench on it plus my son lost interest in working on it with me so figured it’s time for a new home. It needs the carb re-installed, fluids, battery and should be ready to run. Has some electrical issues but the lights work. Great project keep for someone to finish.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $350.
The hardtop alone is worth the price.
“Willy’s cj3b motor gone. May good parts,axles,windshield frame,frame. Has Tran and transfer case. Has hard cab. $350.00”
Funky paint job. Has diamond plating over the right rear wheel well.
https://bend.craigslist.org/cto/d/1951-willys-cj3a/6727731318.html
“Nearly all original. Running gear and body in good condition, no rust or rot. Koenig hard top, custom paint,
diamond plate corners. This Jeep has been used as a hunting rig for the last 57 years? at our cabin in Eastern Oregon. Stored inside and never abused. Has had regular maintenance, oil and coolant changes, tune ups, etc.
This is a good solid little Jeep that we just don’t use any more. License is current and we have title.”
Appears in good shape.

“1947 cj2a willys jeep. This jeep was restored frame up a few years back with photos. Runs and drives great for a old jeep. Has new wiring and brakes. All stock with rare Koenig hard top everything works.”
Matt’s selling this hardtop. Looks like Koenig hardtop, mid-1960s, and probably a 550 Super Full Cab. The sliding side windows, the slight angle and the front top of the door window, and the angles of the roof fit that model.

“1959 CJ-5 Complete Hard Top for Sale
This hard top and doors came off of a 1959 CJ-5. It was well maintained throughout the years and is in complete functional condition today with only a few spots containing surface rust (where the Jeep’s body would have touched).
All glass is intact and damage free
All windows function
Hardware to attach it to your Jeep is not included
Beautiful wood paneling on roof and doors
Manufacturer is unknown to me, as there is no id plate attached.
This top is steel and heavy. It is a minimum two man lift.
Yes…it is Pink! The story is a farmer in the UP bought the CJ-5 Jeep new in 1959 with the hardtop. After some gentle use (no dents whatsoever on this thing!), the Jeep given to the farmer’s daughter on her 16th birthday. She immediately had the entire Jeep professionally painted PINK. All the wood trim was removed, it was sprayed and reassembled.
The gentleman I bought this from restored the Jeep, but only had plans for summer fun, and had no intention of driving it in the winter and did not want the hard top. I bought it with a friend for a winter Jeep build, but that project has been abandoned for a CJ-2A project instead.
I will not ship the top. That is not possible, so please do not ask.
I will only accept cash as payment and I will only sell this to a real live person, standing in front of me.
If you are oversees for work and your Brother’s X-wife is going to come take a look at it, she had better bring cash, a pickup truck and be able to dead lift 150 lbs.
I will not talk money on the phone, text or e-mail. I have some wiggle room in the price, but I know how nice this 59(!) year old top is and I will keep it before I give it away.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1250.
Travis spotted this pair of CJ-5s.
“Selling as a pair for parts only with bill of sale . Both have accessory PTO and Koenig hardtops. They have not run in decades. Both roll and steer. Rotted chassis on each. Call, NO texts”

“Parting out a 48 Jeep, whole or parts I just need the front Differential. Everything is in pretty decent shape but the front floor have been patched, but not very well and probably need to be redone. The frame has been converted to use YJ springs. I believe the Dana 60 in the rear is out of a 76 Ford 3/4 ton truck and measures 67 inches wide WMS to WMS, and I believe it has 4.10 gears in it but I would have to double check.

“Becks all steel top just removed from willys jeep. Top is in good working condition. It does have some rust. Can bring to Hermantown.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $900.
This might have a slightly modified Porter & Reed hardtop, but I’m not certain of that.
“1948 Willy’s Jeep CJ2A. Have clear title. Disassembled but have all parts. Steel hard top. Frame and main parts stored in a storage container. Body is solid but ruff. Frame is good, axles, transfer, tranny engine are in good shape.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $400.
Looks restorable.
“I have a Kelly All-Steel hardtop for sale. It came off of one of my CJ3b’s. It is not in perfect shape as you can tell by the pictures, but it is mostly all there and complete. It has the doors and rear hatch. Door handles work and the rear hatch handle works. Windows will roll up and down with help and could use some adjusting. All of the glass is there with the exception of the driver’s side door window is cracked and the rear hatch window is some type of plexiglass (not certain if that is original or not). There is a dome light inside the cab, but I am not certain if it works and is missing the cover.
There is rust, but it is solid. There are no holes through the cab from rust, but there are a couple screw holes from where someone had a CB antenna or something similar mounted to it. There could potentially be other small holes that I have not noticed. Please look at the pictures closely. I do not know much about the hardtops for the Willys jeeps.”
