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 .

Between the top and the tires/rims there is value.

This has a few updates. I can’t tell for sure, but their might be some rust along the driver’s side.
“1953 Willys Jeep, V6, Good tires, runs good but needs some fine tuning. No e-mails.”
This appears solid.
“I am selling a 1947 willys cj2a jeep. The jeep is in great shape with very few dents and there is hardly any rust in the jeep. the floors are solid and in good shape. The jeep has 5 new military 600-16 tires, has new carburetor, fuel pump and all the fluids in the jeep have been replaced. The motor was rebuilt several years ago and runs great. transmission shifts through all the gears and 4×4 works good also. Jeep has a nice snow plow on it along with a set of chains. Jeep would be a very nice set up to plow your snow off your driveway in the winter or to restore!! The jeep is located in Crawford Colorado but I am delivering another jeep to Colorado springs area the 2 through 4th of September so I could deliver to the springs for $200 bucks.. if you have any questions please call me at (970-462-7760) Asking $3,000 or make offer”

(06/18/2011) Interesting paint job. I’m wondering if some rustoleum has been sprayed over the rust spots?
“1951 Willys Jeep for sale. Licensed and registered in Idaho. Mechnically runs great any everything works. All original but needs some body work and a paint job. Drives verry good!”
The seller hasn’t started the jeep lately as radiator needs repairing. This has a rear PTO.
“This is a one owner 1951 Willy’s Jeep CJ3A with a hard top. The engine is a 4 speed manual, 4 cylinder and has a winch on the front and a PTO on the rear. The bodywork is in good shape for its age and it has most of the original parts. I have not attempted to start the jeep lately as the radiator needs repaired. This is a 60 year old classic. The vehicle located in Botetourt.

It runs but isn’t quite ‘street-able’; I’m not sure if that is a handling issue or street-legal issue.
“This is a running driving Willys with a clean title. All the lights including blinkers work, and this vehicle is very close to being street-able. I converted this to run a chevy 4.3 v-6. It was rebuilt 5 years with new marine vortec heads and edelbrock conversion intake and carb. I used a adapter plate with a brand new input gear to use the a original Willys trans and transfer-case. I have had this in the mud once and it worked out great. Could use a lager radiator but is not needed. It comes with extra parts like windshield frame, a good hood, axles, more transmissions and transfer cases, a aluminum half cab, a custom full roll cage, and several other parts. The body has had work done to it in the past and the paint is flaking off. The jeep is overall solid and would make a good project or toy as is.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3000.
Norm spotted this ad. The jeep has an interesting hardtop and unusual back. It appears well done. Does anyone know if the airforce owned or had other CJ-3As like this?
“airforce, toolbox, on wheels, very rare, many new parts, $3000 Troy, NY”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000.
(06/16/2011) Carlton is on the east side of the mountains near Twisp.
“This 1946 jeep is perfect for those who love to boondock, hunt or fish. v6 Buick gives you enough power to get out the mud or snow yet gets good gas mileage. Rig has a removable homemade hardtop, heavy roll bar. oversize aggressive tread tires with steel wheels, high- back bucket seats. this jeep is strictly a backwoods runner and not a show piece. It is strong in the off road mode. Might consider trade for running street legal motorcycle or a clean fold-a-boat sport boat.cs”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2800. Appears to have a Boston Top.
This looks pretty solid.
“1947 Willys. Runs and starts good. 5 new tires and a hard metal top. Please call 765-4268 for more info.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
This is a project, but there is some value. It has a PTO. Has a Kelly hardtop.
“I dont know much about willys jeeps , the man I got it from said everything works like it should . It started smoking and he took the head off the engine and lost interest in fixing it . It has been about 2 months since it has been cranked and when he tore the engine down . The jeep is very clean for its age and has a hard top with doors . All the glass is good and unbroken except for the windshield , which has a large crack down the center of it. The tires look to be very new and excellent shape with very deep lugs on the thread. It has a tow bar on the front end and a bumper with place to put a trailer ball on the rear . Would make a excellent hunting jeep or a great restoration peice . I am unsure of the exact year model , I was told it is a cilivian jeep not a military jeep. Has high and low range transfer-case and four wheel drive . Does have some rust , mainly the drivers floor board next to the door . It is painted camo all over with leave print on it . Jeep is for sale as-is , where-is , and I am not promising anything . I have described it to the best of my knowledge . It has warn lock-in lock-out hubs . The exhaust system looks to be recently replaced . The doors , back hatch and tail-gate open and shut as they should . Has seats that flip up in the middle to access the back . No rear seat . All parts to the engine are inside the Jeep , including the carburator .”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $4200

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1600
I can’t tell if it runs or not.
“Hard top pto winch hard doors”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $895.
What I love about this ad is that the jeep is priced at $895 in the title, but then the seller notes he won’t go lower than $800. So, maybe $800 is the price?
