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 $4500.
Includes a ventilating windshield.

“1953 Willys Jeep CJ-3B, all original, flat-fender, first year of the “Hurricane Four” 4 cyl F-head motor. Original 6-volt electrical system, original oil-bath air cleaner, original vacuum motor windshield wiper. It has spent its whole life in the Oregon High Desert east of the mountains, so there is no significant rust, and was driven only locally for the last 50 yrs, so it has not been “put through the wringer.” Was driven occasionally and parked in back of the house for many years, and has been in a garage for the last several. It could probably be driven away, but has rarely been run for the last 15 years or so. Probably has gas varnished up in the fuel system, and should have a hi-detergent oil run a short while before an oil change, etc. It should probably be taken to its new home via a trailer for face-lift and/or restoration. Got a bunch more pics, email-able, if you’re interested —

“1946 CJ2A Willys Jeep- This jeep was 90% fully restored all original to vin number range when I was rear ended last year. The frame is cracked and body has been damaged but can be repaired.

Want to see somebody put this jeep back on the road rather than sitting idle in my garage.
Also comes with several boxes of extra parts, gaskets, new seat back cushions etc, a roll bar designed specific to cj2a.
All new brake work and suspension was done just before I was rear ended. ”

“I orig. purchased this to build an offroad vehicle and then found out it was an actual M38 Military Willys that was only made from 50′ to 52′ and not just a normal cj2a-3a jeep so I have decided to move it on hopefully to a collector of this type of vehicle as it would be a shame to cut up a piece of history , It has been updated/changed over the years so it is not 100% original but it wouldn’t take much for the military Jeep collector to return it to stock , In its current state it runs and yard drives enough to move it around or load it on a trailer due to it needing tires and some carb tinkering/tune-up work , Continue reading
UPDATE:**SOLD** Was $3400.
Runs and drives and includes a parts jeep.
“Classic Willy’s all original, runs great, 5 new tires, all stock. Throwing in additional Willys parts, windshield, etc …”
This looks good. I’m a little puzzled by the bulge just in front of the tools on the passenger side. Maybe that’s just an illusion of some kind?

Nick’s selling this 3A with an original Blackhawk plow.
“For sale is a 1950 Willys CJ3A Jeep, I have a clear title in my name for this. It has an era-correct rare Blackhawk plow system. This was one of the better plow kits for the Jeep as it included a full undercarriage plow frame, which prevented the Jeep frame from getting bent. The frame is all solid without any rot. She starts right up and runs great, clean burning with no smoke. Tires are a little dry but I’ve driven it down the backroads without a problem. The body is pretty solid with some patch panels, and the rear floor is in unusually great shape. The only problems with the Jeep is the master cylinder has a leak which needs to be replaced for brakes ($50 online), and a 6” external oil line is leaking below the filter. I just haven’t had time to get to it. Clear glass windshield like new. Also this has a clean soft top to keep the weather off while plowing, and was used to plow a golf course in Michigan. Here’s a list of everything I’ve done to the Jeep:
-Planed head and gasket
-Complete carb rebuild
-Clutch, pressure plate, throwout bearing, pilot bushing
-Fuel pump/lines
-Brake line
-Spark plugs
-Wiring
-Ignition switch
-Refurbished starter
-Engine belts
-Radiator hose
With all the new parts it’s essentially a turn key running Jeep. The new clutch system shifts smooth, and does not pop out of 2nd gear; the tranny and transfercase is nice and quiet. All the fluids were clean when I changed them. This Jeep is ready for plowing this winter. Feel free to call/text me anytime. Would also trade for an M35A2 Deuce and a Half in good shape w/military tires & PTO winch, preferred non-whistler D turbo and rear canopy”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay
“here’s your chance to own a very rare willys fire truck and they don’t come up for sale often. This willys fire engine is in almost new condition with only 3300 miles on it. This truck was bought new and was the only fire engine the town had until it was replaced in 1972 then it sat in the fire hall un till march of 2015 when I bought it 🙂 Since I have brought it home I gave her a new 6 volt battery and a bit of a tune up. The water tank in the back leaked so I removed it and repaired it and in the process I damaged some of the pipe fittings to the pump so there is a few new 1″ fittings that don’t take away from its quality and curb appeal.
What also makes this fire truck stand out is it was not built in the USA it was built by the Sterling machine and manufacturing co. right here in Canada if your a Willys jeep kinda guy you may have heard of them they also made trailers and pto type accessories. Im happy to assist in shipping anyway I can.
This little unit runs drives shifts and stops if you have any questions I would rather answer them on the phone so feel free to call me any time between 7 am and 9 pm 7 days a week but please keep in mind the time change as im in Calgary Alberta Canada.”
