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. This section used to be split into jeeps, parts and other categories, but recent changes to eBay will require this information to be recoded.
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 $1750
(01/12/10) “1947 Willy’s Jeep. Runs, has roll bar just powder coated. Have additional original thin wheels. Serious inquiries only please.”
I ran across this January 2010 review from Autoblog.com of the Icon CJ-3B yesterday. The author simply gushes over this vehicle, arguing that this vehicle really is worth $50,000 more than the $21,000 wrangler.
Here are some excerpts:
At this point we normally pose a question – something like, “Is the Icon CJ3B worth $50,000 more than a Jeep Wrangler Rubicon?” But here’s the thing, after a few hours of exposure to the CJ3B, it’s unquestionably worth the money. That’s right, we’re just going to start the review with the conclusion, then explain exactly why this little Icon is so darn special. And believe us, the CJ3B is exceptionally special.
Take Icon’s latest model, the all new CJ3B. Based off the 1953 Willys CJ3B (Icon amazingly holds the rights to the name), [head designer] Ward explains that the design ethos of the old Willys Jeeps was longevity, simplicity and utility. Not only does Ward appreciate these qualities, but he finds them “Sorely lacking from the current automotive industry.”
The EcoTec motor emits less pollutants during a full day of driving than a 1953 Willys CJ3B does just sitting and venting gasoline fumes. As Ward explained, Icon is such a low volume producer that they’re exempt from smog laws. They just happen to run O2 sensors and catalytic converters because they want to. Ward plans to eventually offer the CJ3B in not only a diesel version, but full electric as well.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
This is an odd build. I wonder just how that top is attached.
‘hello i have a 1942 ford jeep, has its orig gpw motor , run and drives , have pink slip in hand , is non opt .. call me at ”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000.
I like this one. If it were closer ….. This appears to be an old club jeep with the rare windshield mod and some great old slot rims. It also has an updated column, probably power steering, and likely swing pedals. This might make a good foundation for an old school build.
“1947 Willys Jeep- set up for small block Chevy engine. No engine in it now. $1000.00 or best offer.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4750.
Here’s a GPW with some matching numbers.
“1945 WWII MILITARY FORD GPW Jeep Matching Numbers Frame, Engine, and Data Tag on Glove Box. Has CJ T-90 Trans; Chevy steering; CJ Axles; Roll Bar; Tow Bar; Hubs and Best Top. Runs Great.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $650.
“1949 Jeep CJ3A, ran when parked. Grandfather used jeep on ranch, but has not been ran for six years. Original engine and drive train. Comes with Ramsey winch. Would make a great restoration or 4X4 project. Title has been lost & the vehicle does not have visible VIN numbers.”
Yes, it’s nicely restored CJ-2A day today. This is the best price yet.

This looks pretty original. I can’t tell if there’s a little damage on the passenger side or not.

Only 7,700 miles and owned by a single family. Kind of funky bumpers.
“7,730 original miles. One-family owner! Meticulously maintained and in excellent condition. First year of CJ-5 production. Original engine.”
Here’s another good looking CJ-2A.
