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 $8000.
(02/02/2011) Looks real nice.
“54 willys cj3b high hood. Extremely nice jeep. Has a 289 small block ford. with a 3 speed transmission with a warn overdrive. Warn winch. Custom front and rear bumpers. Racing bucket seats and a back seat. Rhino lined tub on the inside. No rust in jeep. Like new 33×12.5 mud terrains. Really nice jeep.”
Here’s the Tender that started it all.
It was this Tender that came on the market by the previous owner that got me asking the question, what is this thing? So, it is with some irony that Bob forwarded this Ad to me and asked whether this isn’t a modified wagon rather than an actual Tender. The thing is, there is one other just like this that was for sale. You can view it here. So, I’m not as sure that it was a custom job.
“1951 Willys overland panel wagon that has been chopped into a pick up. Runs and drives, needs master cylinder, and front fenders bolted back on, needs new tires or tubes, 26,000 original miles, 4 wheel drive all fully functional and tight. Has currant registration and title in hand.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $250
(04/08/2011) This looks like a CJ-5/m-38a1 cage. You can tell because the front loop bend is pretty high, compared to low hood flatfender frontloops where the bend should start lower, and the front loop is the same width as the rear loop (thanks HOG).
“This cage came out of my 51jeep willys. It is powder coated blue with dark blue flacks and has two RCI seats. Asking 300obo. Thank for looking. Luke. call or tex but please no email. 3604023307”

Looks solid. I think it runs, too.
“Vintage 1948 Willys Overland Jeep, model CJ-3A, with Sears half cab body and ISAR hydraulic pump system for snow plow (plow is not included).
CONDITION: Drive train, consisting of engine, transmission and transfer cases, is in good condition with no known problems. Non-directional tread tires and tubes are excellent. Steering box, brakes, shock absorbers, instrument gauges, body and seats all need restoration. New gas tank was installed about two years ago.
This jeep is an excellent candidate for restoration back to original conditon or, as a work vehicle on a farm or private property. Included are parts book (numbers and descriptions), mechanic’s manual and parts catalog. All, reasonable, Best Price offers considered.”
Alex spotted this illustration of a rocking jeep a long time ago. Thanks for sharing it. I think these would sell . . .

I wonder what’s underneath all that diamond plating. The yellow one looks solid.
