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: Price dropped to $400.
(05/05/2014) Clutch needs replacing.
“Probably restorable but not by me. Just put a new head gasket in…good compressoin now. That was one of the reasons I parked it 2yrs ago, the other reason was the clutch and that still needs to be replaced. Rubber is good enough to tow someplace close.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4500.
Listed as a CJ-3B, this jeep has a CJ-3B VIN plate. I’m not clear what else is part of the original CJ-3B.
“Up for sale is my CJ3B Jeep. 10k in new parts on her. It’s a V6 3 Speed 4×4. New Tires, New Top, has a brand new bikini top to go with it. Runs excellent. Motor was rebuilt a while ago, along with a transmission rebuild and transfer case rebuild. Rhino Liner in the interior and exterior, very clean. Has explosion-proof gas tank, brand new seats, removable rear seat. Center console is weather proof and lockable and has a radio in it. Starts easy, runs great. My loss is your gain. 9800 miles showing on the odometer, not sure if it is true or not.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3300.
Looks like the seller was testing paint schemes on the windshield frame?
“Hunters special! Starts right up, runs great, original jeep 4 cylinder.
Includes new bikini top and tow bar. Heavy duty winch.”
There’s some value here. Neither project runs.
“I am selling two early CJ2A projects with a ton of extra parts. There is enough parts to build both jeeps and have extras left over. I have a rebuilt Buick V6 with the adaptors and motor mounts that cost me almost as much as I am asking for both jeeps. There are titles for both. One has the PTO on the trans. One is an early column shift. There are extra hoods, fenders, tailgates and more. One has the frame for a soft top, and one has an aluminum hard top with doors. As you can see in the pics, these are projects that do not run. Willing to consider trades.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
It’s a project.
“Jeep Willys CJ3a. Brought up from Virginia. Flat fenders are getting hard to find. Great raw material for a restoration. Easy to work on. Come check it out. Contact Tim Mon thru Sat, days”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $650.
“This is a complete L-Head 134 cubic inch flat head 4-cylinder “Go Devil” engine. Fits M-38, MB, and CJ-2A, CJ-3A. Should also fit a GPW. It was a military engine, rebuilt in 1953 by 229th Ordinance Base Depot, TEWOS (Plate attached). Turns over easily. The block is good with no cracks, but the cylinder walls are pitted.
This engine is complete with carburetor, oil filter housing, air cleaner, fan, distributor, manifolds, crossover tube, carburetor linkages, etc. I may be willing to sell separate parts off this engine if no one is interested in the complete package. Also, I would be willing to strip the extra parts off the engine if someone only needs the block. My asking price will be adjusted depending on what parts you need. Please email me (via Craigslist) with questions or requests.
I have many other Willys parts, such as Dualmatic lock-out hubs, CJ-2A soft top plus frame (rare white, like new), CJ-2A or 3A soft doors, 6-volt generators and starters, etc. Send me an email if you need any flatfender Jeep parts.
Historical note: The 229th Ordnance was based in 1952 and 1953 at Tomioka, Japan, between Yokohama and Yokosuka on the main road. This engine is a Korean War veteran, and would be ideal for an authentic M-38 restoration. “
UPDATE: Price now $5200.
(06/19/2014) This jeep has one of the more unusual F-bumps.
“1948 Willys Jeep. Very rear. Looks and runs excellent. Newer engine with low miles. Great fun for the summer. Turns a lot of heads. Hop in and drive it away.“

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3200.
(07/08/2014) “Will run” suggests it doesn’t currently run. Appears very restorable.
“WILL RUN
NEEDS BRAKES
THIS IS A RARE FIND
BEEN SITTING IN A BARN FOR THE LAST 10 YEARS”
I’ve been oscillating between chills and a fever all day. So, no updates to the site AND I haven’t checked Tuesday’s emails. I’m improved tonight, so there’s hope for feeling better tomorrow.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5500.
“New upholstery and bikini top. Complete tune up, all original parts in motor
4cylinder 6 volt. Motor has been overhauled.”
