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 .
This is a mix of CJ-2A and MB parts …the chassis appears to be CJ-2A.

“**** NO TITLE**** 1950-53 (or so) CJ3a purchased over a decade ago for use on our farm. After searching for parts it was brought to my attention the title for this vehicle did not match the vehicle. Being used strictly for farm use this made no difference to me. Now that I am selling it, this should be considered when purchasing it. I have no interest in helping a Current buyer obtaining a title. You are purchasing this as parts, there is No title! WWII style split rims and tires. Engine, transmission, front and back axles and transfer case are all in working order, the brakes need attention”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
Is that a ‘lock box’ mounted to the dash?
“rice reduced—THIS IS THE REAL THING 1947 JEEP HAS A BUICK V6 THAT WAS RUNNING WHEN PARKED SOME TIME BACK OVERSIZED TIRES WITH NICE RIMES BUT BAD TIRES GOOD SOLID BODY NEEDS SEATS WELL,, COMPLETE RESTORE.. HAS BUILT IN TOW BAR COMES WITH EXTRA GRILLE AND OTHER PARTS THESE BABYS ARE GETTING RARE.”
Given the hard top, there seems to be value here.

“This is the willys md variant. It use to be a plow truck. Hasn’t run in years. Ran when it was parked. Looking to sell. $600 or best offer”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Were $300.
After a closer look, it appears the serial number makes the DJ-3A a 1962 (#56337 22581).
“Here’s a rare 60/40 or split front seat out of my 1964 DJ3A. It needs restoration or recovering. My DJ3A was a surrey originally and you can see the original pink and white stripes under the tan. Frame has been repaired at some point. Perfect for your surrey restoration.”
The cover of this Willys News highlights marketing’s strategy for attacking niches that could use four-wheel-drive vehicles.
UPDATE: Was on eBay.
This is likely the first station wagon brochure for the ‘brochure family‘ that the Kaiser Willys marketing team produced. It’s from SD-221-4 and has the KW logo. This is currently available on eBay.
Here was the subsequent version (see all pages here):
