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 .
Needs a starter at the very least.

It’s got worn brakes and a fuel line leak.
“80% original. I purchased this in 2015 from the third owner as a possible restoration project but I don’t have the time or energy. Believed to have been in southern New Mexico for at least 40 years. 12 volt conversion. Clear title. Original flathead 134 engine. Seller indicated he had engine rebuilt and personally rebuilt both axles but couldn’t provide receipts. I put on about 20 miles in both 2WD and 4WD before parking it in July 2015 and it ran strong and tight. After bringing coolant up to sub-zero specs it’s been parked ever since. Transmission and transfer case shift smooth and tight with zero slop. Original tailgate and hood have embossed WILLYS i.d. Some Bondo patching is evident on body tub but extent is unknown. Tub has moderate rust perforation on underside bracing. All five tires hold air – wheels are non-OEM chrome. Marine-grade vinyl upholstery and top were added at some point – all in good condition (canopy top and bows are included). Also includes various spare parts that were purchased but never installed (seat belts, new starter, locking hubs). Not drivable due to leaking fuel line and worn brakes, and carb is gummed up after 2 years parked. Sold strictly as-is with no guarantees. Mileage unknown (mileage on odometer is incorrect).”

Has some updates.
“I have for sale a 1952 Willys CJ3A Jeep with a 3 speed transmission and a Chevy 4.3 V6.
It has a new tub, fenders and grill from Kaiser willys.
All new gauges with sending units.
New wiring harness.
Rebuilt Chevy 4.3 V6 with less than 500 miles.
Engine had a Edelbrock Performance 4 barrel carb and aluminum intake manifold.
MSD coil on distributor ignitions system.
Relocated oil filter.
New performance 3 row aluminum radiator.
New thermostat and water pump.
New Flex-a-lite 2500cfm fan.
Rebuilt T90 3speed and transfer case
Samurai axles front and rear with disc brakes in front.
Optima battery
Electric fuel pump with new fuel tank.
I have a binder full of receipts on the original build that nearly exceed the asking price. Not to mention the time that has been invested. Only issues I would address would be to re-gear the Jeep or install an aftermarket overdrive to have a slight lower RPM while cruising on 2 lane roads. Also the front drive shaft needs to be hooked up, due to a clearance issue. Otherwise this is and excellent show winning vehicle that could be a great weekend driver! Only selling to pay off some debt and get my shop in order for future projects.
I’m currently asking for $11,500 OR BEST OFFER.
I will consider partial trades for other Jeeps, Scouts, land cruisers or any interesting projects.”

“Partially restored Willys CJ3a. Have Title for vehicle. Started restoration several years ago but it can be someone else’s prize. Many new parts already installed. Have all of the original parts for finishing. Willing to listen to offers but it is worth the price for a base model for complete restoration. Has metal cap and Roll bar. ”
