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 .
CJ-3A Body and other parts.
“1949 Willys CJ3A Metal Body :
Hood, Grille, Tailgate, Windshield and Fenders
Some Rust”
http://newjersey.craigslist.org/pts/4433334550.html
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4900.
(04/21/2014) The seller lists this as a 1952, but the Navy tag indicates this is a 1953. The yellow on the dash reminds me of the APU jeep color. Canoe is included.
“Mostly original U.S. Navy Willy’s Overland Jeep, loaded. Original, rebuilt Willys motor w/most all of its original parts. Runs good and quiet, doesn’t smoke. Authentic PTO winch (Great condition). Warren Overdrive. Period style hardtop and doors (Not bolted down). Extremely rare, original heater (Pictured). Original gauges that mostly work. Original seats need upholstered. Rear dual gas can/spare tire carrier (Not pictured & no cans included). Fold down windshield that pops out while its up, also (Really cool).
Accessories:
Expensive leaf spring set-up that gave it a 3″ lift. Roll bar. Newer shocks. Brand new BF Goodrich Mud-Terrain tires. Older Chrome rims. Old wood frame CANOE IS INCLUDED for the full price.”
I thought we’d seen this one previously. It uses a latch system to secure the tail gate. Looks like a good build.

Could be made into a racer, too. Buckshots in the front and Desert Dogs on the back.
“I’m selling my ’49 Willys Bobtail Jeep. This is a Great Trail Jeep or Mudder or Rock Crawler or Whatever.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500

“VINTAGE ***1951***WILLYS JEEP
If you are looking for a Jeep that is mechanically sound, dependable and a lot of fun this may be it. Is mostly original except it is painted and has decals as a military jeep just for fun. The seats were recovered by the previous owner. The vehicle is for fun and for farm or ranch or a hunting lease use. And, it is EMP proof.
New body. Still a project.
“Brand new willys overland body , on 71 v6 cj5 drivetrain, almost complete”
http://akroncanton.craigslist.org/cto/4419181639.html
This jeep appears to have a replacement body. I like the hardtop/doors setup. I don’t recognize it.
“I have a 1953 Willys Jeep with a snow plow for sale. Fiberglass top, roll bar, lock out hubs, engine heater, 2000cc Ford motor. Three speed with high and low gears plus power take off. Used it this winter to push the snow”
http://detroit.craigslist.org/okl/cto/4417866834.html
Base on the motor and the year, I suspect this is a CJ-3A with a 3B body.
“1950 Willys Jeep: Good bones minimal rust, mechanically sound with original engine however previous owners may have used expired poultry to apply top coat paint. If you are a latte drinking hipster lacking calluses on your hands this vehicle may not be for you. This vehicle is for the guy who has shotgun shells in his dungaree pockets, dirt under his finger nails and may associate the term drive through dinner to the bugs collected in his teeth in route to a destination.
New items include: tires, hoses, 12 v system, alternator, gages, seats, steering wheel w/integrated horn, exhaust, turn indicators, shocks, brakes, etc.”
