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 $2500
This is worth a closer look. It appears to be sporting a M-38 dash panel.
“Willys 1949 CJ-3a, 4 cylinder 3 sp. 4×4, rebuilt top end. NEW: gas tank, windshield and frame, wheel cylinder. Runs good, needs master cylinder”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $2995. More pics.
(07/08/09) Here’s one for you Pittsburgh Steelers Fans!
“Very cool driver>>>>all original drive train and still runs like new. This is a good project or keep as is and use as a slow driver. No speed demon here as this was designed as a work horse with top speed around 50 mph. This is a good 20 footer and is a lot of fun. Take to Sand Lake and you can drive to town as this is what we used it for. Give me a call and we can make a deal as I am out of room. John @ 360 600-8213. Will deliver locally. It also comes with tow bar and you can Rat Rod it or make a cool Hot Rod too!”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7800
(12/28/09) Here’s a modified CJ-3A.
“4.3 Chevolet Vortex fuel injected V6, TH350 automatic with 700R first gear, D20 transfer case, D44 rear end with pos., D30 front end with new drive line, New power brake unit from Jets, Power steering with flaming river shaft, Flaming river tilt wheel, New brakes – new brake lines – new wheel cly. Completely rewired, Front fenders widen 3.5″. Led tow lights – Tow bar 2″ ball. After market Late model fuse panel with spade fuses. Honda seats – custom rear seat with storage under. Custom rear carrier. KC drivingt lights – custom backup lights. CB Radio – hand spotlight. Frame boxed in stress areas. Custom gas tank 15 gallons under rear between frame rails. 33/12.5/15 MT Claws on 15/8 soft 8 black rims. New exhaust system, mufflers and tail pipes. Front and Rear Heaters.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
Note that the front end appears lengthened. That looks to be a tilt fiber glass front end, though I don’t remember seeing them looking that stretched. The body might be a M-38 body as I see some tool indents on the passenger side. The front end has some warn hubs similar to what you’d see on a 70’s CJ-5. This might be a pretty good deal and an interesting project.
“this is a 53 willys it runs great it has been converted to a 250 inline 6 so the front frame has been lengthend 6 inches , it has oringinal axles tranny and transfer case, i also have a bihimi top for it with doors, it runs super just looking for a cj5 or 7 1500 obo or trade for???”
UPDATE: Price dropped. New pics added.
(11/29/09) What is that hose running from the passenger seat to the front of the engine? It’s still needs finishing of some kind.
“1951 Jeep Willys; 350 engine, Edelbrock aluminum intake, holly 750 carb, turbo 350 transmission, headers, runs good, don’t have time to finish. New tires, gauges, fuel pump, water pump, and rancho leaf springs. Questionhttp://www.ewillys.com/wp-admin/post.php?action=edit&post=21438s call Tim 355-0233 MAKE REASONABLE OFFER!

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500. Given it runs and drives, it sounds like a deal.
I can’t tell whether this is a CJ-3A or M-38. I *think* it’s a CJ-3A with a M-38 Gauge Dash.
“$1500 Firm no trades, no checks. 1952 Willy’s. I am selling it for a friend. It has a ford 260 v8 in it. Runs great and drives… Collector plates.”
In December of 2009, the ‘town’ of Rawhide held its 1st annual Car Show & Swap Meet. Now, I’d never heard of Rawhide, so, after a few quick searches, I found and took a look at their website. It turns out it is a tourist town full of events, eateries and things to do for kids and adults.
I learned about this event from a blog entry by Mr Greenwrench, about whom I know nothing except that he takes good pics and lots of them! So, thank Mr. Greenwrench for the 3 Jeep images below — all three outstanding Jeeps!
Here is a photo of Jesse Ybarra’s M-667. You can learn more about it at the FC-Connection website.
According to Dennis, this FC-150 belongs to Bill Thomson.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was Make Offer.
Best offer takes it. It hasn’t been run in a few years.
“1951 Willy’s Jeep. Great project. flat 4 engine was rebuilt 5 years ago, still needs new/rebuilt carborator and new rear seal. Body/Seats need work. Has sat for the last 5 years, I did not have the mony to complete rebuilding it.”
UPDATE: Was $1350.**SOLD**
How about that windshield! I’d like to take a closer look at that.
“Great Project for any collector of Ex Militery Vehicles from WWII or just a great vehicle for the beach! It has a rebuilt 231 V6 which needs to be finished, all parts are there. It just needs the right person to put it together!”
UPDATE: Was $1200. **SOLD**
(12/30/09) I’d like to see some more pics of the custom paint job on this old school build. No tranny, tc, seats or steering column.
“This is a one of a kind Jeep Willys with custom front fenders, flared rear fenders and a full cage row bar. It comes almost complete to get it back on the road again , it has all running gear except transmission/ transfer case and a steering column. We are including a running nice Buick v-6 motor. It has been garaged for 25 years so it is in great shape. Also it has been non-op through DMV so there is no extra fees to register. We must sell and will sell for $800 without the motor or $1,200 with, trades considered”
