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 $5500
“1949 Willy’s Jeep, 250 Chevy Engine Straight 6 with overdrive, 3 inch lift, 33 inch tires. Full removable Top. Removable tow bar”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4000
This looks like a good, solid CJ-3A.
“1951 Willy’s Jeep CJ3A Flat fender Ford 4 Cyl. Pinto Engine. New soft bikini top, maroon color. Nice stock jeep with no rust, runs good, cb, with rear seat, newer black & red interior, seats four comfortably. Willey’s logo is on tailgate.”
To say this is ‘all original’ except for the running gear struck me as strange. It would seem there would have to be a variety of updates to accomodate the running gear.
“it is all orignal except the runing gear. i put chevy 1/2 ton in it, i had them narrowed to keep the same look of the jeep, i still have the orginal front end. it also has a custom roll cage 33s but it will fit 38s all it needs to run is fuel lines and fuel pump”
I love the old hubs on this classic CJ-3A (pic below). I don’t think I’ve seen these Cutter hubs before. I did a search on them, but couldn’t find anything.
“Up for auction is an amazingly original 1950 CJ3A. This vehicle was used by the mosquito abatement district in Chico, California since the 50’s and has been very well maintained. Other than an inop vacuum wiper motor, worn clutch and non-original temp gauge everything is original and works! (Even the hand brake!) Unless the vehicle was in use it was stored in a closed maintenance garage contributing to the great condition of the body tub and frame. The only rust on the vehicle is located in the passenger side floor/hat channel, an area adjacent to the driver’s side top bow pocket and and area on the driver’s side just forward of the rear wheel well opening, (see pictures). That’s it! …. There is so much more! New battery and starter. Very unusual Cutter front hubs. You don’t run across one like this very often! Feel free to e-mail me with any questions you might have.”
UPDATE: Still available
Those old terra-like tires appear in pretty good shape. I had a set a couple decades ago before switching to desert dogs. This has a few dents and dings, but looks solid. I’m guessing it’s stored inside.
“1940’s Willys Jeep. Runs great. Needs some break work. Has a PTO. Has a hard top and doors.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6800.
This looks cleaned up and ready to hit the road.
“Restored registered and on the road 1949 CJ-3A. new tub, NO rust / rot rebuilt moter and axles with lockright in rear axle. to much more to list but restored from the ground up. has over $8000 into it. if interested e-mail I will talk have lots of pic’s. Joe”
The price appears to high given the state of the body, so I expect the price to drop before it is sold.
“I am posting this for my uncle it is a willys jeep year is between a 46-54. All the parts are there except the air cleaner, It has the original flathead motor, hi/lo transfer case. It would be good to restore or for parts. $1500 obo 502-291-0638 Jeremy”
This might be a pretty good price as it runs and drives. No glaring problems with the body that I see.
“1950 willys jeep runs good and yard drives, $1500.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6900
This looks pretty good.
“1950 Jeep CJ-3A. Original 4 cylinder engine, new radiator core, fuel pump, re-built starter. Runs great! Saginaw steering. Two soft tops, roll-bar and tow bar. All wheel/axle seals recently serviced and replaced. Lots of extra parts.”
This looks like a very good price.
“Great old Jeep! I just do not use anymore and it is in my barn. Runs great–probably needs fresh gas. All origininal. Call 608-576-3889.”
