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 .

“Willy’s Jeep for sale. Purchase this Jeep and take it out off-roading immediately or take some time restoring it to your liking. If you’re looking for a jeep with no scratches, dents, bondo or rust, this isn’t the jeep for you. If you’re looking for a jeep to take out on the trails and not worry about scratching it, or if you’re looking for a restoration project, this is it. This jeep has been upgraded with a Dana 30 open knuckle front differential with a loc-rite locker, Dana 44 rear differential with posi-traction, both have 5:38 gears. The transmission was recently rebuilt and is tight. This jeep has a strong Buick 225 V-6 engine giving it plenty of power for those difficult climbs. It also has power steering and the tires have great tread. I have had the jeep for 20 years and I am just not using it any longer. I also have quite a few spare parts that will go along with the jeep.”
Has some updates. Seller really hasn’t driven this much.

“I have decided to part with my stock workhorse driver 3A. This is a great “drive-it-like-it-is” rig or a perfect candidate for a body tub kit.
It’s ugly but a very solid driver. Most of the work you usually have to do when you drag home an old Jeep has been done.
I routinely drive this Jeep on 150+ mile day trips without issues. It’s seen off-roading adventures at the NH Trail Ride and Rausch Creek, PA. Used but not abused.
The Saturn overdrive allows easy cruising speeds of 55 mph or better. I pulled the original 3A motor and replaced with fresher, stronger MB motor out of a genset. I will include the original motor with the sale if you want it. I will also include a fully functioning period correct Scheneker snowplow with Hy-Lo pump, a worn but functional vinyl BestTop and doors, and a bolt on roll bar.
Probably has an f-head.

“I have a 1950 Jeep Willy’s hardbody no motor or tranny but the frame is solid and the body is not bad at all”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $10,500
A reader shared this nice looking 3A. It’s got a few updates.
“I redid this Jeep a few years ago and have decided it’s time to sell.
New steel body kit.
Rebuilt Dauntless 225 V6
New Best top
Rebuilt drive train
Everything else new or redone”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $1250.
“1946 Willy’s Jeep with Subaru motor and chassis. A great project car that also runs.
We have more spare parts and extra tires and wheels too – all included.
Currently has a dead battery from sitting over the winter. We have used this on our property as a “mule” cart.
It is not titled, but I just called DMV and there is a simple process to take care of that to make it street legal.”
This could be a good price. Includes an overdrive and PTO.

“I am on the fence about posting my favorite vehicle ever…….but its time for me to move on to other things. She’s still running a 6-volt generator system, she has the original style flat head 4 cylinder, T-90 transmission, Dana 18 transfer case with an overdrive, and I also have a pto to go with her just the gear box that attaches to the transfer case and a original style top bows and door frames. Just need to have the original canvas top made.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1850.
Runs.
“1951 Jeep Willys
Project Time! Yep, rusty. She is a 1951 Jeep Willys with a good running motor. I do not have the time or the money to do it right, so I want to send it off to a new home where she will get the love she needs.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000.
I’m wondering if this was a DJ-3A body. The “side stripes” are right at the location where the large opening bodies had their slant. Factory T-86? Lacks an engine.
“Solid rust free body and frame. No engine, but it does have the original factory T-86 3-speed transmission and transfer case. This was running a small block Chevy until it was removed earlier this year for another project. Included with the sale is a set of sbc headers and the motor mount plate so that a sbc could be dropped in and bolted right up. This Jeep was a runner up until this year, so it won’t take much other than a motor to have this up and driving. I have the title in hand and it’s clean, clear and in my name.”
