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: Still Available.
(02/23/2018) Looks like a solid build.

1952 Willys CJ3A Jeep 1/4 Ton pickup with L134 flathead 4 cylinder engine. This Jeep has a three speed manual transmission with a era option Warn overdrive unit. It was converted to 12 volt and now has an alternator as well as 4 wheel manual disc brakes and a dual bore master cylinder. I bought this Jeep several years ago and took it apart to fix a number of things that needed repair. I have driven it on and off over the years, using it mostly for a quail hunting rig here in the southwest. It’s time for someone else to enjoy the Jeep so it will move on to a new caretaker.

(01/15/2017) I don’t know why the front of the hardtop looks so old? The top could be an early Meyer, but I couldn’t say for sure. Doors look Meyer.

“Was supposed to be a little restoration project. Tore down the motor and took the body off the frame but that was as far is it got and just don’t have the time anymore.

Includes an extra engine. I believe that’s a Kelly hardtop.

“1953 Willy CJ3 Jeep runs good has a rebuilt radiator, good tires, has a spare engine that was given to a school by the National Guard and was used for students to tear down and put together. It was disassembled by a mechanic and found it has no problems and was put back together—it’s basically a new engine that has never been run, has a tow bar, the Jeep will need brakes and some tender loving care but would be a good project”
