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 $2100.
(10/23/2016) This runs. Looks like a good price.
“Up for sale is a 1953 jeep willys cj3a. Runs and moves under it’s own power. has flat 4 cylinder with a 3 speed manual transmission with 4 wheel drive. Great restoration project or do a little work on it and drive it as is. it’s non op so no back fees. No windshield. has some rust.’
Lots of updates. Not sure why it is titled a CJ-3A.

(11/15/2016) Runs, but needs a fuel pump or something else.

Plenty of spare tires with this jeep.
“The frame-off restoration includes new front brakes, a new gas tank and lines, new front, rear, and transfer case seals and a total rewire with new wire (6 volt).
It has been updated with a more powerful 134-F “Hurricane” overhead valve 4 cylinder engine.
It has been fully cleaned and repainted.
Completely new tub body. New fenders. New hood and custom scoop. New windshield and frame.
Sporty black and silver custom paint job.
All new period gauges and equipped with seat belts.
This JEEP is ready for exploring the trails, hunting, or roughing it in the canyons.
It is perfect for a quick spin to the golf course or mail box. Kids love to ride in it. It is licensed and ready to go.
It would be fun at JEEP shows or in parades!
We are showing a dually tire setup, but they are currently not on, nor are they included.”

There’s a strap across the hood for some reason. Refurbed, not restored.

(10/20/2016) Nick’s got this 3A for sale. It runs, but needs work.
“Jeep runs and has been driven routinely. Second gear just went out and I don’t want to fix. Engine is not original, but is the correct model. Upgraded to 12 volt system. Feel free to email with questions. Make me an offer, I’d like to sell it quickly. Thanks for looking.”

UPDATE: Price dropped to $1300.
Looks rough. No title.
“Selling one of my projects because I lost interest and ran out of money. Lots of parts have been replaced. (different head, fuel pump, different starter, gas tank and fuel lines, plugs wires distributer cap points and condenser etc. ) Comes with the original hard top and doors and all the spare parts that are with it. Open to trades but cash is king! Bill of sale included (I never had a title)”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8000.
Appears pretty original.
“Standard rebuilt motor fully restored with new leather interior”
Still needs some work.
“Selling my 1953 willys cj3a project. Only reason I’m selling is because I have too many projects. 4cyl engine partially installed. T90 transmission. Solid. Well worth the time and effort.”
http://maine.craigslist.org/cto/5883733478.html
UPDATE: Still Available.
(10/17/2016) I’m guessing this isn’t a 3A body. No drain holes and the fuel inlet is custom.
“New – wiring, seats, gas tank, body, headrests, carburetor, lights, prime
Original – hood, grill, tailgate, engine, transmission”
http://asheville.craigslist.org/cto/5878027616.html
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
It’s listed as a 1948. Rest assured, the tailgate is 100% (not sure what about it is 100%).
“Antique 1948 Willys Farm Jeep.
Complete Jeep with very little rust out anywhere. Very Straight Body! Tail Gate is 100%. Grill is super nice! Original Gauges and Instruments. This is not a beat up ol’ junker. Original Engine is apart and block is not there. Original Transmission and Transfer Case are there and are good. Jeep has a very neat spare tire carrier and rack. Original Hitch in place on rear.
Just a nice original Jeep for someone’s project!
Additionally, I have this Cute little Jeep Trailer available as a companion to the Jeep! This Trailer is Vintage 1940s and looks really good behind the little Jeep. The Trailer will Tilt and offers great Utility on the Farm for those small projects. Trailer is offered at $500 Dollars.”
