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: Price dropped to $2000
(10/25/2015) Still some work needed.

Nick’s selling this 3A with an original Blackhawk plow.
“For sale is a 1950 Willys CJ3A Jeep, I have a clear title in my name for this. It has an era-correct rare Blackhawk plow system. This was one of the better plow kits for the Jeep as it included a full undercarriage plow frame, which prevented the Jeep frame from getting bent. The frame is all solid without any rot. She starts right up and runs great, clean burning with no smoke. Tires are a little dry but I’ve driven it down the backroads without a problem. The body is pretty solid with some patch panels, and the rear floor is in unusually great shape. The only problems with the Jeep is the master cylinder has a leak which needs to be replaced for brakes ($50 online), and a 6” external oil line is leaking below the filter. I just haven’t had time to get to it. Clear glass windshield like new. Also this has a clean soft top to keep the weather off while plowing, and was used to plow a golf course in Michigan. Here’s a list of everything I’ve done to the Jeep:
-Planed head and gasket
-Complete carb rebuild
-Clutch, pressure plate, throwout bearing, pilot bushing
-Fuel pump/lines
-Brake line
-Spark plugs
-Wiring
-Ignition switch
-Refurbished starter
-Engine belts
-Radiator hose
With all the new parts it’s essentially a turn key running Jeep. The new clutch system shifts smooth, and does not pop out of 2nd gear; the tranny and transfercase is nice and quiet. All the fluids were clean when I changed them. This Jeep is ready for plowing this winter. Feel free to call/text me anytime. Would also trade for an M35A2 Deuce and a Half in good shape w/military tires & PTO winch, preferred non-whistler D turbo and rear canopy”
Appears to have a replacement body.

(11/02/2015) Sounds like it runs, but is still a project.
“Looking to sell today for 1500(absolute lowest price I will go), after 11/1/2015 the price goes up to $2000.
1952 Willys Cj3a in great mechanical condition, but needs a fair amount of body work. The jeep is a project that I started five years ago and just haven’t had the time to finish. Now my family is up to 5 and I need to build something larger(not looking for trade), so the jeep has to go.
The L-head engine was rebuilt about 2 years ago, all machine work done by Carl’s Machine Shop, in Pocatello, The transmission and transfer-case were rebuilt at the same time, all new internals in the transmission and mostly new parts(some parts were still good) in the transfer case. Carburetor is rebuilt, but the old oil bath air cleaner is gone, replaced by a k&n style foam air cleaner that works great. The jeep is not registered, but I do have a Title and bill of sale. If you are interested, text is the best way to get a hold of me for info or more pics. Thanks for your time, have a nice day.”

(08/05/2015) Runs.
“Selling a 1950 cj3a with enuff spares to build another jeep. 2 titles in hand! Parts include another frame/ body with a factory hardtop, 2 transfercases, a spare rearend end, a spare front end, another black body in rough shape, motor-tranny, a good radatior and many more spares.
The cj3a pictured runs and drives. I has no brakes and smokes badly due to needing the rings replaced. All 4×4 stuff works flawlessly, rebuilt starter, carbrator, fresh oil and filter, new fuel pump. Tires all hold air and have tons of tread, body has been started to be redone, and I have original seat frames and the missing fender along with all the other parts mentioned above.
Price is obo, may be willing to trade
Reason for sale is that I bought a nice 46 cj2a, so decided to sell the rest of my jeep stuff to make room for other projects.
Price is obo, want the stuff gone sooner than later”
Looks ready to roll.
“Runs drives have ton of money invested.possible trade for dually or motorhome…no junk!!! ”

No pics provided. Seems overpriced for something that needs work.
“Willy Jeep runs. Original parts. Does need work on fuel pumo and vacuum. 1952. I do have the original electrical harness for the electrical hook up. Asking 6000$ or best offer.”
