About eWillys
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.
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 .

This doesn’t run and the rear portion of the body isn’t original (or has been modified).
“Vintage 1949 Jeep Willys CJ3A; 2 door, hard top coupe; 6 volt, 4 cylinder engine, dual transmission.
Selling for $2500 OBO.
Bought this Jeep intending to fix it up, but never found the time. Everything on it is all original. The hard top feature is quite unique for Jeep Willys. The engine did run on last start up, but has not been maintained or started for several years- it does not currently run, but should start again with a small amount of work.
This would be a great restoration project for someone to take on, but it will require some time. Feel free to stop by and take a look. It is located about 6 miles northwest of Wausau, WI.
As it does not currently run, the buyer will need to make arrangements to haul or tow it.
Call 715-675-7576 for inquiries or to view. Do not respond via email.”
“Better than a four wheeler, cheaper that a side by side. Needs a windshield and a battery. Comes with a new soft top. Great for hunting season or beer runs. It was my grandpas but I need the money. Pretty original, no real rust to speak of. Make an offer.”
“1950 Jeep Willys, 4 speed, 4×4, been sitting about 2 years. Ran great when parked. Extra motor
Tires are good. Clear Title in hand for quick sell. Priced well below value. See Photos
Email with any questions.”
Either the body is fiberglass or the steps have been modified.

(07/03/2013) Apparently, Ward Canaday owned this jeep. It’s got some body rust issues.
“1951 cj3a. This Jeep was owned by Ward Canaday who was president of Willys Overland and also considered father of the Jeep. It was used on his Ottawa Hills estate as a maintenance vehicle.
That said, its in pretty decent shape for being 60 years old.
The jeep had been sitting for 25 years or so and the engine was stuck. Replaced all exhaust valves, and ground intakes. Pulled pistons and cleaned. Replaced cyl head. Rebuilt carb. New master and all wheel cyls. Runs good. Odometer shows under 2000 miles, but speedo cable was broke. True miles unknown, but I doubt it has a whole lot.
Windshield is cracked, gas gauge doesn’t work, steering box is kind of sloppy, body does have some rust.
I have done the repair work on this jeep and am listing it for the owner. I can answer any questions and show the vehicle. It does have a title and also owner has a copy of old title showing it belonging to Canaday’s estate.”
