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

This is worth a closer look. This is CJV3510609
“For sale is a 1950 Willys military jeep, model V35/U. It has been mechanically restored and just needs some light cosmetics. It cranks great, runs great, and stops straight. They just don’t come along any better.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7000.
Has had a few changes, but mostly stock.
“Desert Jeep. Mostly original. New electrical. Replaced generator with alternator. New drum brakes. About all that’s left to do is paint it. There are some minor chips and dings, but no major structural damage. I really enjoyed fixing it up and driving it around town, but I need room in the garage. The spare tire bracket is welded to the roll bar, so no stress on the back quarter panel. Yes, that’s a oogah horn in the photo; I still have the original horn. It just doesn’t sound as cool….”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $9800
Looks solid, but not everything works. For example, the parking brake is missing.
“Restored cj3a, daily driver, everything works. Willing to deliver. Clean title ready to go.”
Not drivetrain, but still may have value.
“I have a 1952 Willys CJ3A for sale. Has no motor, no trans, no transfer case. Body is straight. NO title. Asking $800. ”

(08/02/2014) No title.
“1952 Willy’s Jeep 4×4, 3-speed manual transmission, late 50’s GM V6 motor (runs great). This very COOL indestructible classic piece of machinery will make one heck of a yard truck or a great running restoration project. No title (lost) but if you want a title it can be done. “
UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was $1500.
LIke hitch points? This pure utility vehicle has five.
“This is an old willys. With a f head 132 4 cylinder engine. Purrs like a kitten, it has an Enest holmes tow truck winch running off a pto. About 50 feet of frayed cable. 5 hitch points. The winch is rated for 8000 lbs. I can tell you,it will pull more.its a work rig. I used it to pull trees to the landing. Very durable, and fun to putt with. Seeing if there is any interest ,no hurry to sell.Trades considered.”
No engine.
“Cj3a project….no engine, but has great chassis and body rebuilt with thicker metal in the floors. Has hood, and nice straight fenders. No rust on the chassis, springs are good.
If you have a running engine, this can be a great little jeep. The hard work is done, just needs finishing…”
