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 .
Blaine spotted this great article on ‘hunting’ uranium in Utah. I’m sure there were many jeep used to explore southern Utah while chasing uranium, but finding pictures hasn’t been easy. This article written by Brett Huelen and published in the Canyon County Zephyr contains several jeep photos, along with some great stories from his time living in Southern Utah.

This is a nice looking CJ-3A. It does need a new clutch.

“I have a classic Willys Jeep that I’m listing strictly because I need Christmas money and can’t afford the latest service needed on the Jeep. So, right away I should say that the Jeep does need to have the clutch done. Just started acting up the other day while I was driving it around. Really the only reason I’m testing the waters. THIS IS A VERY NICE JEEP. LOOKS BETTER THAN ALOT OF LATER MODELS
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1200.
Hard to say how much value is here.

Here’s a nice looking CJ-3A that starts at a fair price.
“Hello, up for auction is my 1953 Willys CJ3A. This Jeep is an excellent example of “survivor” and is mostly original. I am the 3rd owner of this Willys. I purchased it from the 2nd owner in 2012. He owned the Jeep from 1962 to 2012. I was told the Willys was owned by the State of Maryland from 1952 to 1962 but I have no documentation of this. The mileage currently shows as 51017 and is the original mileage. The Willys is a 1953 according serial number but is titled as a 1952, this is very common. The build date falls in November of ’52, often new vehicles were titled as the year they were sold in. The title is clear and in my name. The Jeep is mostly unmolested other than a repaint some years back by the 2nd owner. The paint is close to the original color. There is rust but the body is very solid. Sections of the hat channels, body sides where the floor meet them, and the rear panels are the worst of the rust. The floors and tool box botom are remarkably solid. If properly cared for the body will last for many years. The frame is solid and shows no cracking. This Jeep is mechanically sound and very reliable. The Jeep has a set of dealer installed vintage lock out hubs, an original grill screen and a factory accessory Pintle Hook. Also included with the Willys is the Witco black vinyl soft top. I have put roughly 4000 miles on it while I have owned it. I have gone through the Willys and serviced everything.
This could make a cute fugly jeep with just a few changes.
“1950 Willys Jeep cj3a. Very poor body but nice frame, complete drivetrain, good engine, and transmission just needs a new body. It is a great restoration project. It’s ugly but it’s a part of our history and has a clean title. I will deliver it on my trailer. It is ready for a new home! This is a real barn find.
