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 .
This appears to be a collection of parts.

“This is a barn yard find. Jeep is a 1953 Willy’s. Factory paint blue with white pin stripes . Everything is there, original motor, it does look like someone rewired and converted to 12 volt system but i am not for sure.
I assume it wouldnt take much if anything to get running. original seats, body is pretty solid, slight damage to rear drivers tub but nothing major. Locking front hubs, looks like a Dana 44 rear. I don’t have the keys. Clean title. 1600.00 cash l”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5,500
I’d check the paint on this.
“1952 Willy’s CJ3A, converted to Chevy 350 V-8, Turbo 350 automatic, two stick transfer case. Looks and drives good. New brake master cylinder. New front and rear seats with seat belts.”
The seller is looking to sell this to someone who will properly restore it.
“Due to moving back to Germany i am offering my DJ3A (1963 with title) and a CJ3A chassis with drive train. I really want to give it to the right person. I have both units here in Ft Lauderdale and have to move them quick. About 1500.00 for both but any offer is welcome. The trailer is brand new and can be bought for 2K as well. Engines turn over, DJ3A needs suspension, brakes, floor, tub, fender and door restore as well as upholstery. Not a quick fix. But one of few!”

I’ve included only part of the description. The seller’s description is extensive.
“This is a 1951 CJ3A Willys jeep that belonged to a SE Georgia Cattle farmer and hasn’t ever been in salty roads of colder areas. This vehicle was one of 3 jeeps that belonged to person and had nice weather proof shelter over head appeared not to have been abused or trashed” and limited use because of multiple “toys. This is not a patch plate or bondo special as some of these older Willys on ebay appear to be and even the under pasenger seat utility box is solid(rare). The wind shield frame is very solid as well and this is recurring problem on Willys exposed to elements as well as floor pans.The paint is recent and is enamel OD green and only pic with dog is pre new paint that jeep is currently….”

This looks nice.

It runs, but is a bit odd. The body might be from a DJ.

(02/16/2012) This has a cracked block, but comes with extra parts and an engine.
“1951 Willys Jeep ready to restore. Still ran when parked however has a cracked block. Comes with engine from 1952 willys ran when pulled. Lots of extra parts; gasket kit, carboraters; etc. Have been gathering parts to restore it but ran out of time and money. Good project for someone who wants an original Willys.”
