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 $1300
(03/30/2010) Based on these pics I’d say the body on this is less than ok.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2800.
It needs a little work.
“1951 CJ3A Willys Jeep. The Good: Complete, mostly original, flat-four. Also includes full 6-point cage, new tires, new shocks, new gas tank and lines, and new brake lines. The Issues: It has been sitting for a while and was in the middle of a 12-volt conversion that was never finished (no generator or alternator currently) when I bought it, wiring needs attention, turns over and starts, has a couple rust-out spots under the rear tail lights, quater size hole under the drivers seat in the pan, and rust in the rigger body braces under the body near the frame (where the wood was located). No pink slip.
I bought it as a project and have not had the time to finish it. It had been sitting for a while prior to me buying it… I massaged the cylinders with some Marvel oil, added some fresh gas to the carb and it cranked over and it tried to run. Sputtered, puttered, but ran. Since then, I have replaced all the gas lines, cleaned the new tank (it had old gas in it), added two inline filters, new plugs, new wires, and there it sat. Thus, I know it’s not frozen and only needs minor tweaking to run.”
This must be sold. Someone may get a good price on this. I can’t tell if it runs or not.
“as is, we’re moving and its to be sold for asking price or b/o needs to be sold please call (no e-mails) Art (408) 648-3943 or Tony (408) 836-7360”

It’s unclear how much work this needs.

(11/26/09) I love the starter switch wiring on this one; check out the pics.
“Great project. Recently purchased with high hopes but have realized I don’t have the time right now.”
UPDATE: Was $1500. **SOLD**
This looks like a project.
“I am interested in selling my 1950’s CJ3 Willys Jeep. It is fairly great shape for a 60 year old vehicle. Its been used for years as a farm truck here in AZ. It doesn’t run at the moment, bought it from my friend who said it needed the carburetor rebuilt and I haven’t got to that. motor spins freely (original 4 cyl) Has some rust in usual spots. the tool box under passenger seat is intact. Working tailgate. As far as i know it is all original. One rim is welded to hub so needs repair. This Jeep is in really great shape for its age and hard to find one not wasting away in a field. Wanted to make a hunting jeep/ toy out of it but no time.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6200
(10/27/09) It looks nice enough, though the windshield seems a little tilted back.
“1950 Jeep Willy, Rock Roller, off-road, 4×4, completely rust free, all new electrical, new 5.0 V-8, extra parts. Very reliable, orange color Very Light and cheaper than a Rhino. Will go anywhere: sand, dirt, mud. $6,200.00 obo. Will consider any reasonable offer. Don’t buy a rust bucket for $3,000-4,000 when you can own this rust free jeep with a V-8, ready to play!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6000.
This looks like a very nice road and trail Jeep. It has a solid fiberglass front that tilts forward.
“Nice jeep for summer driveing, Has full top and bikini top to. Newer 33 tires. winch. It has rebuilt th350 Auto. strong running 4.3lt power steering dana 30 disc brake front end. Fiberglass bobcat tub in realy good cond. 2in shackle lift. and 1in body lift.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $700
(12/27/09) “I bought this flat fender as a project without a title during the summer. The weather is nice enough to work on it and it is more project than I want. It ran, but had a knock. I pulled the pan and found the #3 rod bearing spun. Crank looks ok. I pulled the body to make getting to the engine easy. Rust and cracks all over. I don’t mind engine work, but am not motivated for body work. Except for a key start, it is pretty much original equiped for 1949. 12V coil too. I had it running before I took it apart, email me for a Youtube link to hear and see it run. Make me an offer and make it your project. No title.”
