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 looks like a real nice flattie.
“This has been a great Jeep but I’m moving on. 231 Buick v6, TH400, Power steering, Revolver shackles, Open knuckle Dana 30 front axle with an air locker, Dana 44 rear axle with Warn floating hubs and an air locker, 4:56 gears, Nice top and doors included. $4000 obo,”
This looks like a nice enough jeep that has been ‘restored’ nicely. However, the claim that this is all original except for tires and wheels is not true (12 volt system, fender flares, the rear lights, and I’m sure more).
“BODY OFF RESTORATION, 1951 CJ-3A. BOX, STOCK & BAREFOOT-EVERYTHING ON THIS JEEP EXCEPT THE HORN BUTTON & TIRES & WHEELS. EVERYTHING ELSE IS ORIGINAL 1951 EQUIPMENT, 2172 MILES SINCE COMPLETION, ENGINE & DRIVE LINE HAVE BEEN GONE THROUGH INCLUDING NEW CLUTCH, ALL NEW BRAKING SYSTEM, NEW EXHAUST, NEW LIGHTS, 12 VOLT CONVERSION, REMANUFACTURED STARTER …”
This looks like it could be a good price to me.
“1951 Willys jeep CJ3. Runs. 4 wheel drive. Has a 6 ft. plow. Original motor. Has rear seat, chains for all 4, transfer case and transmission with gears. Spare motor parts and assorted brake parts. Other misc. parts. Little rust under doors where step used to be. A classic in it own right. “
A reader named Mike is selling this CJ-3A. There have been a variety of updates to it and you can see Mike has invested some time maintaining and update this jeep.
“It’s a 1949 cj-2a.f-head motor, narrow trac differentials, t-90 tranns, dana 20 transfercase with adapter. Completely gone through. I put a wrench on just about every bolt. Too much to list. Would trade for cj-3b with pto’S and overdrive or $8000. 309-697-5910 or email mikester51@comcast.net ”
This looks like it could use some work on it.
“1949 Jeep Willy, All original, black Plates. All original, No modifications done to this Jeep. Flat fenders. Original black plates, runs and drives but needs gas tank, almost no rust, please the pictures and you are welcome to come and see it.”
It appears in pretty good shape.
“no title, bought to be used on our farm. many extras, new springs, tires, wheels, bearings, gauges, ect,ect. Email any questions.”
It looks like the top is melting.
“51 Willys CJ-3A. has a NY State regestration (no titles for cars that old) Converted to a 225 oddfire Buick V-6 used in CJ-5’s. Runs EXCELLENT. Lots of power. Starts right up. 3 speed manual from same CJ-5. Body is a aftermarket Willys body that is in great shape. the body only has slight surface rust and scraches. lots of new parts and tons of work done. Most of the conversion work is very well done, a few items need to be cleaned up (nothing bad). Needs finishing, eletric fan installed, seats bolted in and some electrical work. Top is not in great shape it’s only on to keep the inside dry. Call Steve at Lacey Williams Equipment from 8AM to 5PM.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3800.
This looks like a good little jeep. Not mentioned in the description is the fiberglass tilt front end. Unfortunately, the pics are small.
