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 .
It appears the body has been painted since it was put up for sale a couple months ago. This appears to be a good price.
“I was asking $2200/firm. This is the last time I will reduce the price. $1800/firm. If it does not sell for this price, I will not sell it. Calls only. No emails.”

For $2500, you can have the jeep and a 14′ car hauler. Plenty of cancer on this project.
“1951 Willys CJ3A with attached Snow Plow and a Hard Top. It does run, but smokes (hole in exhaust??). Currently, the brakes aren’t working, but I haven’t looked into the reason why. It might be as simple as no brake fluid. The jeep is brown in color (from paint), but does have some rust. The driver’s side floor is rusted through. The engine or carburetor has been modified (reason for the addition on hood), but I don’t know anything about it. $1300 OBO. I also have a car hauler that I’d be willing to sell with this jeep. Its a 14′ car hauler. $2500 for the CJ-3A & Trailer. I do have the titles for both the jeep and the trailer. Cash only. Sorry, I will not ship the jeep and I will not wire funds.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
“This auction is for a true barn find 1950 Willys CJ3A civilian Jeep with only 15,500 original miles. It is very original including the factory headlights with a July 26, 1950 date stamp. Only one works but I left them in for originality. All other component date codes correspond to date of manufacture. The Jeep began life on an Ohio farm and was used to run errands and transport items to town. At some point, ownership of the Jeep was passed on to the new owner of the farm. Eventually the Jeep was was removed from service and parked in the barn. The third owner inherited the Jeep in 2001 as his father in-law was aging and retiring from the Ohio farm….”
“Excellent running stock jeep with 5K miles on engine. Has roll bar, soft top, back seat, Warn winch and tow bar. A great off road machine.”
I don’t see a battery box in the cowl, but I do see a M-38 gauge panel. In general it looks very nice.
