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: **SOLD** Was No Price.
What is that on the hood?
“I have a 1950 Military Jeep that I was going to restore but, I do not have time. It is not running at this time but, I have had it running in the past. I’m just asking for offers to be made. Please give me a call if you have any questions or if you would like to come and see it. 918-381-8293 / Johnny”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2995.
(09/20/2010) This seller has mower and snow plow attachments. Note the rear PTO. The tub and fenders are fiberglass.
“Good condition. Original flathead 4 cylinder starts and runs good. 3 speed transmission with hi-lo and FWD shifts good. Frame is solid with no rust. Tub and fenders are fiberglass. Hood, grill and windshield are steel. Has hydraulic lift on front and rare pto in the back. Included are a manual angle snow plow, and 59″ wide finish mower that hooks up to the rear pto, a steel half-cab which I purchased but never used, a light duty roll bar, original wheels and other parts. The speedo cable has been broken for as long as I have owned it so I have no idea how many miles are on it. The oil pressure and water temp gauges work. For the past 7 years or so, I have used this cool, old jeep to mow my lawn, plow my 100′ driveway and occasionally ride into town (5 miles) but now I have lost interest and purchased conventional mower and snowblower to replace it. Some work on the wiring for the headlights and turn signals will need to be done to make it street legal again. I will take $3500 for everything for the first person who shows up with the money and I’ll also consider offers for the jeep without the attachments.”
UPDATE I’m not shocked that this is still available
(08/20/2010) This poor jeep. I’m pretty sure this is a CJ-3A rather than a 1945 military jeep.
“here is a 1945 willys military jeep that was titled in 1951. back then military jeeps didn’t have titles. If you bought one back then it could be titled when registered. It does not run anymore ( motor is stuck ). The body is rusted bad but it has the original drivetrain . 500.00 obo”

“1949 Willys cj3a jeep TUB has been rebuilt little surface rust, new box tubing in place of old channel iron and a lot of new steel, tool box on passenger side still there and not rusted out $500 includes windshield frame, hood, grill, tailgate, and roll bar. I need it all gone. Jeep project that I don’t have time to finish. . There are a lot of little things that go with this jeep. If there is something you are looking for just ask and I will see if I have it.”
UPDATE: **SOLD**
For $500, this looks like a good deal. The grille looks like a pre-mid 1947 grille.
“1950 Willys Jeep CJ2A, needs lots of work and parts. Was running, but as of now is not. Have extra front bumper and leaf springs. Mileage unknown. Pickup only.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3000
(09/14/2010) Looks solid, from a distance.
“cj3a original very good condition o.d. green millitary tires.”

This looks like a good price. For $4000, you can have the jeep plus replacement body part”

Lots of rust here. I’m gonna guess this is a CJ-3A only based on the windshield (but that’s hardly conclusive).
“I have what “experts” have told me is a 1949 Willys CJ-2A. This thing is in rough shape. It was my grandfathers, one of those projects we would get to next summer, if you know what I mean. He left it to me and it’s sat in my garage for a couple years now. I lack the money and the experience to complete this project on my own, and I have finally brought myself to part with it. The engine starts, but won’t idle properly and the body is shot to hell. The tranny is solid as is the frame.The pictures show it without the top or the hood, both of which go with it. You can see the overall condition from the pictures below. There’s a lot of rust, all but one tire is dry rotted (though the spare looks passable). This is a fixer-upper, don’t expect to drive it out of here. The buyer must arrange for transportation.
Email me or text/call 740-317-7020. Leave a message with your number if you don’t get an answer. Feel free to ask any questions or request specific pics. $1000 OBO”
