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 $6000
This seller claims this CJ-3A has an aluminum body. These are certainly rare.
“Willey’s Jeep, 350 V-8, all aluminum body, 2″ Rancho lift, new tires and rims(951) 766-7223”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3800.
This CJ appears in very good condition.
“1950 Willys Jeep 4×4 This jeep has lots of new parts. We redone it 4 years ago. It has a 4cyl Ford engine, it starts and runs good”
UPDATE: More pics. Still Available
Only one pic, but it looks in pretty good shape from the one pic.

Here’s a flattie crawler out of Georgia.
“1953 Willys CJ3A Jeep. Lots of custom work done to it. I got it in a trade a couple of years ago and haven’t done much with it since. 225 Buick odd-fire V6, rebuilt 3 speed transmission, Spicer 18 transfer case. Wagoneer Dana 44’s front and rear w/5.38:1 gears and full spools, high steer arms up front with high steering. USA6x6 H1 beadlocks w/rubber runflats & 36×12.50 Super Swamper TSL-SX’s with 75-90% tread remaining…. The pictures also show a winch & hilift jack, but they are both gone. Some nice person out there stole them”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000
This might not be a bad price.
“1951 willys jeep, was running a year ago needs carb cleaned and fuel lines and tank cleaned. supersonic L head engine original motor. Top needs to be cleaned and is missing strip that hooks it to the top of the windsheild can get from bestop maybe 15 to 20 dollars. Does not need much to have running. Also has lock out hubs, three speed trans, two stick transfer case. Would make great project restore or rock crawler”
UPDATE: Was $4000. **SOLD**
This looks like a real nice flattie.

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 …”
UPDATE: Purchased by an ewillys reader. He notes it’s in great shape and was a good price. It’s now home in Montana.
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 ”
