About eWillys
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.
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 .
(06/02/2014) It runs and has a rear PTO, but needs some work.
“Up for auction is a 1953 Willys CJ3B with rear pto “as is”. This Jeep runs but currently needs restoration. The engine starts runs but does need final restoration. The transmission, pto, and 4wd work as they should. The brake system will need a new master cylinder. The body of the Jeep is in good solid condition for it age and has little rust and minor dents. The frame is in real nice condition and has not been welded or repaired. The electrical system has been converted to 12 volt. This Jeep will make a nice restoration project .
“Willys Jeep CJ3B with a retro fitted V8. Runs when put together. Was in the processes of an overhaul and don’t have time to finish it. Also have $600 of yellow car paint that I would throw in if you want.”
“I am selling my 1956 willys cj3b. It is fairly straight for a willys it has rust but not as bad as most. The majority if the rust is in the floor pans. It has a a hardtop which is very rare to find for a willys I do not have the doors for the hardtop. The hardtop is in very good condition. The motor is not locked up I messed with it earlier this year an had it running on starting fluid. I do not have a title for it because it came from kansas but u can give a bill if sale. I am asking 1200.00 obo.”
“This Jeep has a V8 high compression 302 engine. It has a clear title and good tires. It has a tow bar. It is a project and needs work. It.has lots of power.”
“Never hought I would do this but my 1953 Willys Jeep CJ-3B is for sale. Solid original Jeep from central Florida, not the rusted out junk you usually see. I bought this when I lived in FL in 1991 and drove it all over there. In fact, the in-plant parking sticker from Tropicana is still on the front bumper. Drove it for 2 or three years before moving north again and have not driven it on the road since, just around my last two places in the woods. It has an Indiana title. Still has the 6-volt system and original gauges, etc. The front seats were re-upholstered in a dark burgundy very high quality vinyl with new foam. I still have the very rare rear seat in the original color but can direct you to the place that did the front seats. It needs some detail things taken care of but nothing major and it is not some POS rat trap. Just things like the tail light lens is broken, speedo cable broke three or four years ago when I went out in the bad ice storm in front of the house to help get cars over the hill, wiper is not connected and stuff like that. This was the first year for the engine, which is the F Head with the overhead valves on the intake and in block exhaust valves. I believe it was used in the CJ5 until 1965. Parts are not a problem. “
(06/06/2014) It runs and drives. Not too far from me.
“1953 Willy’s. Has all the original parts. The original, F head 134 motor has been rebuilt and runs good. All original drivetrain. IT RUNS AND DRIVES !!! Needs paint but, you can still see the original traces of the air force blue. Perfect for a restoration into a ww2/korea army jeep. Ihave all the original parts that have been replaced in the photos.”
