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 .
(06/06/2014) 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.”
“Restored jeep cj3b. Almost everything newly redone. Original 4 cylinder engine runs great! Only driven in summer when weather and roads are good. $7,000. I have the original hardtop that it came with all doors etc., but those have not been redone”
“I have a pair of (2) Willys Jeep CJ3B’s. I have clear MN titles for both of them including up to date license plates on both of them. One runs and drives nice, has the F head 4 cylinder motor that purrs like a kitten. 3 speed manual transmission shifts nice and both high and low four wheel drive works nice. I installed a brand new brake master cylinder and new brake lines last Fall. Wheel cylinders should be replaced. Changed oil and filter and gear lube in both front and rear differentials as well as transmission and transfer case gear lube. Tires all hold air. Body is rough but repairable. Rear crossmember will need to be replaced. Frame appears to be solid. Other jeep has the Buick Dauntless V6 motor that does fire on spray gas but I have not had time to get it running. This motor has Offenhauser intake manifold with 4 barrel carb and exhaust headers. Frame is really nice. Body has had some patch work done at one time but is in much better shape then body on first jeep. I am asking $3200 for a package deal. I prefer to sell them as a pair and I feel the buyer would be happy to get them as a pair to build one nice Jeep. Tires are in good shape on number 2 Jeep.”
“1953 CJ3B project. 350 Chevy SB. New hubs and springs. 410 gearing. Started project years ago and lost interest. Extra trans, transfer, axles and misc parts. Have title.”
Don noted that this was for sale in March and included a plow. The plow has been removed and now the jeep is up for sale again.
This has a newer motor. It runs and drives.
“1953 Willys Jeep CJ3B Has 2.3L Ford 4cyl engine swap. Well done swap, runs smooth and is very reliable. Has new plugs, wires, air and oil filters. Engine is mated to the stock 3spd manual tranny and transfer case. Power steering was added as well as a tilt steering column. 4wd works very well and has brand new lockouts.
The entire frame has been boxed and is extremely solid. Entire chassis was painted when disassembled. Has new front and rear leafsprings and hardware. This Jeep is very tight and goes down the road straight. Tires are in excellent shape.
All the gauges work as well as the high/low beam headlights and rear turn signals/brake lights. Has a functioning heater as well as a working windshield wiper
