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 .
(07/18/2015) “Selling my 1954 CJ-3b to free up some garage space. Runs and drives, could use a carb rebuild. Has new battery, tail gate, tail lights, best top seats all the way around, freshly rebuilt transmission and transfer case, brand new 33×12.50×15 tires with new white rims. Has 52,xxx original miles and a clear title. Perfect beach cruiser.”
UPDATE:**SOLD** Was $3000. It’s been recently painted.
(02/07/2015) Still needs some work.
“1953 Willys CJ3B, rare / unique High Hood model jeep. Body is very good. Frame is very good. On road / off road hobby project. Don’t call expecting perfection, this is a work in progress. Have completed lot’s of work to it. 302 V-8 engine runs, & sounds good.
Three speed transmission, dual exhaust, headers. Lock-out hubs. Tires are not good, but nice aluminum rims. Have been completing shade-tree bodywork and paint. Military OD green at this point, looks good from 10′.
Overall, jeep needs little more TLC. No top, no doors. ( Period gas can and gas can holder can be purchased separately for $125.00). (Period Army footlocker for tool storage in back, can be purchased separately for $65.00). (9,500 lb. winch with wired remote can be purchased separately for $500.00).
New parts: brake shoes, wheel cylinders, some brake lines, thermostat, headlights,Optima Red Top battery, manual choke, Reese hitch receiver.
Racing seats installed. Rhino liner applied to interior. Floorboards cut out and replaced.
Buyer could take the jeep body off and replace it with an early Bronco body, which would probably double it’s value, then sell the jeep body or put it on a jeep frame / drive-train..”
(07/18/2015) Looks like a solid jeep with some useful updates.
“1953 Willys CJ3B. Lots to list but I’ll hit the highlights. There is a complete parts list to go with the jeep. Has a Ford 289 V8 from late 60s Mustang. Ford 3 speed transmission, dana 18 transfer-case to 5:38 gears in back and up front. Motor does NOT burn oil, sounds good, and runs strong. Has power steering, hydraulic clutch, upgrade master cylinder on firewall, hanging pedals on inside. Has 2 gas tanks… one under driver as normal, and one under rear floor with filler out the back. Lifted 3 inches. Please see pictures. Great jeep and fun to cruise town in, but will crawl anywhere you want to go. Well taken care of.
E-mail is best, I will be in and out of town, but will get back to you ASAP if you e-mail.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500. Rare CJ-3B Bobcat hood.
