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 .

“I have a 53 willys flat fender with the original 4 cyl has a winch on the front also outer body is fair floors have been plated not a good job also have a 59 willys cj for parts as frame os bad same tranny and motor and divetrain”
I believe this runs. It has a military passenger fender. It’s got a nice cage. And it has an overdrive. It’s worth a look for sure. Not a great description.
“Run 3speed”

(10/16/2013) I tried to get some pics of the 3B body, but didn’t have any luck. That sounds like the most interesting part.

Runs and drives. Looks like the driver’s side is a little soft.
“or sale military green style Willy’s CJ-3B jeep. Brand new tires have been put on and old tires are available if desired. 4WD is operational, perfect for a restoration project but also good functionality.”

The trunk is an interesting feature.
“There is nothing more rugged and endearing than a Willys Jeep. . .especially one from the early 1950s with some patina. This 1953 Willys CJ3B is almost completely original and has acquired some battle scars over the years. Nothing serious. . .just enough to add some character. If you’re into off-roading or just want a beast to drive around, this Willys with a factory Hardtop, just may be the ticket for you. I know I have had a blast with it over the past 18 years cruising around my property high in the Colorado Rockies. This CJ3B is listed with a starting bid of $1,000 and a reserve well below what it is worth.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8000
4WD doesn’t operate. It’s listed as a M-38A1.
“1952 Willys M38A1 military jeep. Excellent condition. Perfect for shows, parades, and display. New fuel pump, new starter. Includes top canvas and side curtains. 4-wheel drive does not operate.”
