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 .

“1955 Jeep! Restoration Project! Has engine and trans (may run) (all mechanical parts seem to be intact.
Asking $700.00. Delivery can be arranged with in this area. Seems to be access to many parts and items needed for restoration via the internet! ”
“This original flatfender Jeep is ready for immediate off-road use or perfect for a restoration project. The engine (F134, 4-cylinder) has been rebuilt and runs well. Almost everything on it is in working order. Drivetrain (Engine, transmission, transfer case, axles, etc) is completely original and all numbers match. Transmission and transfer case are fully functional. Off-road tires (31 x 10.50) are in great condition.
This Willys came with the optional super-low gearing in the differentials (5.38 : 1). So it’s got plenty of torque to climb up and over all sorts of stuff. It comes with a service manual, bikini top, and a few other accessories. For more details or questions, call Mike at 619-459-5929.”

(01/22/2011) A reader named Luke asked me to post his CJ-3B that was originally purchased by the Army. I double checked to make sure this wasn’t a M-606 and the seller assured me that it was a CJ-3B and notes that “The data tag is marked SN 62151, which matches the last 5 digits of the VIN. All data tags are included in the sale.” You can contact the seller through the craigslist ad or contact me and I’ll provide his contact info.
“For your consideration is a 1960 CJ3B, which was purchased under contract from Willys by the Army. It has the data tag, with serial number matching the underhood data tag to confirm this. Early in the life of the jeep, it was modified with two fuel tanks, either by the factory, or by the Army.
The engine, transmission, transfer case, and differentials are all in excellent operational condition. There is no smoke produced by the engine when running, and little to no noise when driving.
The brakes are rebuild and work well, the paint was applied by me. There is some rust, but it’s very typical of older jeeps, and does not harm the jeep. The jeep is currently registered as a Maryland Historic Vehicle.”
Well, if the seller spent more time on eWillys, he would see more original, less unlatered CJ-3Bs! That aside, Rich spotted this solid looking flattie that could use some light body work.
“This is the most original and unaltered CJ3B I have ever seen. We bought it to laser scan and Faro Arm track the body, to create a digital model for a special project. So now that we are done, I am ready to sell this little vintage patina jewel to the next guy to enjoy. It has sat in our warehouse for the last year, doing nothing. We inspected and serviced it lightly. You may want to comb through it before a major outing. We made sure it stops, steers and runs well. It is 100% original. Engine is super smooth, and super simple. 35K original miles. Original paint and markings, even the original wood windshield frame perches are still there! No rust, a few bumps and bruises, but an exceptional virgin CJ. Thanks for looking! JW

This has a variety of mods including Hudson steering and looks nice. However, I disagree that these are “selling for $15,000 – $30,000 in many auctions and online”.
