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 .
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500
It seems to me the steps on this appear a little higher than they should be. I can’ tquite figure out how that is.
“1960 Willis Jeep. Was my father-n-laws. Been parked in garage for 3 years. Was running when he parked it but I’m sure it will need a little tlc now. It comes with a hard top & an extra trans.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
I love the battery tie down cord. It does beg the question, why isn’t the battery where it is supposed to be?
“Up for auction is a very Rare Vintage Willys Jeep CJ-3b in Restorable condition, I am not sure of the year and do not know anything about its Pedigree except for the ohv 4 Cyl motor purrs like a kitten, have been told the higher hoods were not available until the early 50’s, so possibly 1955 because of the 5’s in the vin#.

“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.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5500
(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.”
This might be a good price. It appears in good shape.
“Selling my military vehicles: 1954 Willys CJ-3B (commonly called the “High Hood”) = $3000″
