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 .
(06/30/2010) There’s been some body work done to this jeep. For example, it appears there is diamond plating around the gas inlet.
“UP FOR AUCTION, 1953 CJ 3B Willys Jeep, runs good, stock overhead cam 4 cyl, original motor. New soft top, new windshield, lift kit with oversized tires. All gauges work, automatic windhield wipers, new fuel tank.Body straight paint is nice, no rust. Have door for it but they do not match the paint.”
“This is a 1959 Willys CJ3B. I don’t know the history it was a trade for some work. The jeep belongs to a friend of mine this is all he knows about this vehicle. The previous owner purchased the jeep in 1968 and had the body work done and the engine rebuilt at some time. The jeep runs fine and everything works! 4 wheel drive hi and low. I have not checked out the wench to see if it works but will check it out and update you as to my findings. The jeep is located in Hollister CA and needs to be picked up or driven home from here.”
“1963 CJ3B Willys Jeep. This is a 2 owner jeep. It was stored in a garage from 1983 until 6 months ago. It has had a face lift and full tune up and now runs and looks great. 35,000 original miles. The jeep was painted in gloss army desert tan and has carthart custom seats. The top and doors are like new and is ready for any parade, or just plain summer fun. Best Offer will take the Jeep. 443-318-4784”
The mileage seems a bit low. Also, this VIN doesn’t seem correct.
“Mileage: 8,600 – Body Style: SUV – Exterior Color: Green – Interior Color: Black – VIN: 4J34149 – Engine: 4 Cylinders – Transmission: Manual – Drivetrain: 4WD – Doors: 2
Selling Points: Great truck to drive to the local ice house!Driven very little last 8 years. In last 4-5 years major portions of the vehicle rebuilt or replaced:-Electrical system reworked-Brake system rebuilt/replaced-Fuel pump, fuel tank, fuel lines replaced. (Now has electric fuel pump).No A/C, but the windsheild can be lowered on those hot Texas days. This has been a great vehicle, but I drive it very little and it should be in a home where it is used.
Condition: It runs better now than it has in years due to the major fuel system and brake system work that has been done. However, the paint is faded and peeling. The tires will need to be replaced soon.”
HOG spotted this one. I looked back in my posts for this CJ-3B, but it doesn’t appear to be there. I’m sure it’s all good, but just in case … the seller buys the jeep for the dad from cali and now is selling for the mom, except the title was never transferred from cali, so wouldn’t the seller actually be selling it for himself as the signer on the old title? Finally, the serial number of #4J37357 is incorrect, so I’d investigate that as well.
“I bought this Jeep for my Dad back in March 2010…He has since past away and I have no need of another Jeep, So I am selling this for my Mom. It is a 1954 Willys CJ3B that has had some modifications done to it over the years…. There is nothing wrong with the jeep it runs and drives fine…..Someone has taken chrome diamond plate and made a dash for it with all the gagues and added a Tachometer……It has a Tow bar and high lift jack that come with it……..If you are going to drive it on the highway the tires will need to be balanced and at some point it will need tires…The motor is a 260 Ford V8 with dual exhaust and starts and runs great…..Brakes all work good…..Transmission and overdrive shift fine…..All gauges work…Has a complete soft top with doors and a roll bar…… Seats are not torn but do not match in color…..The front end and steering box are out of a later mdel Jeep and all the 4 wheel drive works fine….It has two gas tanks,but only one is hooked up….There is no rust on the Jeep the floors panels are solid and rust free has a few minor digs in the hood and body, but nothig major……Tail gate has been replaced with solid panel…..Someone has added leafs to the spring and a set of Air shocks in the rear……I have a low reserve on this Jeep in order to sell quickly,it’s worth much more than the reserve price….It has a clear transferable California title………Ask questions before bidding…Sold as is…I can store for 6 months with payment made in full…. If you are serious about it I can e-mail more pictures.”
