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.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5500.
This CJ-3B has some WOW factor to it. If it is as nice as this picture indicates, I’d say this is a good price. That sure looks like a Texaco insignia on the side. There’s likely a story that goes with this Jeep.
“For Sale: 1963 Jeep CJ3b with original drive train , has 7K original miles. Jeep runs very good and 4wd components work well. Jeep has the original Hoenig half top and doors. I have the original plow and frame, which are currently off the vehicle. Vehicle is registered in Connecticut. Serious inquiries only please”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $800
This might be a pretty good price.
“No title, flathead 4 cyl. Had running 3 years ago. No starter, windshield glass or bumper other than that it is complete. 800 obo. Would consider trade. Call Scott at 660-265-5741”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
There might be some value here. It’s got a PTO Winch. The body looks rough.
“Restoration potential. Body has usual rust spots but all could be restored. I was told the F134 has rebuild top. It runs but the gas tank was bad so it was started fro an external can. Standard 3-speed T90 shifts easily. Has PTO Ramsey winch. There is no top and the windshield goes onto another jeep, so thats not included. It has one seat as shown. The wheels are good and tires about a third left. There is an extra rolling frame that must go with the jeep. sorry but WILL NOT PART OUT & NO TRADES.”
UPDATE: This is/was listed as a CJ-3a, but is really a CJ-3B. Pics now listed also.
“I have a 1950 cj3a for sale or trade let me know what you have THE JEEP IS NOT RESTORED BUT DOES RUN AND DRIVE”

UPDATE: Still available
(11/17/09) This seems like a good price given the condition of the body and the lockers. Hmm … there aren’t any seats that I can see. I wonder if this is a more of a project.
“Selling my 1954 Willys Jeep. Has 4 inch lift, V6 with automatic, lockers front and back with lockouts front and back for towing, 5:38 gears, and power brakes. The body is very nice. Call Jim 920-864-7397 anytime after 2 p.m.”
