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 .
“4cyl over head vavle engine. dis-engaging front hubs (lock-out). Change over 12 volt system. Org jeep seats. runs – needs tlc”
This looks like a very good deal considering the quality of trailer.
“1959 Model CJ-3B running hunting jeep with custom trailer and winch; new jeep tires and spare; heavy roll bar with horizontal gun racks; body is in good condition and jeep runs; custom trailer is tandem axle with ramps, spare battery pocket and lights; original hurricane engine with electric fuel pump added”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3000
This CJ-3B includes an overdrive. This might be a pretty good price given the work that has been done.
“
Rebuilt engine, transmission and transfer case along with new clutch and resurfaced flywheel ~1000 miles. Rebuilt Overdrive unit, less than 100 miles. The engine was sleeved back to standard and compression measures at high specification (125psi). It has an electronic ignition and a high torque starter. Three point harness on front seats and a rear seat (not mounted) to go with it. Full roll cage. Upgraded brakes, 11″ drums front and rear as well as dual reservoir master cylinder. Runs great and has a 12v electrical system.”
It’s got what appears to be a CJ-3A or 2A grille that has been modified into a CJ-3B grille.
It’s a running CJ-3B for only $1200. It’s worth a look.
“Great hunting vehicle. Has 8000lb ramsey winch, runs good needs a little tuning.”
It appears this frankenstinien CJ-3B ran into an old style apartment radiator.
“I have a willys jeep for sale, I am guessing it’s about a ’52, it comes with a hard-top, it has been converted to a Ford 6 cylinder with 12 volt and HEI ignition”
“All original with F head motor and spare. Ran a few years ago. Engine smoked but ran good. Comes with top and doors. Jeep is very complete and clean, with little surface rust.”
This looks like a nice CJ-3B, but the pics aren’t too close up.
“1953 CJ3B High Hood in great shape. Has 302 Ford engine that runs good. Check out the photos and that pretty well shows the condition this rig is in. 3Bs in good condition are getting tough to find.”
UPDATE: Was on eBay. **SOLD**
Ed sent me the link to his ebay listing and I’m glad he did. “Woodchuck” is a rare beauty!
“Purchased by Dorothy Owens for her summer camp in Wardsboro, Vermont on June 26, 1963 from Willys Jeep dealer E.J. Roberts & Son, Inc. of Jacksonville, Vermont (see sale receipt image below), this historic 1963 CJ3B is as close to true showroom original stock condition as likely almost any vintage Jeep existing. “Woodchuck”, as the 3B is now affectionately known, has been extensively documented, photographed and published (more on that below). Woodchuck, with only 9400 miles (continuously garaged since new and never driven in winter), is in its original Treebark Brown Poly paint (paint code 231) and original green upholstery (trim code 208) on the seats and tailgate chains.”
“1954 Willy’s jeep,4×4,less then 1000 miles on new 302 ford engine,full roll cage,needs some work, run’s good. $2500 or best offer”
“1960 Willys Jeep C J 3-B, four cylinder engine. Runs and drives great, 4 X 4. GREAT SHAPE! New gas tank, new tires. The jeep has the original 1/2 hard top on it. It needs a rust panel or two, but still is in good shape. The frame is great, brakes are good, lights work, drives great. Call (859) 893-4346 anytime except on Wed. 7:00pm – 9:00pm.; Sun. 10:00am – 12:00pm”
“Mid to late 70’s 302 Mustang motor, high-hood, new paint, new 12v electric wiring throughout, new tires, new exhaust, new shocks, reproduction tailgate, new steering box, Subaru seats, bikini top, automatic transmission, includes original white vinyl enclosed cab with zipper windows. Needs new radiator. Sold strictly AS-IS. Runs fine, drivable. “
This appears in good shape.
“The Universal Jeep CJ3B was introduced as a 1953 Model by Willys-Overland, the company which had produced some 360,000 Jeeps during World War 2, and almost as many civilian Jeeps (CJ”s) in the seven years since the war. This particular one is a 1954 Model in very good original condition with the original F-head “Hurricane” 4 cylinder engine. …. This Jeep in all original except for the roll bar and wheels. It has never been modified, still has 6 volt system, original seats etc. and is very solid, no rust holes of any size. Runs and drives great with new tune up, new battery, new rebuilt brake master cylinder and new windshield.. This is a very desirable collectors item that is an easy restoration or usable as it is in original condition. Jeep was dark green from factory but was painted white years ago. Jeep is being sold with clear Montana title. Other Jeeps and cars for sale alpinemotors.org ”
