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: Price dropped to $9000.

“One day in 2013, I was talking with a buddy and he asked if I was interested in a Willys Jeep and since I was thinking about a “project” car, I said yes. Well, I got this little gem on a farm in the Hood River Valley! I call it Taz Willy and he has won several trophies at car shows! But, as happens with time, I have purchased a travel trailer and will be doing more traveling so I decided to give someone else the opportunity to have fun with Taz.
Even though he was used in the orchard as a spraying machine, and stored for quite a while, he was in good shape and all the dried mud on his underside protected him from rusting! I stripped him down to his frame and painted it with frame paint to continue his protection.
The engine has been rebuilt by Portland Engine Rebuild using the original f-head engine block. It is the 4 cylinder stock engine. Engine has 925 miles – all road miles.
The transmission is the original– 3-speed with compound low. This required only replacement of fluid. I works good.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1200.
“Cj3b with hardtop for parts or restore. No motor or radiator but most other is there. No good title. One I have is messed up.
Pics soon”
UPDATE: Status Unknown. Was $15,000.
(03/06/2021) This 3B looks solid. It has some unmarked Watson style Hubs (possibly bought through Sears).
“53B Willys CJ mechanically and cosmetically restored, original engine and drive train with 12volt system, 20 year service record, stored in temperature and humidity controlled garage. Jeep is in showroom condition. Runs great and will pass inspection. Comes with spare tire and tow bar.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $500.
Daryl has this 3B with the windshield for an early top (which I believe was produced by Worman).
“Cool old Jeep with factory hardtop windshield.
No top.
What you see is what you get.
No Title.
Can load for you.”
Definitely a later model, but it lacks the fresh intake hole on the cowl.

“1964 willys Jeep was running when I parked it. Fresh gas and a battery and she will fire right up. Need brakes will run and drive but just no brakes. Asking $5500 but am a little bit negotiable and would consider a trade”
Not a whole lot of value here.

“Body panels about gone, Maybe could use a few. front and rear differentials look ok. Hood a easy fix. Have good ohio title. Vin number and title match. cj3b one leaf of front spring busted.”
Has a few updates, but looks mostly stock. There may be some rust on the driver’s side near the step.

“Rare 1954 Willy’s CJ3B Jeep for sale. High hood. Original hurricane engine. Very few miles since a complete restoration except for paint and body. Does have a new hood and tailgate. Over $6,500 in parts alone used. We have a list of all parts used. $8,500 OBO.”
Looks like a nice build. I’m wondering if the top was designed for a CJ-5 originally? I haven’t seen a top adapter in the front quite like this one.

“1959 Willy’s Jeep Flat Head 4 cylinder Hard Top $12,000”
The body looks solid.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1170276500092258
“Complete rolling chassis with axles, brakes, and Rancho suspension. No engine, trans, or T/case. Some rust under passenger seat compartment and front fender braces. Some extra parts available. No title. I can provide you a bill of sale for parts. $1,500 obo.”
Not sure how much value is here.

“Selling my “mismatch” jeep. It’s a fiberglass cj3b tub sitting on a cj3a frame. The frame is real nice condition and the tub is rust free! Both fenders are good condition. Hood/grill not perfect but definitely usable. No engine/trans. Asking $1200 or best offer.
This appears to be a 1946 chassis with a CJ-3B replacement body. I’m not sure why the odd grille was made/used.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/927129478031738
“1946 Jeep Willy CJ. The frame is original, engine has been replaced with an early 50’s flathead Ford V-8. Takes leaded fuel. 3-speed manual transmission. Has an after market heater. Odometer has been replaced; new odometer reads 489 miles. Prior mileage unknown. It runs and is in good condition.”
