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 .
Craig shared this Haggerty video that covers a stainless-bodied jeep that’s been transformed into an electric vehicle. It’s a real nice build. The “battery” that’s been placed in the jerry can holder is pretty clever.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6500.
(03/07/2020) It’s a project. Has curved rather than flat fenders.
“For sale rare 1973 stainless steal jeep style body . Needs to be fully re-stored (was bought for that purpose) Has title to the jeep Asking 6,500.00 or 6,000 Cash Only”
This has been in storage for a couple decades and hasn’t been started since. The price is listed as $10,800, but the seller is taking bids (or maybe this is listed on eBay?).

UPDATE: ****SOLD**** Was $3500.
(07/29/2020) It doesn’t appear this has been used.
“This is a somewhat slightly stretched imitation of a CJ3-A body in stainless steel. I say CJ3A because it is flat fender and low flat hood with a one piece windshield, but no vent. I looks to me like it would fit best on a CJ-7 frame.
There is NO title of any kind, there is no VIN, never has been.
There is a tub with half doors, fenders, hood, windshield frame, door handles, a “for looks only” roll bar, rear bumper things, all stainless steel, and black vinyl top with hardware. The grill in the picture is a normal CJ2-A grill and in very good shape, but not stainless steel. There is a stainless steel grill but it is an insult to jeep and whoever made the rest of the body components.
I talked with a man that told me a Texas company imported, from the Philippines, nine of these bodies sometime around 2010 and used three of them , for what he had no idea. He bought the remaining six. He resold them, He thinks that this is one of the six he resold.
The dimensions in the drawing are as close as I can get.
Ask any questions.
I am not moving very far from the listed price.”
Bill also shared this article about a stainless flat fender jeep that was modified into an electric vehicle.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1700.
(02/16/2021) This package could be a good price if the stainless body is in good shape.
“Postal jeep right hand drive no engine and transmission. No front end hood, grille and fenders. I have a complete stainless steel body parts for replacement that need to put it together.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4500.
“Stainless steel Willys Jeep roller no motor no trans … (from previous ad: it has a supper 14 rear end with leaf springs and 44 up front on coil over it a cj Frame that is boxed).”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(07/07/2020) This is a good price.

Here’s what it looks like when was together.
This is how the chassis looks:
“Hi I have stainless steel CJ3A body for sale complete including windshield and Omni wipers installed with 12v wiring included. I believe I bought Del@OMC last CJ3A from him in Oregon a few years ago before he passed away (rip).
Del owned the factory in the Philippines where they were made and exported to U.S. Great construction his bodies will probably out-last you and I!:) I built it for a EV prototype for a classics EV startup but all future models will use aluminum body out of Canada BC (stretched ~ 1 foot for more legroom up front) so no longer need this body. It’s just been a demo vehicle max 50 miles on it it’s like new see pics (does has vinyl EV stickers on hood those should heat gun off I haven’t bothered yet don’t have the time))”
