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 .
Looks in good shape based on the one pic.

“1949. Willys Wagon. Complete drivetrain and chassis rebuild 300 miles ago. Have all the paperwork for work completed. Body and paint in fair condition. Interior is nice and clean. Runs and drives great. For sale or trade.”
Appears in good shape. It’s missing the front frame horns (possibly 3A frame). The key isn’t in the standard place, so it’s possible the body isn’t original.

“This is a real nice piece of history. Body and interior are in excellent condition. Older restoration. Purchased from a large estate. Runs and drives great. Starts at the turn of the key. This is a rare find. Lentzusedvehicles.com”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000.
Given it runs and has a plow, this might be worth a look.
“Vintage Willys Jeep with plow. Good runner. No brakes.”
This has a reproduction body, so it’s probably in pretty good shape. Doesn’t run at the moment.

“This is a perfect candidate to ride around in parades, back woods, or to cruise to your local car shows with. There’s some minor work that needs to be done (mainly the windshield, engine only cranks), but seeing that this vehicle is nearly 75 years old, this can all be fixed by a mechanic or body shop.
We hate to let it go, but we need the space …. Make an offer that’s hard to turn down.”
Body has at least one patch on the driver’s side.

“For sale 1953 Willys Jeep CJ 3A. Runs great lots of new parts including brakes distributor tires and wheels plugs wires starter seats gauges gas tank and much more. Rebuilt transmission Asking 6500.”
Looks like something has been added under the hood near the driver’s side headlight that keeps the hood from closing all the way.

“1949 CJ 3A jeep with top, heater, and new gas tank”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1250.
Not sure how much value is here, but sure seems like there could be some value here.
“No motor. Has title. Transmission and transfer case are not locked up”
Supposed to have a rear PTO, but I don’t see it on the back? It’s got an L-head rather than an f-head.

“54 Willy’s CJ 3b, 4 cup flathead engine. Less then 50 miles on overhaul. New brake pads and master cylinder, new rear leaf springs, has the rare agricultural rims. Has the rear pto”
UPDATE: May still be available.

These two nearly identical jeep brochures were published in different colors a year apart. The red version was published in late 1959. The blue (or green-blue?) brochure was published in late 1960.
Differences:
Page 1: The truck at the mid-far-left of the page on the 1960 version has the ‘hockey stick’ styling, where the 1959 version has the older styling. Curiously, the wagons are identical.
Page 2: The ‘hockey’ stick 4WD utility wagon moves from the right to the left hand side on the 1960 brochure, while the older-design 2WD wagon is dropped in favor of the Harlequin-design wagon. The plain version of the truck is swapped for the ‘hockey’ stick truck. There are a variety of small text edits as well.
Page 3: Some very minor edits. The red version of the brochure is marked Form NO. 59-19, while the blue version is marked Form No. 600-19. Both brochures were part of a 20 series set of brochures both years. Once I get both sets of brochures complete, I will do a post for each year of brochures.
