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 .
Runs? May have a Beck hardtop.

It is in running condition except it needs a little work. Needs some hoses and the radiator needs replace(new one sitting there for it) I am selling this for a friend (who has passed away) I don’t know much about it so it is best that you come look at it at the Antique Link store in Silver Springs. It is mounted to a trailer with a large Buss saw setup attached.
It can be towed as is. Trailer has an attached hitch.”
UPDATE: Still Available?

“PRICE REDUCTION!!!! I’m still selling my two Gpws 1942&1943. Again It comes with two bodies, two motors (one decked and bored) an engine rebuild kit. New front seats new gas tank. An extra frame that’s been sandblasted already, three hoods ones been and blasted. One Jeep has already been taken apart. One transmission. Axles. And 5 brand new tires. I have lost interest in the project, and I need money for school. I’m just trying to get back what I have into it. $5000 obo for everything. I might be willing to trade. I also have some small accessories like a water bucket. I also have the capability to transport it to anywhere in the South west part of the US. In and Surrounding Colorado. For an extra cost depending where. I’m not really not wanting to part it out and want it all gone at one time.”
If the tranny is in good shape, this could be worth a look. It’s not the 6:1 version.

If you need an extra fuel tank, maybe this will do.

“Heavy duty rear mounted fuel tank with rear seat mounted to it. This came out of my 1953 Willys cj3b.”
Bill Reiss shared these photos he took of a modified CJ-3B used by the Automobile Club of Southern California. It was a feature of the Los Angeles Auto Show earlier this week. (See an example of the club’s 2A set up from 1949 here).
