About eWillys
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.
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 .
“I have a 1948 Willys Cj2-a Jeep 4×4, perfect for deer lease or trail riding. Welded rear end will go anywhere, full roll cage for safety, 231 v6, 4×4 works, seats good. NO TITLE. Running 4 months ago, carb prob needs cleaned tho, been sitting, needs battery. We should be able to drive it on your trailer. Good looking Jeep, almost 70 years old tho, steering has slop, brakes work but need work. I rebuilt master cylinder and larger brakes and drums on the front about 5 yrs ago. I have 2 other Willys Jeeps, so may let this one go. Interested in trades only right now, other classics, truck, Jeep, 4x4s, Rubicon axles for a TJ, Pre 1980 Wagoneer axles, 90’s F350 axles, Several things that go boom.”
“Selling my 1953 willys cj3a project. Only reason I’m selling is because I have too many projects. 4cyl engine partially installed. T90 transmission. Solid. Well worth the time and effort.”
All stock and original inside and out. The exterior has a fresh coat of paint. Its the original indian ceramic color – looks orange or pink depending on the sunlight.
The drivetrain is all original. 134ci F-head.
Everything works from the 4 wheel drive up to the windshield wipers.
If you are looking for a Jeep that hasn’t been abused then this is it.
Its a real time capsule. Still has original spare.
The Koenig 1/2 hardtop is also vintage and according to the second owner who bought it in the mid 60’s has been on it since new.
Only rust is in the passenger floor board about the size of a half dollar.
Runs and drives great.
Must see to appreciate.”
“1954 Willys ranch truck with high performance Chevy 350. Engine runs and was installed in 1975. Has sat in a barn since. Solid body with below average rust. Clear Texas title”
“I have for sale a vintage jeep Willys bed extension box. This box is in great condition for its age! The tailgate is on it backwards, but can be switched around. Dimensions of this box are: 39 inches wide, 16 inches deep, 28 inches long! Brackets are included for attaching to a Willys Jeep. This is still usable as it’s original intended purpose, or could be repurposed into 1 million different things! ”
Here’s what Colin deduced: The mounts on the front frame rails are in a position where the front conveyor supports can be mounted.
The rear platform for the conveyor is attached to the rear corner of the tub on those DJ3As and on the sides of the CJ3B as well (see the CJ-3B page). It would preclude the rear taillights, and rear fuel filler that is standard on the DJ3A, but one photo of the DJ3A with the North Central Convair 500 shows the fuel fill tube low on the right rear corner, and the rear wheel opening is modified just like the one on 20796 (See the CJ-3B page for pics side and rearish.
Also, the right rear corner of the tub is modified to clear the conveyor.I suspect the large holes in the rear panels helped support the bracing for the rear platform and also carried the hydraulic lines and controls for on the ground operation. The Line lock was for the brakes and the chrome handle on the left side of the dash were no doubt for the governor. The emergency brake T- handle was moved to a location where the driver could set it, otherwise it would have been under the conveyor apparatus.
“1950’s model DJ3A Military Willys Jeep DJ3A. Body in great shape, nearly rust free, have engine and transmission, 2 windshields, most of the major parts are there. Needs restoration or used for parts. Too many projects already so decided to move on.”
