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 .
Brad is helping a friend sell this jeep. You can contact him at bgates8848@aol.com.
“I am helping a friend sell his 1952 CJ-3A. Major problem is the engine has no compression on #2 and #3 cylinder. Was running up until that time approx. 3 months ago. Brakes have been rebuilt, some steering parts replaced, new windshield glass, new 12 volt battery. NEW NDT tires and tubes, wheels blasted and painted. Body tub is in fair but solid condition. Seats appear to be uncut original, with replacement upholstery. Cloth wiring is frayed/missing and the complete wiring harness should be repaired/replaced. Fuel tank is missing the sender unit.”
“My interest have changed and I am going to part with all the Willys vehicles I have. Here is the list:
1959 Willys Jeep 4×4 pickup truck. This truck was stripped down to the bare frame. The cab was replaced with a cab from a 1956. All new braking system. New fuel system. 226 Hurricane six cylinder engine with a new Weber progressive two barrel carb. Three speed main trans two speed transfer case. Electric wipers. Four new Mastercraft tires. The truck drives nice. The body work remains to be done. The bed is junk but it does have the W/O tail gate. Clean Ohio title.
1950 Willys wagon. This is a two wheel drive car. It is from Arizona and is a rust free car except under the rubber mats where the floor is rusted. The four cylinder engine is locked up. Three on the tree with overdrive. The car is nearly 100 percent original and nearly 100 percent complete. Clean Ohio title. Continue reading →
“1957 jeep fc150 Runs perfect trans and clutch perfect. This one has the hurricane straight six! Has working plow. Good for restoring or parts or chassis swap ect. Drive train same as Willis truck.”
“Came off late 1942 GPW. Tub has several solid straight panels. Dash, cowl and firewall all straight but dash has some extra holes. Fenders need inner support brackets and some minor patching but appear straight and never dented. Hood also straight. Glove box door is straight and has left and right info plates but they were painted over. Glove Box is solid and straight and button appears original but is frozen up.”
I snatched this awesome Kelly hardtop brochure off of eBay for a good price. It includes information on the Kelly Safari hardtop. What I like is that the brochure also documents the models numbers.
Also included was the price list (one that includes two different types of dispatchers) and an original order envelope. I also didn’t know that Kelly interacted with Kayline tops at one point. Based on a Kayline brochure, it appears that Kayline handled the territory west of the Mississippi, while Kelly sold Kayline tops east of the Mississippi.
“I have a 1952 CJ3A I’ve been working on for several years and I’m looking for someone to help me put it all back together. I have the fiberglass tub back from paint, chassis powder coated and installed, new tires, overhauled engine.
What remains:
Permanently mount the body onto the frame
Convert the 6V to a 12V (new conversion kit and all parts are already ordered and ready to install)
Run the fuel lines
Install the electrical components and hook up all new instruments (holes already cut)
Mount seats into frame
A few other odds and ends 🙂
As restoration projects go, this one is really close to completion but I need some help; the last and final push, to get it back on the road.
I have done or paid to have done (i.e. paint, engine OH) and it has taken me a long time. Ready to finish it before the cold weather arrives. I am 100 lbs and I lack the physical strength to shift the tub into proper place on my own, and I am new to this area. I am looking for someone that can help me with the remaining restoration project. Flexible hours, at my location in Grants Pass where I have the vehicle stored. I can pay you hourly or salary, depending on your skill level and how you prefer to work. Please have knowledge of older vehicles, be competent at what you do, honest, have integrity and preferably a love of old Willys and / or fond of vintage aircraft (I installed over 2,000 rivets into the body of this tub 🙂 )”
