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 .
Even with the engine out this looks like a good price (unless there’s a lot of rust in the floors. Includes a solid looking Kelly Cab.
“Motor is out and disassembled ready for rebuild. block will need to be bored out. No title.”

Has some updates.
“I have for sale a 1952 Willys CJ3A Jeep with a 3 speed transmission and a Chevy 4.3 V6.
It has a new tub, fenders and grill from Kaiser willys.
All new gauges with sending units.
New wiring harness.
Rebuilt Chevy 4.3 V6 with less than 500 miles.
Engine had a Edelbrock Performance 4 barrel carb and aluminum intake manifold.
MSD coil on distributor ignitions system.
Relocated oil filter.
New performance 3 row aluminum radiator.
New thermostat and water pump.
New Flex-a-lite 2500cfm fan.
Rebuilt T90 3speed and transfer case
Samurai axles front and rear with disc brakes in front.
Optima battery
Electric fuel pump with new fuel tank.
I have a binder full of receipts on the original build that nearly exceed the asking price. Not to mention the time that has been invested. Only issues I would address would be to re-gear the Jeep or install an aftermarket overdrive to have a slight lower RPM while cruising on 2 lane roads. Also the front drive shaft needs to be hooked up, due to a clearance issue. Otherwise this is and excellent show winning vehicle that could be a great weekend driver! Only selling to pay off some debt and get my shop in order for future projects.
I’m currently asking for $11,500 OR BEST OFFER.
I will consider partial trades for other Jeeps, Scouts, land cruisers or any interesting projects.”

This ran when parked, but no longer has a battery (or at least a good battery), so in its present state it doesn’t not run and drive (it might with a battery). The body is fiberglass.

It’s a project.
“For sale is a 1951 Willys M-38, a veteran of the Korean War Era. This was a stalled out restoration project. The previous owner completely rebuilt the engine and brake system. I needed the engine for a project of mine so the rest is for sale. Nice frame, new brakes, very restorable body, first $1800 takes it.”
