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 .
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000.
Not sure how much value is here.
“Negotiable or trade for box trailer, cargo trailer or decent camper.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3000.
Most of the photos show a body, but then the seller notes there is no body.
“For sale 53 willys cj3b with cab and snow plow. This is a parts jeep. There is a frame and motor that has everything rebuilt. The former owner rebuilt everything on the frame and axels,motor, trans, dif, brakes and steering to new. He lost all the body and all the hardware in shed fire. The frame was in a different shed. Have both titles.$3000.00 for everything. Cj3b’s are rare.”
No pics provided.
“1961 jeep cj data plate says its a cj3b, wheelbase is correct for that model; 80 inches. Has the original hurricane 4 c,ylinder engine, freshly built carb and added an electric fuel pump 3 spd trans with hi/lo transfer case. Engine doesn’t knock or smoke. Clutch good, tranny shifts smoothly. Had been sitting for three forevers when I bought it, was not running. Still has original oil-bath air filter. Body is straight, some rust repair has been done in the past, but it is basically sound. At some point someone changed the front clip because it has the rounded hood and fenders, not the high hood and square fenders that are correct for the cj3b. It needs a restoration. Needs windshield, fuel tank, and the brakes need going through. I have a set of seats from a honda accord that I was going to use in it, but never got that far with the project. Neat little jeep, just needs re-doing and a good home. I am going to attempt to list pictures but if they don’t make the post I will be happy to text them to your phone. I can deliver this jeep if necessary.”

For the price, a person can get a real jeep.
“Selling a custom built Willys Jeep look a like. Whole body was handmade, narrowed Jeep grille, frame is a 1962 military Mule. 4 wheel steer, hydro stat drive, forward/reverse, 16hp Briggs V twin engine, runs good and fires right up, has a choke ran into the cab, 12v system, working headlights and tail lights and siren. Has misc ammo cans, boxes, shovel, extinguisher, etc. Pretty cool little rig. Add a mirror, blinkers and triangle and drive it around. It’s not fast by any means(around 10mph) but very unique, well built, not a hack job. Perfect for parades, tooling around the campsite, whatever. This does not have a title, it’s a homebuilt unit.
It does have a small hydraulic leak underneath the body under the driver seat. Just don’t have the time to fix it. Could just be a fitting or seal. It fires right up and runs great, just drips oil a bit. No trades, cash only. $4200. Located south of Springfield IL in Virden.”

This March 1956 article from Willys News explains how some dealerships were using the DJ-3A as a drop off vehicle. A driver from the dealership would drive the jeep to a vehicle owner’s house, pickup the car, hook the jeep’s hitch to the customer’s car, and then drive the car to the dealership for maintenance. After servicing it, a driver would bring the car back to the customer’s house, jeep in tow, and return in the jeep.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8500.
Looks like a solid build.
