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 .
This shouldn’t last long. It’s got an overdrive and it runs! If it were near me I’d buy it.
“1955 Willy’s Jeep with 44,739 original miles. Quite a collector’s item. The engine number is 4J94860 and the vin number is 5754818451. An overdrive has been added to the drive train. It has the original 4 cylinder motor and runs. The carburetor has been rebuilt including a new accelerator pump. It has new spark plugs, a new battery, and the tires are in good shape. $600. OBO. If the new owner wished to keep the original 4-cylinder motor, he may want to install a new fuel pump.”
“A friend has a 1959 Willis jeep/ wagon. It in pretty fair shape and seems to be original stock. 2 WD, inline6, single barrel, VERY lite rust barn stored. Have pictures call or text if you have an idea of current value, restored value/ collect ability. Any info would be much appreciated. Thanks”
Jerk spotted this unusual CJ-6 with what I assume is a custom bed. It’s another odd ball.
“Google translation of ad;

Brian forwarded this mini-jeep listed at a real-jeep price.
“Mini Jeep CJ3B. A must-have for the little Jeepster in your life!! You will not see one like this anywhere else, it truly is ONE OF A KIND. Mini Jeep, tube frame (not lawnmower based.) Front & rear working lights plus off road lights, 10hp Kohler engine with electric start in excellent working order, hydrostatic transmission forward and reverse, electric winch. How about a trade? Mike 231-218-0ne zero55.”
(06/29/2013) It might not be at “factory specs”, but it’s got a repro body and appears solid.
“I’m selling a 64 cj3b it has been restored to factory specs all the way down to the rivots in the frame it also comes with another fhead engine and trans plus axels leaf springs etc to much to list basically everything to build another without frame and body if interested call Dave at 734-344-nine743 5000 for everything or best cash offer”
(06/28/2013) This looks pretty straight. It’s not entirely stock.
“Current registration and insurance, clear title in hand.
Body- Dented, rusty, some minor repairs done by prior owner. It is very useable as is, actually better than most project jeeps I looked at before buying this one, but needs work to be perfect. Some of the hat channels underneath are rusted and need repaired. This is actually very solid, just want you to know what to expect.
Frame- Solid, no major issues or rust that I have found.
Engine- GPW (ford) 4cyl engine. (this is the military version of the stock motor= not the factory original engine). The GPW is a nice addition depending on your plans, as it it worth more than the stock motor as many people restoring military jeeps would like to have the original style motor. Engine runs good overall, but the exhaust needs to be removed and the heat exchanger flap freed up. This is the flap that re-circulated exhaust air around the intake when the engine is cold to make it run better. It is common for these to seize up and cause the exhaust air to always heat the intake. This causes the gas to get hot in the carb and flood the engine. I had this freed up last year, but it sat over winter and is stuck again. Radiator was rebuilt last year, like new.
A US surfing celebrity called Roxy dropped by Moorea in Tahiti and borrowed Alex’s CJ3A for some fashion shots. I personally think they cropped too much of the jeep, but I guess it is all about the model these days . . . On the bright side, he made a few bucks on the rental 🙂
Finally, you can catch a quick glimpse of the jeep racing through the pinapple fields. You’ll have to watch a bunch of women in small bikinis to see it though. I’m sure you’ll all suffer through it just fine.
