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 .
This was just too odd to pass up.

I like this ad.
“This collectible magazine advertisement is original, not a reprint or photocopy. It measures apprx. 10 1/2″ wide by 13 1/2″ tall and is in good condition ready to mat and frame. Due to the nature of vintage paper, most advertisements will show some minor signs of aging and wear. All of our ads are packaged in plastic sleeves with a cardboard backing inside of a mylar mailer.”

“Decided to sell my 1952 Willys CJ3A that just recently completed a full, frame off restoration. My family has owned this Jeep for 37 years (since 1975) when my Dad bought. He recently passed away and this Jeep isn’t helping the healing process for some reason.
This Willys went thru a complete restoration and was finished in 2012. A complete BRAND NEW steel body was purchased and installed. Frame was sandblasted, tec. Jeep has original motor and trans as well as a very RARE factory installed rear PTO winch. Tires are OEM originals and also Brand New. The list of New Parts is very long, all original and expensive!
Those of you that know these Jeeps, know what they are worth. I’m looking for the Best Offer. For those of you out there that are tire kickers, I will advise you that any offer under $15k won’t even be considered……so that’s the ballpark I’m playing in.
Email or text wih any questions…..33zero-42one-68zero0”

“1957 Willies Jeep FC 150
4 Wheel Drive
Front Controlled
Project vehicle = Lots of work.
No paperwork.”
The bumper could use replacing, but this pic hints that this might be in decent shape.
“This is a 1956 4 wheel drive Willys pick up. I believe it’s all original including the 134 CID 6CYL and Borg Warner transmission. It was a running truck when I bought it as a project 2 years ago. It has since been started a few times but has not been run in about 6-8 months. Will require a tune up to be road ready again.

“1949 Willys VJ This is a great car, fun to drive and a real head turner. I purchased this last winter from a private seller in AZ who had been rebuilding it and he tried to keep it as original as possible. It was near finished and I added a few things to it. Here is a list.
New: top and side curtains, frame for top, gas tank and sending unit, exhaust pipe and muffler, fuel pump, turn signals, hub caps, seats covers, a new overdrive, chrome bumpers, steering wheel with suicide knob, outside mirrors, dash nobs and carb kit. The engine is a totally rebuilt 4 cyl. (lead-free gas) by a Jeep expert in Phoenix and it has a newer paint job with a few small road chips and almost all of the chrome is new and looks excellent. I had a slider built for the driver’s seat so it can be adjusted. It is a six volt system and has radial tires that are like new. It has always been garaged.
Things I did not get to: back brakes need new seals and the transmission has a problem with 2nd gear slipping out at times.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3000
This VEC has a V-8 installed in it.
“Up for sale is a great restoration project. 1946 willys cj2a. It has a clean tittle and current reg in my name. It has it’s fair share of bumps and bruises but it is a driver and could be a daily driver if you want it to be. All stock running gear except for the engine. It has a 283 small block chevy with a adapter to the 3 speed and rare factory overdrive. You can drive it 55 no problem. It is a project but it is a driver as well. Also has a old all aluminum arctic top for the winter. All lights blinkers and gauges work as well. All new brakes too.”
The rims and grille look good. There appears to be value here.
“1953 CJ3B for sale. This is a project jeep with lots of parts to go along with it. The engine is shot. I am not looking for much just would hate to send it to the scrap yard but I promised my wife I would get rid of it. I will consider any reasonable offer or possibly trade or some combination there of. I am looking for small utility trailer or a small motorcycle (does not have to be pretty) and would be happy to work a trade.”
