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 .
Roy Roger’s sidekick Pat Brady had a couple color books made under his name that feature a variety of nellybelle images. You can read more about nellybelle at the CJ-3B page.
1) This coloring book is for sale in a few different places. The cheapest price I found was on Etsy for $8.00 (plus shipping) and includes a few pages colored.
2) The cover of this coloring book was on a Pat Brady Biography page. I haven’t found it for sale anywhere yet.

Dun-Rite Plumbing? Why would someone want to project competency through their business name, yet spell it incorrectly? It just doesn’t seem done right. The seller notes the van wasn’t done right, either.
“1964 Jeep CJ3a Fleetvan; imagine a 7 ft. tall WW2 Jeep. Originally from California, superficial rust only.. I bought it with no engine but installed a 1991 2.5 liter Jeep engine with an AX5 transmission and transfer case. If desired you can swap the front axle and make it 4WD.
NEW wheel brake cylinders, new brake hoses, new brake lines. The rear end was converted to Discs in the 1970s, pads are good and the rotors were turned. Front drums were turnd before new shoes were installed.
The 1964 one cylinder brake master was swapped out for a newer two chamber from a Toyota Tacoma. Mechanical clutch was replaced with a new Wildwood hydraulic master; the clutch on the 2.5 engine is only a year old.
One of the corner windows is cracked, but readily available from the Glass Dr. et al, it’s flat glass. The gas tank is shiney inside. A late model speedo and gages are included, I have the original 6V unit.

“BARN YARD FIND! Been parked for 25 years. We did not receive to much information on the vehicle. It is a 1951 Willys Jeep with a clear title. 4×4 with lockout hubs. Jeep also has a heater, which from my research is an option. I had several people look at it for me and i was told it was a cj2 or cj3, i am not sure. The mileage shows 84,278 and i dont know if that is accurate. The jeep did come with keys. It takes a 6 volt battery, but does not have one.Left door and right door are complete with glass mainly just surface rust. Both doors open good with the latch. The hard top is made by Koenig iron works MODEL # 325. On the hard top by the back window there is rust with holes on the bottom below the window by the floor. The hood does have some rust holes. Oil looks good. Still has anti-freeze also.Everything under the hood does look complete. Frame looks good for its year. Windshield has surface rust around it. Drivers windshield has white stuuf on the bottom of it. Clutch and brake pedal feel like they are good. Body and floors very rusty. 5 denman N.D.T. tires (non directional tires), tires look good, spare tire has never been down, did not need to add air when we picked it up,”
