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 .

“I have a 1951 Jeep Willys CJ3A for sale. This girl is fun to drive and with summer here, will be a fun in the sun antique to drive. This jeep looks like it could have crawled up the beaches of Normandy and is a 4×4 that won’t get stuck in the mud. This Jeep is not mint or show quality, but it is in overall good body condition. The upgraded engine is a chevy V6 and it runs very well. It has updated wiring and is street legal. Has the side mounted axe and shovel, gas can, and spare tire. It has a front tow bar so that you can pull it with a 2inch ball to the lake or to your hunting spot. This jeep gets a lot of attention wherever it goes. I”m asking $4,500. I’ve brought the Jeep into the city from storage so if interested give me a call at 913-424-2188 to take a look.

Brian asked me if I knew when CJ-5s switched to 12 volts. I couldn’t find the answer online, so I was hoping someone might know? He has a 1956 that is 6 volts.
On another note, since I’m about to begin a month of traveling and will be away, I’m going to remove Biscuit from the ‘for sale’ category. Hopefully, between now and the end of November, I will finally get a job offer I’ve been awaiting. If that occurs, Biscuit won’t be re-listed any time soon, which might just please my mother more than anyone for I think she was the one most upset about me selling it!
For the record, I think Steve’s Jinx worked; I never received a single call about the my ad either off eWillys or Craigslist.
UPDATE: More pics added to this post that show the build process. Thanks for sharing Paul!
Paul wrote to me a couple days ago to share his nearly completed project. I’ll bet it will be a kick to drive. He notes that eWillys “gets part of the blame for my madness.” Yeah, I’ve heard that a few times 🙂
“My project is a 1949 CJ-2A that i inherited. It has a custom tube chassis, 2wd, rack and pinion steering and 4 link rear suspension. The body is stretched and frt wheels moved forward. The 5.0 ford engine has an aluminum head and a roller cam. The tranny is a c-4 auto. The rear end is built with a narrowed 3.73 8.8 inch ford with traction lock. The fuel cell mounts under rear seat. Finally, the markings on the jeep are from my unit in vietnam. It is going to be a street rod and parade car. I have had a blast building it so far and hope to have it on the road soon.”
