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 might be a VEC based only on the seller’s comment about multiple plates on the dash. It looks like the passenger step has seen some fixing.

This has some nice pix of the rear bed extender. The F-head has been nicely tucked under the hood as well.
“This is a 1950 Willys CJ3a that I have just purchased out of Texas. Due to an emergancy I must sell this and my 1947 CJ2a. I bought this from the family of the original owner who purchased it new. He added the Warn Overdrive so he could drive hightway speeds. He also added the rare Willys Bed Extension so he could sleep in the back. The jeep is in great overall condition. Has a little rust bubbling behind the A pillar. The floors are solid no rust other than surface rust. the tool box under the seat is solid also no rust. Seats in great shape very soft. has a few scrapes and dents but over all great shape. At some point in its life an F134 engine was added. It has a Corvette side draft carburator (carter YF). It starts easily and runs great but smoke. May be stuck rings from sitting or just tired. I will include a good running F134 engine out of a M38a1 that I took out of a M170 jeep. It comes with a another T-90 transmission and transfercase. This engine has been converted to 12 volts. I will include the distriburtor, New High torque mini starter, new one wire alternator. The current engine is still 6 volts and has a new battery. Has the original keyed ignition coil system and step starter. I have the 2 doors and all the top mounting bows and brackets but no top. Garage stored. Has old school front lock outs. I have the both front fog lights but one is broke”

This CJ-2A almost looks as if the rear of the body is GPW/MB and the front of it is CJ-2A. Or, it’s seen some body patching.

4×4 works good
original hurricane 4 cyl. runs good
original 3 speed transmission shifts good
took body off frame and sanded and painted frame in 05 when I got the truck
put new hoses and belts, radiator, fuel pump, water pump, wires, plugs, shocks, brakes
good set of tires all around
drove this truck every summer since 05, last driven in oct 10, haven’t got it out this year yet,
needs new battery, put new in in 05 but now it’s dead but can be jump off to drive,
it has the original 6 volt system
this truck was made from the factory on a cj3 frame and running gear, so even though it
is a rare truck, parts for the drive train are very easily found.
the body on this truck is pretty good shape for its year, it looks like it was repainted years ago,
rust is at a minimum for these trucks, both floor boards and rear cab corners are the worst part
this truck is as close to original as they come, i’ve driven it all over the place on road on trails
i took it to a car show 30 miles away, which took a while considering it has a top speed of 50 mph down hill
i love this truck but have to many toys and no room.
I prefer cash but will consider partial trades or trades for samurai tin top, jeep cj or wrangler with hard top 4×4 only”
