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 .
Not letting anything go to waste, Jeremy has put an old rim to good use.
He writes, ” The TRUE Willys enthusiast uses old Jeep tires and rims as a fan stand, rather than donating to the scrapyard. Behind the fan you can see the newly restored frame from my 43 Willys.”
Sebastian snapped these photos of this right hand drive jeep.
He writes, “Last Saturday I spotted this beautiful Jeep in Bimini Island (Bahamas). See attached pictures. Some very interesting features such as the steering wheel at the “wrong” side, a quality roof, lateral seats, nice speakers, and extended back. I did not see anyone around so I don’t know who the owner is or what is the car for, maybe a private recreational vehicle? or a public taxi like in Colombia? not sure, but definitely I envy the person that drives this jewel on the beach.”
This looks like a pretty rig.

“1950 flat fender willys jeep with lots of extras. Hard top, overdrive tranny, tilt wheel and more. Call 541-884-6444. Ask for Les”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $2100
(07/06/2011) It runs and drives.
“231ci even fire V6, three speed manual with hydraulic clutch. Has disc brakes front and rear. Locked front and rear as well.Warn hubs on the front. Sitting on a mismatched set of 35″ BFGs. Runs and drives.
It is registered as a 44 Ford jeep. Has a CJ grill and windshield frame on it though. Its definitely not the nicest flatfender around. Would make a great trail rig with little little work. Or could be made nice with a lot of work. One would have to be mad at themselves to want to restore this to original, pristine condition, but I have seen worse turned into better. I bought this jeep to play around in the woods and drive it around town, but it has sat in my garage for a couple years basically untouched, so its time to get rid of it. It has collector plates on it as well.
$2300 obo

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5500
” This jeep has been in the family since the early 80’s. My Dad then allowed some of his workers to use it for side jobs, etc. and it got in fairly rough shape. It underwent a very amateur redo (there is bondo in places) by one of his workers in order to give the guy some work.
It starts and runs fine, it does leak oil, brakes are fine (took forever to get those right) tires are good, etc. The oil leakage is somewhat minor, just needs some TLC and maybe a gasket kit. The windshield has cracks from being dropped when lowered.
Due to the creative use of the VW high back seats in the front, the gas tank is in back. Seat for passenger are from a bus. I have the title in hand; it is registered as an antique vehicle, but could just as easily be registered as a daily driver should you choose to. Missing little bits here and there, like turn signals on front. It has the original flat head four and drivetrain. Don’t let the little size fool you, I pulled a ton of jacked up big ole trucks out of the mud with it years back. These jeeps are quickly becoming unavailable due to rust, and people just scrapping them or not letting them go. This one is still in decent shape and mostly original.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2200
This looks like a good price.

“1953 Willys CJ-3A. Great project jeep. Last of the flat fenders, would make an awesome rock crawler/off roader. I have too many other projects and not enough time to devote to refurbing this classic”
