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 .
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4000
(06/29/2010) This was rebuilt in 1986, but then work stopped(?) when it came time to rebuild the engine (as best as I can figure out). I can’t tell if it runs or not.
“Originally restored / completed in 1986; Been sitting every since with plans of continuing engine projectl; currently has 4 cylinder motor; 3 speed transmission w/ overdrive”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
(06/29/2010) The serial number of 130476 suggests this is a 1947 rather than a 1946.

(05/17/2010) No doubt this is actually a ’45 or earlier.

This looks like a good candidate for a restoration project.
“1953 Willy’s truck small block chevy engine, the rest of the drive train is stock including the Warn overdrive. This truck is rust free and very solid, easy resteration. I have owned this truck for a long time and it has spent a good bit of it’s life in a garage. The green paint or what is left of it is original, the interior has been redone, It needs the new master cyclinder to be installed. The transmisssion is growly but still drives and stays in gear.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4200.

(04/30/2010) It’s hard to tell much from the photo.

If all that is wrong is the fuel pump, then this might be a great deal.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7500.
I wonder if there are any pics of this used in the brewery. And, I wonder what they did with it.
“Great condition. Only 20,000 miles. With unique Wilys snowplow. Runs and drives great. Very original. Was used inside of a brewery. Always stored inside.”
The seller seems pretty accurate with this one.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3400
(06/30/2010) There’s been some body work done to this jeep. For example, it appears there is diamond plating around the gas inlet.
“UP FOR AUCTION, 1953 CJ 3B Willys Jeep, runs good, stock overhead cam 4 cyl, original motor. New soft top, new windshield, lift kit with oversized tires. All gauges work, automatic windhield wipers, new fuel tank.Body straight paint is nice, no rust. Have door for it but they do not match the paint.”

“This is a 1959 Willys CJ3B. I don’t know the history it was a trade for some work. The jeep belongs to a friend of mine this is all he knows about this vehicle. The previous owner purchased the jeep in 1968 and had the body work done and the engine rebuilt at some time. The jeep runs fine and everything works! 4 wheel drive hi and low. I have not checked out the wench to see if it works but will check it out and update you as to my findings. The jeep is located in Hollister CA and needs to be picked up or driven home from here.”
