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 example in the rare colors of Cerulean Blue and Glacier White is probably the best completely restored example in the world. Everything has been done to the highest standards from the paint and chrome to the bright waterproof fabric upholstery and surrey top. The underhood presentation is exceptional and no detail has been ignored. Much more practical than a Moke or Jolly with legendary Jeep reliability this is a superb and entirely practical vehicle for bright summer days at the shore lake or ranch and will vie with Bentleys and Ferraris for pride of place in valet parking lots in Hollywood the Hamptons or South Beach. $42,500”
Quinn dropped me a note today. He just finished a new project and wanted to share it with us. Does this mean your you and your wife can write off the jeep? Thanks for sharing!
Quinn writes, “I finally finished my mobile billboard advertising trailer (see attached pictures). I use my M38 to pull it around town when running errands …… it generates leads for my wife’s real estate business.
NOTE: The base utility trailer was purchased from Harbor Freight [ed note: maybe this one?] for $150 and the vertical box and rear door were made using 90 degree angled steel strips. It’s fairly light weight and due to the short length of the Jeep, the entire rig fits into house garages, parking structures and street parking spaces. The trailer also has an 875lb load capacity which makes it convenient for carrying camping gear or the occasional BBQ equipment/supplies.”

This is a good looking CJ-3B with unusual striping.
“You are bidding on a beautiful original 1953 Willys Jeep CJ-3B. Black plate California jeep. This jeep runs very good with no oil consumption or leaks. The only rust is on the front fender where it meets the grill and the tailgat has a crack where the spare tire carrier used to be as seen in the pictures. It has a new clutch and pressure plate installed last year. The top is almost new with one small tear in the passenger door that happened when it was hauled to Arkansas from California in 2009. It also has a canopy top in good shape for those warm summer days. All 3 seats show some wear but have no rips or tears. The speedometer does not work the needle is broken off in the gauge. It has chrome rims and good street tires. The engine, transmission, twin stick transfer case and third members are all in good shape with easy shifting and no strange noises. New brakes were installed in 2009. The jeep comes with a tow bar for towing behind your motorhome. I have owned this jeep for over 10 years and bought it from a friend who used it on his horse ranch. This is a great jeep, a lot of fun and I would not hesitate to drive it anywhere. Good luck bidding and enjoy this historical masterpiece. THIS IS A NO RESERVE AUCTION. Any questions just e-mail me. This is sold AS IS with no warranty.”
“Frame on restoration done approximately 3 years ago. New wiring harness, Brakes, Interior, new tires, gas tank, Runs great, Original flat head six, Transfer may need a synchronizer, jumps out of gear if not tied down, simple fix I’m told This truck is and was rust free from the begining. A plus for a truck this age.”
(01/12/10) This CJ-2A has a few interesting features. One is the spare tire holder, which uses a strategy I’m considering for my build. Also, this jeep runs the treadwright retread tires.
“1949 CJ2A – Excellent (not perfect) condition. Has been redone from the ground up. A must see. Starts, runs, steers, brakes. Many features including a Warn overdrive, Tulsa Ramsey winch (electric), Saginaw steering, 12 volt electric system with alternator and modern lights. I have used it – it is not a garage decoration. Engine was torn down, did not need rebuilt/bored…and was filled with new parts. Transmission and Transfer case have been rebuilt. Has a dual master cylinder. Parking brake works.”
Ok, I can’t resist … something’s fishy about this FC :-). Actually, it looks in good, unrestored condition. The paint job is certainly one-of-a-kind.
“This is one great little Jeep! I bought this on Ebay almost 3 years ago and it has no doubt been my favorite out of the 30+ Jeeps that I have owned in the past several years. It has the stock drivetrain, 134ci F-head 4 cylinder, t-90 3 speed, dana spicer model 18 transfer case and dana axles. The motor runs good no knocking, ticking or smoke. Original 6 volt system. 4 wheel drive works fine: high and low and front locking hubs. It has a warn winch with a good controller that was rigged to a battery and solenoid in the bed but I have never tried to operate it and the battery has been removed. It has a heavy duty custom front bumper and the rear bumper is a custom tube air tank with a guage and air hose hook up to fill your tires, beach toys or run tools. The tailgate opens and closes fine, windows go up and down and the doors shut very tightly. There are no rattles or loose parts on this Jeep, it is solid. The floorboards look like they have been patched with metal and there is a layer of outdoor carpet for insulation and rubber flooring over that. The heater works, horn works and all guages work. The seats are black vinyl, firm and in great shape except for a small hole in the back of the passenger seat. The inside floor of the bed is flakey around the bottom edges but there is no rust through anywhere on this Jeep. The frame of course has surface rust and maybe some pitting I guess you would say but is still very solid. The rear cab corners have had new metal replaced on them but it is a very solid repair as well. This is the first year these were made and it has the narrow track axles which I think make it look even more unique….”
(10/06/09) I don’t anything to indicate this is a ’45 or a VEC. It appears the body is a replacement body. It appears in good shape.
“1945 Willy’s Civilian Jeep, 302 FORD V8, new radiator, new alternator, new clutch, new slave cylinder, new master cylinder, new shocks, new tires tow package overall great condition, CHERRY price $4,500.00, must sell 831-247-3669 ”
“1954 Willys Jeep. Asking $4,500 OBO. Has original 4 cyclinder engine run good. Locker axles in the back, power steering, tilt wheel, winch, stereo etc. Would be great jeep for the mountains.”
It’s got a funky rollbar, but otherwise looks pretty sound.
“1951 Willys CJ3A. Very good condition. No rust! The guy I purchased it from brought it from Soutern CA and had the motor rebuilt, about 1200 miles ago. I put all new suspension, springs, shackles, and shocks.Comes with a custom made bikini top and 2 sets of tires, one stock size, and one oversized. currently registered as an antique.”
