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 .
This is John’s CJ-3A named Brownie. Here are some closeups. You can see the whole jeep here. And, we saw the whole family here.
The first pic is the vintage award he received from the Lost Valley Jeep Ralley Oct. 10-12. There were 65 Jeeps, 3 of them Willys.
This chair was customized for John’s Wife:

This MB sounds like it has a story.

This looks nice. It’s got a few mods. Note the handwinch in the last pic.
“1948 Willys Jeep CJ2A. The Jeep has been in dry New Mexico its entire life and is 99% rust free. The I purchased the Jeep in 1997 from an elderly gentleman here in Albuquerque, New Mexico. He owned it since 1972, and he bought it from the original owner. I have many records with some registration records dating back to 1954. It has always been garaged, and is in excellent condition.

This is a nice looking truck with a low mileage engine.
“
1951 Willys-Overland station wagon, 31,200 miles on the engine. Originally from Colorado used for every day driving. Has a Flathead 6, 3 speed with overdrive column shift. Very solid body, recently finished the headliner inside, there’s a small crack on the rear driver side window, and the speedometer gave out this August. I drive about 200 miles a month on it. if you have questions feel free to call or email me. (734) 731-4353 . It’s ready to drive home to a new owner I’m just tired of this wagon and need a new classic to drive.”
Less than $1000 for a running truck with a plow blade. Looks like a deal.

It’s a project.
“Up for auction is my 1949 Willys Jeep CJ3A. This is a project that I just don’t have time for, due to Deployments. This Jeep runs, the tranny shifts, and the 4 wheel drive works. I do give a guarantee. Just hook up some fuel and a battery this baby will start. I discarded the body because it was too far gone to repair. You can order the body and practically every part for this Jeep through companies like Kaiser Willys. I have purchased a new grill and steering wheel along with other misc. parts. The window frame is in OK shape and will need new glass, it’s flat and will be easy to replace. All this Jeep needs is to be sand blasted painted and ready for body. I will help in the shipping process, I would consider delivering within 250 miles of Fort Campbell KY for 1.00 per mile. I also have a V8 conversion kit for this Jeep if interested. Happy Bidding please e-mail or call me @ 910-309-1623 for questions.”
(09/06/09) It looks good and straight. The price is looking pretty good.
“Fires right up & runs/drives great. New tires, trans rebuilt, new clutch. I have a brand new (correct) COMPLETE windshield assy (minus glass, but w/all weatherstripping) and a brand new (correct) tailgate that will go with the sale. I also have NOS gauges, tail light, front markers. Clean title.
Also interested in trades, depending on what you’ve got. Car/truck/classic/Jeep/OHV – let me know & we’ll talk about it. Not interested in basket cases or projects with a long way to go though. (Trailer not included in sale). ”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $350
“1959 Willys Jeep, cab over, 4×4, good for parts or project. mostly complete, not running, no title. $400,”
I found the image below on eBay. The bidding has ended, but I”m sure it will return. I thought it looked very similar to Brian’s CJ-3B (or former CJ-3B — did you ever sell it?). After located a pic of the CJ-3B, I concluded it must have been used as the model of the drawing.
One image below is the drawing and one is a shot of the CJ-3B from the CJ-3B page (See more pics of it there — It’s a beauty!).
According to an old ebay listing, this particularly drawing is a run of 250 prints of a drawing by artist Duke Edwards. I didn’t know who Duke Edwards was, so I did a google search and found the information below from the ‘Automotive Art Gallery‘.
“Duke has been “doodling” for almost 40 years but had limited his clientele to friends and local car clubs. Since making his work available to the public, he has received international recognition and has pieces on museum display as well as in private collections. For just “doodling” Duke is amazingly talented.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4100
“New Aluminum CJ3A JEEP body on a new 1973 CJ5 powder coated frame. This frame allows the use of a V8 engine. Powder coated Dana 44 rear, Dana 30 front, and Dana 300 Transfer case, are geared for the new tires installed on the polished aluminum wheels. A complete new power disc brake system is still in the boxes. New parts include a new fuel cell, fuel line, wiring harness, body mounts and suspension parts. All the parts for this project cost over $17,000, not including the powder coating, windshield frame and original front grill. I don’t even want to think about how much was spent on powder coating parts. I will offer delivery within a reasonable distance. Call for a list of all the new parts included with this offer. May trade. Call me with what you have.”
