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 .
The body appears in good shape. I doubt this one lasts long.

(08/10/2022) Runs, but needs some work. It looks to be a flat bed.

“Runs, does not currently drive. Great foundation for restore project!”
The body has a few fixes and the engine has been updated.

“Cj2a parts/project old parts, new parts, rebuilt parts, rebuilt Buick v-6.”
These should be of interest to someone. Note the top left rim seems to have a flat spot at the bottom of it?

“Super hard to find, original military combat wheels I put this set together over the last couple of years. These are real nice. barely any rust. There are after-market wheels, so don’t settle if you are restoring!
1000.00 cash or trade for morgan silver dollars or something amphibious.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3000.
This is a project.

UPDATE: Still Available.
(05/29/2022) The seller lists some of the problems that need to be addressed. It’s powered by an f-head.

“1949 Willy’s CJ3A. Runs and drives great. I have an additional motor that came with it when I bought it from a 1960 Jeep, original hood and tow bar. Also, I have an extra set of wheels and tires to go with it. The body is in great shape. Little to no rust. The guy I bought it from wasn’t sure on the year, but said he dropped in an early 1960’s F4-134 F-Head motor. Everything works: four-wheel drive, transmission, lights, speedometer, oil-pressure, etc. Already has the classic license plates.
It is 73 years old, so there’s always room for improvement. The windshield is cracked, no e-brake (I have the housing), gas gauge doesn’t work (needs a new tank sending unit), muffler pipe is cracked and could use a weld, wouldn’t hurt to get a new battery. It’s been converted to a 12V system.
Overall, it’s a great Willy’s that isn’t rusted out. It’s been stored inside. Nice to drive to town or take into the mountains. Awesome hunting rig, just don’t have the time or storage anymore for it. $6,200 OBO. Looking for cash at the moment, no trades.”
This was for sale a couple years ago. It is 2WD only.
https://seattle.craigslist.org/oly/cto/7535359967.html
“Customized 1955 Willy CJ3B show quality jeep. 350 engine, 350 turbo transmission, 355 posi, B&M shifter, 2×4, 8000 lb. wench, custom racing seats and harness belts, powder-coated roll bar & bumpers, LED lights, diamond plate storage box, tires 32×11.5Rx15 (all-terrain), aluminum rims, front disc brakes, Hippo spray liner on the underbody and inside body, tilt wheel. This is a show quality vehicle, a must see to appreciate.”
This has been for sale for a while. Price has dropped to $1500. It seems like there is some parts value here at the very least.

“Does not run. Engine needs rebuild, Radiator needs repair!
Clear Title.
Has original canvas top and aftermarket top
THIS IS A PROJECT JEEP!!”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(09/12/2022) TJ shared this jeep. Interestingly, the manufacturer of the hardtop is “Overland Manufacturing Ordinance”.
https://portland.craigslist.org/clk/cto/d/long-beach-1947-willys-cj2a-restoration/7531876534.html
“1947 Willys CJ2A. Original flat head 4 cylinder, 3 speed. Vehicle ran well when I garaged it 27 years ago. It has been in a closed garage since 1995 except for the last 18 months. Vehicle is complete but in need of a restoration. I primered it when I originally bought it to discourage rust but there is still some decay in the expected spots. Comes equipped with a “Overland Manufacturing Ordinance” hard top which is in OK condition. Asking $3500 or best offer.”
