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 .

Another project Colin wanted to share with readers was this CJ-3A he restored. As I understand it, this was his project before he purchased this DJ-3A Surrey. After purchasing the Surrey, he turned the CJ-3A project over to his son who seems to be doing just fine with it.
Colin writes, “Here are some photos of our CJ3A project. It is actually by serial number a 1952, but wasn’t sold until 1953, so was titled as a 53 (Pretty typical of Willys products). I bought it in late 2006 and it hadn’t run in about 6 years. After getting it running, I decided to do a body off restoration on it. The mechanicals were pretty good, with a new engine with less than 500 miles on it, and it had been upgraded to 12 volts and larger 11 inch brakes. It had a CJ2A windshield on it, which I prefer over the CJ3A style. It was yellow and my wife is not fond of yellow. I found the original Luzon Red paint underneath the dash, so decided to paint it Luzon Red to match the Luzon Red of our Jeepster. Work progressed and I took a break from it and in December 2009, I found the Surrey for sale. At that point, I couldn’t pass on the Surrey and our oldest son, Lee said he would take over the CJ3A, but he wasn’t going to paint it red. I had already powdercoated the wheels and put new NDT 600×16 tires on the rolling chassis. There was still some body work that needed to be done before painting. Lee finished up the bodywork and we got the paint done 3 weeks ago. We started putting it back together and now we only need to do some of the small details and the wiring to be done. The latest photos don’t give a true color, but it is sort of a Butternut yellow or beige.”
Sebastian writes, “He is asking $5000. The car looks great, and the engine was totally rebuilt a few years back. As far as I could see everything was original.”
Matt spotted this. If I interpret this correctly, it includes a 1948 body and a fiberglass tub and other parts. This might be a good price.
“1947 CJ2A on wheels and 1948 CJ2A body with fiberglass tub. 2.3 ltr Ford Mustang motor and all brackets and plates to mount into a CJ2A body. Engine runs great and the 48 body has no rust on the hood, fenders, and grill. Will only sell all together.”
