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 .
I don’t follow brochure values at all and couldn’t tell you how rare, or not, these are.
“I have 3 brochures for sale. 1st is a WILLYS MOTOR INC. CJ-3B , 2nd is a WILLYS CJ-5 , 3rd is a KELLY STEEL-CAP brochure they are mint and selling for $100.00 each or $250.00 for all 3. thank you”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000
(01/06/10) Those are some great old slot rims, with nice tires on them. There’s also a good engine and updated brakes. The glass looks good. The rust situation doesn’t appear too bad from the pics. I’d say this isn’t a bad price.
“’52 Willy’s flat fender jeep, CJ3A. 5″ Lift, 3″ springs and 2″ shackles. New 34″ x 9.5″ Super Swampers. GM 231ci V6. 11′ Front drum brake kit. This baby is a little rough and will need work to be put back on the road… but it runs, drives, and stops. Running gear is stock, 4wd works. It also comes with a top w/doors, but plastic is yellowed and may be junk?? Has been on NON-OP w/DMV for about 10yrs now. MAY be interested in a partial trade… I really want a Springfield XD 45, full, compact, and/or tactical considered.”
UPDATE: Price set at $2000 (was make offer).
This includes an overdrive.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3300
(02/12/09) This CJ-2A has a number of custom details. The engine compartment looks nicely laid out. This jeep also sports the enlarged windshield; I’m not certain if this is custom or an aftermarket product?? .
“1947 Willys jeep with Chevy 283 small block (runs great), 3 speed, NO RUST,set up for duel optima batteries, rewired the whole jeep, took all the old nuts and bolts and replaced them with new,full roll cage,costom bumpers, holds matching (new) 33×14.50 spare tire and Hi-lift jack mount, $600 Holey truck avenger, $800 clutch, Exhaust, rhino liner tub, excelent front seats with back bench seat (seat belts), Custom windsheild and doors that lock, custom Cooper top, Racho suspension (leaf springs, shocks, shackles) Dana 30 front with disc brakes and locker, Dana 44 rear,too much to remember but I have reciepts for allmost everything I’ve done to it in the last 14 years. I’ve only put around 200 miles on it since I’ve owned it which means everything is in like new condition except for paint has brush scratches, 2 ez fix dents (nothing bigger than a lemon). Dana 44 left side axle shaft is bent and needs to be replaced (not the whole axle assembly). Theres a lot more but cant remember everything. Point is.. if you like the jeep and you want something classic that is a major head turner for the family to enjoy for years to come like my family and I have enjoyed. It’s the most reliable old jeep in the world:) I used to put car seats in it and me and my girls would be off finding those hidden fishing holes and camp sites. I thought I would own this jeep for ever but I lost my good job and now I’m under paid and have to make big sacrifices. I’ve already done everything that needs to be done to an old jeep so now all you have to do is make me an offer and steal it. ”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $1500
(11/22/09) No indication as to how long ago it was parked.
“1947 ran when I parked it. Needs some workcj2a I have the split window that goes with it.”

If you are a regular reader of the CJ-3B page, you have likely seen Roberto’s drawings and maybe saw his CJ-3B, too. At CJ-3A.com you’ll see his work at the top left. If you haven’t, I’ve add a few images of his drawings and his jeeps below for your enjoyment. You can find Roberto in a variety of places on the internet, including his own website, his blog, another blog and online store. He lives in Spain, but I think is recognized, at least by old school Willys lovers, world-wide. Thanks for sharing and keep up the great work!
Here’s some pics of Roberto’s CJ-3B and I believe that’s his CJ-3A (I didn’t get any info on that)?
Here are some of Roberto’s drawings.
The first is a comic for “4×4 Story Magazine Spécial Jeep” issue 26, Mai-Juin 2009. It is a French bimonthly magazine, based on the adventures of collectors and restorers of jeeps. Original size, 21 cms. x 14,8 cms.
This is a commissioned drawing ordered cartoon for a French customer, over cardboard. The characters which appear on this are the customer, driving his Willys jeep “Follow Me”, from WW2. He´s accompanied by his wife and son. Acrylics over carboard. Dimmenssions: 42 x 29.7 cms.
This is a logo drawn for a page on jeep Willys MB/Ford GPW of World War II. Pencil and computer on paper.
Here’s a full list of links:
Quinn asked if I knew of any 3 lever boots for a tc & overdrive. I said I didn’t, so he approached his local upolster to have him build something. If you have the same problem, it’s a good solution. He also had his guy tuck the corners of a CJ-5 bikini top to fit nicely. Good ideas and thanks for sharing! You can see more pics of Quinn’s Jeep here.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6500.
The year is probably wrong in the Ad.
“1950 willys runs great t/c rebuilt like new 31″ tires”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on ebay
Though made in 2003, it looks pretty retro.

The truck looks solid. The ad includes a video.
“Still lookin for a possible trade for the willys. anything that is say pre 1970, runs and drives, and is of comparable or maybe lessor value. has to be at least equally cool though. let me know, fivepenniespress@yahoo.com doesnt hurt to ask.”
