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 looks pretty good for a $500 jeep. It looks like it might be a M-38, though the driver’s side is missing the indents.

Over the past couple of days I’ve continued to make progress. I’ve got the headlights and taillights installed. The headlights had an unexpected complication: It turned out the modern 5 1/2″ bulb wouldn’t sit correctly into the 50 year old mount, so I had to encourage a better fit with my grinder.
NOTE: One set of items I don’t seem to have are front turn signals. I’d like to find a set of the cone turn signals that I believe were on a mid 60s Willys truck like these. If you know of any, please let me know where I can find some.
With the lights attached, I started the wiring process. My main goal is to make it as easy as possible to unattach the body for painting or repair purposes. So, for example, after installing the taillights I ran a flexible tube along the body using some sheet metal screws so that all the rear lighting stayed attached to body. Anytime wiring needs to cross from the body to the frame, engine, etc, I’m trying to bridge it with some kind of plug. So far so good.
UPDATE:**SOLD** Was $1600.
Here’s a great price on a running CJ-3B. It shouldn’t last long.
“The jeep has a power take off winch, Packard steering, Chevy 265 V-8 Engine that runs good. All tires have tubes in them and have the original owners manual. The jeep has been in the family since 1962 but can not find the title. Let me know if you have questions”
I suspect the seller forgot to list a price.
“1953 Willy’s Jeep with a strong Buick V6, Runs excellent, T150 synchronized 3 speed, T18 transfercase, PTO winch, spare tire and utility rack, all original body and frame, No rust, Minor electrical problem, Selling due to no time to tinker with and wife wants her garage back.

This CJ-2A looks like it’s in very good shape. Except for the diamond plating, it appears pretty stock.
