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 .

UPDATE: Price dropped to $3000.
(01/18/2011) This has a fiberglass tub. It does need some work.
“Pretty solid Jeep. Motor runs very good. Top is very good. 31×10.5 mud terrain treadwrights. only downside is the fiberglass tub. Needs very little done to it. What it does need are spring bushings and shackles which are pretty cheap and the storage bin that the passenger seat is mounted to. Was also converted to a 12v system but I think it still has the original generator, so it has a little bit of a hard time keeping a charge in the 12v battery on short drives. has original wheels. I have doors also. I just never mounted them, because I saw no purpose. $3000 obo.”

UPDATE: Steve and I believe these are the Parkette Molds. They appear to have sold.
You don’t see these appear for sale often. The CJ-3B Molds are especially unusual.
“Old set of molds to build Willys fiberglass bodies
One floor pan mold in good shappe.
One High hood body mold, needs to be reworked, wooden supports rotted and broken
One high hood grille mold
One low hood grille mold
One high hood hood mold
One low hood hood mold
One tailgate mold
Couple other misc. molds”
UPDATE: Was $2500. **SOLD**
(05/26/2010) This was rebuilt with a fiberglass tub.
“1945 Willys CJ2A $3500. 1st Year civilian Model. Has been rebuilt. Fiberglass tub/fenders. Engine rebuilt last year to run unleaded fuel. Tranny and transfer case rebuilt 2 years ago. Went through axles, repacked wheel bearings and replaced brakes. Added blinkers and roll bar. Rebuilt charging system and is now 12V. New tires and wheels Seats redone as well. Looks and drives nice All work done in last 2 years.”
UPDATE: Now on Craigslist
(05/26/2010) Imagine my surprise when I looked at the last of the many images of this Jeep and learned this was a fiberglass tub! You don’t see many CJ-3B Fiberglass Tubs.

Here are a few pics.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6900
Has an unusual body. My first thought was unibody, maybe fiberglass(?), as I can’t see seams between the front clip and the body. In fact, the hood appears to be a normal sized low hood that sits a top a solid CJ-3B clip (fenders/body/grille all molded/welded together).
“1948 Jeep Willys, 289l V-8, auto trans, B&M shifter, low miles, new interior and upholstery, soft top included, all terrain tires, aux. fuel tank rack, alloy wheels, tow bar, clean paint, runs excellent.”
This looks like a nice rig with a bobcat hood.
“1964 Buick 225 V-6. 3 speed w/overdrive.Nice jeep. Some dings and chipped paint. collector plates. All receipts. have rear seat and extra parts. Good K-Line soft cover. Call Jack or Tiffany 360 482 5228”

(11/03/2010) This sports a fiberglass body and an unusual (probably fiberglass) hood. I’m not sure what the axles are from.
