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: **SOLD** was $2500. Has a Boston top.
(03/31/2014) The motor runs.
“46 cj2a has an early 60,s F head runs , was in a barn for 10 years It has some cracked fuel lines to the tank but fired up from a can, tank seems to be fine. Needs front floor work and side body work, prob no for the purist due to the later engine but would make a nice summer driver , has rear PTO setup,”
UPDATE: Was in Chester, ID, for $4000. Now on eBay for much more.**No longer on eBay … Status Unknown**
This has a government plate of some type. I’m guessing forest service, but maybe USCG? The seller provides so description.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4500.
The seller is a little off on the details, but this is worth a look. Looks like a custom dash plate was added.

Jake’s jeep was handed down from his grandfather to his uncle and now to him. As you can see, it had undergone some unique modifications. Jake decided to refurbish the jeep, saving what he could of the modifications while returning other portions to a more stock look. I think it looks great. You can view higher resolution photos of this project here: http://imgur.com/a/r9dLW#0
Here’s Jake’s story:
Lil Beasty inside a gymnasium following its makeover.
Please as you read this take note of the doors, tub, tailgate, fenders, bumpers, windshield, cab, cab seat and maybe some other little things. I know the end product is not a STOCK cj2a but it looks good. I am trying to get info on who might have done this awesome metal work job 50+ years ago. Thanks for any info anyone can give me. 🙂
Okay, here is what I know about my great grandpa’s jeep. It is titled as a 1946 cj2a. Has the overhead valve f 134 engine in it. Had a column shift tranny but the side shifters have been welded so they cant move and a floor shifter was added. I was told he got the jeep in the 70s from a gas station in Michigan. He used it for 25 years to plow snow at a church. The plow that was used is shown in picture 1.
When he passed away my great uncle got the jeep and it sat in a barn for at least 10 years.—pictures 2-4a show this—.
We loaded the jeep up back on 2009 and that is when the project began. The jeep appears to have a custom body. Except the grill. We gt the jeep home and noticed it had heavy gauge steel. Everything is thicker then it should be except the grill.— thick fenders, body, doors and hood. They look to have been custom made by someone who knew what they where doing.
UPDATE: This runs and drives. Was $1650. Status Unknown.
“Runs and drives and ready to restore or make it what you want. Asking 1950.00 OBO
All original, 4cyl, PTO winch. Some surface rust on frame and running gear but still a very solid Jeep. CJ6 is a rare slightly longer version of a CJ5. Some floorboard rust mainly on passenger side and cancer spots on body. No trades.”
UPDATE: Status Unknown.
I think the top is my favorite part, though it is showing its age. The seat covers are unique, too.
“Selling this for my father since he is no longer able to drive. This was purchased from the military (Letterkenny Army Depot) in the late 1940s. It has 53,000 ORIGINAL MILES. Has now been started for 3-4 years. The photos were taken about 18 months ago. The tires are all flat but as far as the rest of the jeep goes, it pretty much looks like the photos. Call for more information and a history on the jeep.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3200
(12/06/2012) The top looks good. The steps have been repaired and modified.
“1953 willys cj3b, 134 fhead, pto winch, 4×4”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1850.
Buz forwarded this ad. The top sure looks good. Jeep runs and drives.
“1959 CJ 5 with original hurricane 4 cylinder engine that runs great. New fuel system from the tank to the carburetor. Needs brake cylinder, windshield and muffler. Aluminum top has been with Jeep since new so there is minimal rust. NO TRADE”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $10,5000.
For sale as a bundle or separately.
“The ‘CJ3A jeep runs great. Has the 4 cylinder F – Head engine. Interior is in OK shape. Minimal rust. No topper.”
The CJ5 also runs great. It also has the 4 cylinder F – Head engine. Interior needs some love. Topper needs glass replaced in a few windows. The blade is hydraulic and works great. Nice for cleaning snow. The winch is PTO driven and works nice as well.
Combo the two and save a few $’s.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $10,000
Looks good.
