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 .
Sure looks like a good price.
“1953 CJ3B Jeep Original Paint New Brakes New Radiator New Carburetor Original owners manual w/ spare key taped inside Have original wheels Very little rust”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $9500.
Looks nice.
“For sale is my 1946 Willys Jeep CJ-2A. Asking $9,500.00 o.b.o. The CJ-2A was the first civilian Jeep model ever produced after WWII. The Jeep is in great running and cosmetic condition. It had a frame off restoration about 5 years ago. Body, frame, transmission, transfer-case, axles are stock/original (However, I can’t prove that they are all 100% original to this Jeep or what you might call “matching numbers”, as there may have been major components replaced over the last 70 years of this Jeeps life). The engine has been replaced with a very strong running carbureted Chevrolet 4.3L V6 with a modern alternator and electric fuel pump.
The Jeep starts right up and runs strong, has a nice heavy clutch and a smooth shifting 3 speed transmission. The body is original and has had some new steel welded in on it (inevitably, there is some bondo to smooth out the patches) in various places but the work is well done and the Jeep looks very straight for an original 1946 body. There is no rust or bubbles anywhere on the body. The hat channels are perfectly solid. The frame is also rust free and 100% solid. All 5 wheels and tires are like new (installed last summer) with only about 25 miles on them (zero miles on the spare) since then. The tires are Firestone NDT military style. Other things done to the Jeep in the last year include: 4 new shocks, both transmission mounts, new shift boots, new fuel filter, new air filter/air cleaner, transfer-case front output yoke and seal, transfer-case pan gasket, all fluids (transmission, t-case, coolant, F/R diff’s, steering knuckles, steering box, and engine oil) changed.

Nice looking Jeepster.

“This is an exceptionally well preserved 1950 Jeepster. Original everything, but runs well and starts easily. If you are looking for a classic you can have fun with now, or if you want to restore it to a “like new” condition, this is the Jeepster for you. Comes with the original radio and heater. Floor matts appear to be original.
I can’t tell if the paint is original, but it does appear that the original color was red (Firewall is red) . The cowl is black, and looks great, but does not seem to be original. Top and side curtains are usable, but need to be replaces. The body is very solid. I can’t find evidence of repair, bond-o, rust issues, etc.
I don’t know a lot about the car’s history. It most recently had a Kansas title, and I was told it spent many years in use as a parade car.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7500.
This sits on a CJ-7 frame. Looks like they did a good job adapting the body to the frame.

Lots of interesting mods to the jeep. Is that paint or a wrap?
“This 1952 Willys has had several modifications, namely a reconfigured floor pan and cowl to accommodate the late-model Ford 302 small block V-8 and C-4 automatic transmission. Other modifications include power rack and pinion steering, power front disc brakes and chassis upgrades to accommodate the 33 inch Goodyear Wrangler tires on custom alloy rims. The engine is dressed with Ford Racing Billet accessories, MSD ignition, 4 barrel carburetor and ceramic coated headers and dual exhausts with chrome side pipes
