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.
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 $4500.
This needs some work.
“All original 4 cylinder engine, runs good.””
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4000
(09/07/2012) Parked when running 35 years ago. This is a very stock jeep with the belt pulley PTO. It also comes with a bunch of new parts. However, it is also a rusty jeep that hasn’t moved in three decades.
“1952 CJ3A Willys Jeep
This Jeep is about as original and complete as you will find. I bought it from the family that bought it new. It was mainly used for farm use and has been sitting for 35 years. as a result it only has 36,000 miles on it. It has the flat head four cylinder “Go Devil” motor that is still a 6 volt electric system. two speed transfer case and three speed manual transmission. This Jeep was also equipped with the factory optional rear PTO system. The Jeep has never been restored or modified. It has a lot of parts with it you almost never find. seat frames, frame for the soft top, door frames, mirrors, under seat tool box with the willys stamped lid. I have the optional under door side steps, and the snap on grill screen, to keep weeds out of the radiator while mowing. The crown jewel piece I have is the adator that allows you to run belt driven items, like a grits or saw mill with the PTO. I even have the original owners manual for it. I have not tried to start the motor, It ran and drove before it was set up. but the last time it was started was 35 years ago. The only thing I have done is knocked off some of the surface rust and put them areas in primer just to persevere it, and that is all I have been doing too it. I have a new baby on the way so I not going to have the time to continue working on it in the near future, and for a while. and would rather not see it sit. I was planing on fully bringing this Jeep back and keeping it as a result I have bought up quite a few spare parts. I have an flathead engine a frame with front and rear axles, extra generator, carburetor, starter, manifolds, steering column, hood, front grill, hubs, four extra stock rims and other misc things. Over a grand in spare parts alone. Price for everything is $4000″
This has an overdrive, runs and stops. MIght not be a bad price.
“1951 Willys CJ3A. Well hammered/ rusty but runs better than it looks. Has overdrive, good tires and brakes. Driven regular. Hate to sell. Vince 818-371-5377located Mojave,CA”

(03/01/2012) I can’t tell if the paint is uneven or some type of Cammo.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000

This is a pretty stock jeep, but might make a nice restoration project. Give how stock it is, I’m surprised to see it has the mid windshield piece.

Bill from Lime Street Carriages is selling this CJ-3A. If you are looking for a CJ-3A that’s in great condition then I’d take a serious look at this one. Don’t forget to tell him you saw it on eWillys.
