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 .

The engine ran when parked (6 years ago), and is not stuck. The tires hold air. The running gear is in ok shape. The body is in rough condition. 16″ OEM wheels. The tires hold air. This Jeep has been modified and was used as a hunting truck. Has built in tow bar (uses a 1 7/8″ ball). What you see in the pictures is what you get. THERE IS NO TITLE.”
UPDATE: Still Available
(04/20/2014) Given the winch, the rims and other parts, there’s some value here.
“This is a good Jeep worth fixing. It ran and drove but has been sitting a while. The body is rough but fixable, the frame is good, and the 4×4 works. Engine should start with a battery and gas but no promises. It leaked coolant at the thermostat last time it ran. It will need carb work to idle properly. No brakes. They used to work but pedal now goes to the floor. Has a newer radiator in it.
231ci Buick v6 swapped in from a ’81 Regal. Original trans and transfer case. 2″ lift leaf springs. 15×10″ wheels with old 35″ tires. Good winch, good clutch, good top, good windshield, decent roll bar.”
http://nh.craigslist.org/cto/4731714789.html
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
This has an unusual top. It has the suicide door style.
” Picked this up off a ranch in Montana. hadnt run in years, replaced the gas tank, fuel line,changed the oil, rebuilt the generator,and carb, bled the brakes It started {smokes a little} runs, drives, and stops. 4 wheel drive works, all gear oils were up but could be changed. The cloth covered wiring isnt so good any more but things like lights and gauges seem to work.but it should be rewired.
There is some rust in the body support brackets and cabin floor but its not extensive. The tub is in good shape over all, the drivers seat is not original. It has the 16 inch tires.
It came with the Aluminum “Arctic” brand top you see on it. The doors all open, and the top itself is pretty solid if you wanted to keep it.”
UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was $4500.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4000
Has updated motor.
“CJ-3 1950 classic Willys Jeep. This Jeep has the F-head engine, 4 wheel drive, 3 speed transmission, Hi/low transfer case, and runs great! No leaks. Has title. Well cared for. Great for country roads and off-roading. Call and make an offer.”
Listed as a ’46, it looks like a 3A.
“Titled as a 1946 but has a later Fhead engine, later windshield frame so who knows. Was bought as part of a package deal in order to get a CJ3B. The engine sounds pretty good, the gas is really old so smokes a little, newer exhaust, new plugs, wires, filters, oil change etc. Has no rust, has good brakes, has a Saginaw steering box, runs and drives well but needs some “tinkering” Would be a good hunting Jeep. restore or leave as is… cash is king…;”
http://westslope.craigslist.org/cto/4727114005.html
Has some mods.
“This is (as registered) a 1951 Jeep Willys CJ-2a 4×4. It has a buick V6, 3spd tran, dana 25 and dana 27 running gear. I put a new wiring harness, gauges, LED brake and turn lights, new seat coverings and a por-15 paint job. Included is the tire carrier, spare tire, two gas cans, all spare parts and paint and the rifle rack in the middle. This jeep was used for hunting and is extremely reliable but it also looks good to drive into town. It is currently registered (Nov 2015). You can either drive it home (45-50 mph and a 5 gallon gas tank) or tow it home behind your tow vehicle.
I have seen the other Willys for sale on Craigslist and know that the $3600 for a fully running, registered and reliable Willys is priced to sell. Cash only, no shipping, no trades.”
