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 .

(06/10/2012) The paint job isn’t all that nice (especially the engine compartment) and I suspect that isn’t the original bumper, but otherwise this looks pretty stock.
“all original, flat head, 4 cylinder, 3 speed, runs good.”
Needs a little tinkering and the body has been patched/repaired, but it runs and drives.
“Up for sale is my pride and joy very much hate to sell it but times change. the willys has new brakes and lines exhaust, tires and soft top and have two hard tops to go with it new interstate 6 volt battery and starter,

This looks solid. It’s listed as a 1946 CJ-2A. It’s got different rims on the front and back. The ones on the back, m151 rims, may give it a narrower track in the rear than the front. I’m not sure what effect that might have on driving it.
“New rebuilt engine, L134 F Head (less than 20 miles on engine).
New Top, New Tires, New Battery, NewAlternator and New Fuel pump. To many new parts to list.
Transmission and Transfer case perfect running order.

Unclear if it runs.

(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”

This stainless flattie has an unusual dash and seats.
“This is a handcrafted Stainless Steel Jeep made in the Philippines! The car was imported into the United States in 1979 by a man named Wesley Carrell.
Wesley was in the military and stationed in the Philippines just after the Vietnam war. While he was there he fell in love with the Stainless steel Jeeps that the locals were crafting. The CJ3 Jeeps left over from the Vietnam war rusted very badly, so the locals started to make stainless steel bodies that wouldn’t rust in their externally humid climate.
Wesley paid $5500 + shipping and taxes in 1979 to bring this Jeep home to Mississippi. Once he had the Jeep home he paid to have the brakes to be converted from mechanical to Hydraulic. He also paid to have a 4 cylinder Ford Pinto engine with automatic transmission installed. The Jeep does come with a soft top, however it is a little old. It has a few tears.
Wesley drove and enjoyed this Jeep until 2003 when he passed away. I bought the Jeep from his sister whom inherited the Jeep. When I bought the Jeep I had every intention of restoring the it, however I have too many project cars and wont be able to put work into the Jeep anytime soon. I just bought a 1970 GTO Judge which will be taking up my spare time.
The body is mounted on a 1959 Willys Jeep frame. The Jeep runs, drives, and stops under its own power. However to will need a tune up or it will possibly need the carburetor rebuilt before it can be driven anywhere.
The Jeep can be driven onto a trailer or car carrier!
This is a once in a lifetime opportunely, don’t let this pass you by! You need this Jeep for your collection! ”
