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 $2000
(06/29/2010) It’s got some nice features, but it is missing the motor and tranny. It also has a bobcat fiberglass hood.

(02/11/2012) There might be some good value here, though it needs work of some kind.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000
(01/03/2012) I’m wondering if this is a fiberglas body? The driver’s seat and steering has been moved to the middle.

(01/23/2012) This looks like a good price. It is still 6 volt.
“This is a very fun and reliable toy. 4 cylinder motor, was government owned for most of it’s life so it was well maintained. Has some rust but not much. 6 volt system all works. i have parts for a full top and doors that need to be repaired. this is a lot cheaper than a rhino, terex or the other side by sides and you can drive it on the street too. License is current. it has had a lot of parts replaced, it is ready to use.”
UPDATE: Was $6900. **SOLD**
It appears solid, but also appears a mixed bag of parts.
“This jeeps runs great it’s a little stock,restoration and custom….military wheels and tires 4 cyl motor three speed tran…only serious offers please!!”
After closer inspection this looks in good shape, despite the crazy body.

The seller is selling the body/fenders/tailgate/windshield.
“I am selling the body to my 1952 cj3a minus the grill. I am restoring my jeep back to show room condition and this body will not work. If you have a project jeep you need parts for or you are building a rock crawler this body might be what you need. The windshield frame, tailgate and hood are still in good condition. The flat fenders need sheet metal work on the mounting bracket locations. The body tub needs work but the firewall, dash and top cowl are in good shape. Its the floor that needs the work. The body panels are reusable depending on your needs. The body parts are all stamped WILLYS as well. I will take $650.00 CASH ONLY. I am keeping the grill and I will not sell individual pieces. A new windshield alone is $600.00 so $650.00 is my bottom dollar. 660-676-9707”

Needs new body tub, suspension, brakes, wiring, etc. Original owner’s manual and sales literature included. $1,750 obro. Also available, companion Bantam trailer $500.”
It doesn’t run at the moment.
“A true barn find, this 1952 CJ3A has been sitting in storage since 1987. I purchased this jeep last Feb in hopes of restoring it. There are a few pictures the day I found it. The motor had anti-freeze in the whole time it was in storage and the motor turns over by hand with a little effort. Has a very rare and hard to find original factory option rear seat. Has an after market heater. The original steering wheel is gone and someone replaced it with I think to be a Thunderbird steering wheel from the 60’s. the steering column is galvanized pipe. from the picture you can see the rust in the passenger floor and tub wall. There is a crack in the frame in a very common place where cracks form on these jeeps and is a very easy fix. Windsheild has a crack in it. Since I have owned it I have only removed the hood, windshield, front bumper/tow and side mirror. I have to move out of my storage and I have no place to keep this awesome jeep. The title I have is from 1970 and is signed. I will sign a bill of sale along with this title. I have couple of rims and tires that go with it. I’m not at my storage at time of this listing. I belive the milage to be 45.543 or it’s 55.543. Has a radio that looks like someone cut the dash to place it in and an hole in the cowl for an antenna. Has 12 volt convert and tailgate is welded but can be cut to open. Does not Run atm I’m sure a carb rebuilt, clean fuel bowl and flush of gas tank it would star and run. I just don’t have the place to work on it. You can txt me if you like or call for anyother information you need. Eight One Seven Eight Nine Seven Eight Five One Four. my name is Kent. might trade for gun and cash. M1A/HK Glock Etc. Give me a shout. I also may have some WWII jerry cans for sale and couple early 60’s or 70’s jerry cans also.”
