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 .
It’s a mix of CJ parts.

“Great winter project. Prefer to sell as a package but will separate tub. Will need to be trailered… nothing is bolted together.
– CJ2A tub… no title, new front pan
– CJ3A frame… good condition
– Roll cage
– Axles are just rollers… D25/41
– 2.5″ Rancho springs/shocks
– Tires are good… 50% tread
I have enough parts to put together a complete body.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4000.
Both are projects.
“Two projects. One 1947 CJ2A mostly original. Reproduction windshield frame, Tiger top, 10,500lb winch, two sets of wheels and tires. Runs and drives. Extra transmission.
Second jeep is a disassembled 1952 CJ3A with an M38A1 frame. 2001 4.3v6 from a manual Silverado. SM 465 transmission with Novak short shaft kit. Warn overdrive from Herm. Dana 18 transfer case. New CJ5 tank. New CJ5 leaf springs (2-1/2” lift) stock axles. Parts list goes on. Prefer to sell everything as a package but may consider piecing out. Lowball offers will be ignored.”
Has an updated engine.

“1952 Willys CJ3A Auburn Jeep-a-Trench Trencher Jeep.
Project – must sell to save this iron. I will consider fair offers. Early Auburn Trencher wheel drive, on a 1952 Willys CJ3A.
No Title. Low miles. NE Ohio. Akron / Canton Area. This Trencher was used to dig irrigation ditches on a golf course in Northern Ohio. It was sitting outdoors when I saved it.
Frame is in great shape. Leaf springs are ok. Body is pretty good (my opinion), No filler. Could use new front floor of course. Half cab top bows – no canvas, no door frames, Monarch Governor with handle and cable. Motor and Transmission are locked, I disconnected the drive shaft to roll it. I removed all brake drums also, found one rear hub was cracked so I replaced both rears hubs. Green narrow 16″ jeep wheels go with it, see last picture.”
May be rough.

“Willy’s Jeep 1955 Antique. Great rebuild project, non-running.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000.
(10/17/2019) Has a pto winch. Body will need work.
“I have a CJ3a That actually runs. The body needs replacing. I put a few brake lines on it and got the brakes working. It has a cheesy electrical fuel pump currently but it will crank up run drive a stop. I haven’t cranked it up since july. The Pto winch has all the parts. This is a good project jeep that needs fully restoring. I do have a clean title.”
UPDATE: Status Unknown. Was $6500.
The seller has provided a very complete description. Includes an overdrive.
“I am selling my used driver quality Willys Jeep CJ-3A. This is a great “drive-it-like-it-is” rig. Starts, runs, drives, and stops exactly as it should; even the parking brake works (could use some adjustment though to hold on a hill…). It’s not perfect, won’t win any concours, but a solid driver. Most of the work you usually have to do when you drag home an old jeep has been done. It’s been driven on the road as well having seen off-roading adventures at the NH Trail Ride and Rausch Creek PA. Used but not abused as they say. Tough to find solid non-rotted originals like this in New England. I can be tough to get a hold of on the phone based on my work schedule so texts and emails are preferred.
The Saturn overdrive allows easy cruising speeds of 55 mph (or better?). The original 3A motor was pulled previously and replaced with a fresher MB motor out of a genset. Continue reading
Interesting oil filter bracket mounting idea. Perhaps it will hold up better than the stock setup, which sometimes cracks (I’ve had two of the stock ones crack).

“Two parts jeeps. Will sell as a package or individual parts. Please inquire if you have questions about a specific part, chances are I have it.”

“1947 Jeep Willy Project”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $9500.
(05/31/2019) This is a CJ-2A (or possible 3A) that’s had a CJ-3B body added to it.
https://spokane.craigslist.org/cto/d/carmen-high-hood-jeep/7020966810.html

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5000.
(10/11/2019) Looks like a great little jeep. It’s listed as a 2A, but may be a 3A. This was previously listed here.
“Willys CJ2A for sale. Powered by 1973 Ford Pinto 2.0L engine. Comes with 2 soft tops and doors, bikini top, 9500 lb winch. Engine and transmission overhauled. Great vehicle for driving the woods.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2700.
(10/06/2019) Body seems in at least decent shape.
“1950 Jeep Willys cj3 project”
UPDATE: **SOLD**
$2500 each or $4000 for both. The 3B has the passenger side vent, and no script on the hood, so it might be later 60s model. The ‘1945’ has rear floaters, but might be a 3A.
“Two (2) Willys Jeep projects, 1945 & 1954 both are complete less motors, these are barn find projects, Wife says I have too many projects and need to down size, asking $2,500.00 each or $4,000.00 as a package deal. May consider trade for a good welder.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3800.
Runs.
“Great project jeep: Owned for 44 years, this jeep used on dairy farm for 17 years and then put in storage. 4 cylinder, flathead engine, runs smooth. Has original old-school locking hubs. Needs brakes. A great project for street or off-road use.”
Looks in good shape.

“For sale 1953 Willys Jeep CJ 3A. Runs great lots of new parts including brakes distributor tires and wheels plugs wires starter seats gauges gas tank and much more. Rebuilt transmission Asking 6500.”
Looks like something has been added under the hood near the driver’s side headlight that keeps the hood from closing all the way.
