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 .
This has an f-head.

(06/05/2017) Craig found this unique wooden bodied 3A. The seller has a sense of humor, calling the jeep “Termite’s Delight”.
“Take a look at this 1951 four-wheel drive Willy’s Jeep! Custom designed handcrafted wood body. Great show vehicle. Vehicle specs: 134 c.u. flat head, 4 cylinder engine. Runs good. Comes with canvas top and side doors. Also comes with a six foot steel plow, electric winch operated. Clean title.”

Both are projects.

Appears worth a look.
“Up for sale is our 1950 Willys CJ-3A, it has been sitting for a while and going to need some TLC. Was running when it was parked a few years ago.”
https://wyoming.craigslist.org/cto/6173181972.html

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
Hasn’t been driven in a few years.
“1950 Willys Jeep, was last driven 3 years ago. Has a clear title. Many new parts and work including:
-Master cylinder, wheel cylinders, brake lines
-Radiator, hoses
-Alternator w/ internal regulator
-Rear shocks
-Cap, rotor, plug wires, coil
-Gas tank, fuel pump
-Seat frame
-Entire floor replaced
-Good tires and rims
Since the Jeep has sat a few years, I hooked up a battery and it cranked right over. But 2 valves are stuck “up”, I pulled the side cover and can see which ones they are. I began removing the head. Once you unbolt the head you can push them up/down to free them up. I have another Jeep restoration taking up time.
Once valves are free this would be a great running project. Good frame, shifts smooth, nice windshield.”
UPDATE: Still Available.

The auction is July 8th.
“This 1952 Willys Jeep will be offered for sale at the McGregor Loins auction Saturday July 8, 2017 located at the McGregor Community Center, auction starting at 10:00am
This 1952 Willys Jeep was reported to be in running condition when put into storage several years ago. The body is very sound for the age and should be a candidate for a full restore. We have installed a new battery and the engine does crank over but so far does not fire. We do have a clean MN Title.
A non stock air cleaner has been installed at some time in the past, the round addition to the hood is to accommodate the air cleaner.”

“Willy’s cj 1952 motor all original $4,000 obo runs great !”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1250.
(05/17/2017) There could be value here. Not a very tall roll bar.
“49 willys. V8 project. Body is in excelent shape No cancer.
Everything here but motor and trans.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
Hard to say how much value is here.
“For Sale: Willys CJ3A open jeep. No title. No data plate. No known history on this jeep.
This jeep is a rolling chassis, complete, less motor, transmission and transfer case. I do have the driveshafts, and the suspension and axles are complete. Wheels are 15’s.
The Jeep body Tub is extremely rough, borderline for parts–repaired and re-repaired over 70 years of hard hunting and ranch life. The frame is solid, definitely restorable. Tub has had the tailgate and tailgate hinges removed and a piece of steel was welded in place of the tailgate. Front clip is clean. I do have a stamped grill with headlight buckets for it. This Jeep is equipped with Warn lock-out hubs on the front axle that function perfectly. The rear axle retainer caps are missing some of the retaining bolts.
First $860 for the entire jeep takes it. All four 15 inch wheels hold air and will roll right up on to your trailer–I have a tractor and can push it up for you. This is a long way from drive-able, but a very good starter.
CASH ONLY. I can deliver for gas and mileage, but will only do so after the jeep has been paid for in full in person.
Thanks”

Runs and drives.
“Runs and drives, you can drive it where you want today. Original 4 cylinder engine, 3 speed manual transmission. Mostly original except wheels/tires and seats. Recently tuned up the engine and it runs good. Newer gas tank. All gauges seem to work except gas gauge. Original 6V wiring system. Odometer says 50K 5 digit and seems to work. I don’t have a top, basically what you see in the pictures is what you get. I took the Jeep on a trade deal, I was considering very strong to keep it around but things have changed and I now am looking to sell it. Clean title ready to sell.”
https://lansing.craigslist.org/cto/6170933387.html
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was No Price.
Runs.
“1950 Red Willy’s Jeep, runs great, mostly stocked, rare rear seat, most gauges stock. Usual rust.”

Has some updates.
“For Sale 1952 Willy’s CJ2A
Manual 3 Speed 4 x 4”
UPDATE: **SOLD**
“Here is an unmodified Willys flathead Jeep with very little rust and no patch panels. The only rust I have noticed is in the outside fender steps and one small area on top of the rear wheel well. The foot, gas tank and tool box wells are solid with no repairs. The wheels and buzz saw have been sand blasted and power coated. The original L134 flathead engine runs strong and all 6v electricals work including the gauges and horn. Turn signals have been added but the original wiring harness has been left intact. Vacuum windshield wiper works (except when going up hills). Transmission has an oil leak; shifts well with no noises. Steering is tight; brakes need adjustment. Clutch rattles when pedal is depressed but works fine.
Includes a complete buzz saw assembly that attaches to the rear of the jeep. It is driven off a flat belt pulley on the rear PTO. The PTO drive shaft is bent but still works. It comes with an engine governor which needs a control arm. The speed control handle is still present on the dash. Also comes with top bows for a soft top.”
It’s a project.
“Needs finished. 1954 willys with some extra parts. Rebuilt engine.make offer”
https://zanesville.craigslist.org/cto/6171067445.html
Seller believes this was in the military. Maybe it has a gov plate.
“1951 Willys jeep needs finished has never had a title registered due to being used in military”
https://zanesville.craigslist.org/cto/6167106564.html
This one is rough.
“Rescue me!!! This old jeep needs brought back to life. If you have the knowledge,time & money. All parts there. Needs serious body work. Flat 4 motor. Was just informed motor does run. Do not want to scrap it.”
https://hudsonvalley.craigslist.org/cto/6167881606.html
Includes a variety of parts.
“This has been on this farm for 40 years and been my toy and tractor. I can no longer give it the attention that it needs. I started to fix it up a year ago but lost my health. I put new Edelbrock carburetor, high output coil and new electronic distributor. It’s got a late model 3 speed transmission full sincro. The tub is in rough shape but running gear is good. It’s got a 44 rear end and upgraded front to handle the 327 cubic in stock engine. I have a fair amount of parts that go with it. A bunch of chevy parts, terra tires and extra wheels plus a lot of other things I will throw in. 2 Holley carborators extra Transmission and other auto parts.
I would like to make this a package deal because because I’m downsizing for a move.
I’m asking $3000 boo for a lot of stuff. I’ll try to show pictures but not sure I will get it all.”
