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: Price dropped to $12,000.
This late model CJ-3B looks nice. The last photo looks like the Yakima area in the background, but the others do not.

“1965 CJ-3B is the latest production CJ-3B we know of which was sold domestically in the U.S. It was built in December 1964.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5900.
I believe this is some kind of replacement tub. It also has the advance adapter windshield latches.

“JEEP WILLYS, All original, 4-134 L 4 cylinders, 4 WD, Runs great, Hunting jeep will never get stuck, I bought in 1989 hunting out of it, many deer on the front bumper.”
It looks nice. Given the glove box, this might have a replacement body.

UPDATE: Still Available.
(04/17/2020) Nice looking restoration. It has a few cool extras (Hickey winch and ventilating windshield). My only quibble is that I wish the rear dually fenders were rounded rather than angled.

(07/17/2020) Gary shared this one. It needs a little work, as some of the lights don’t function as they should.

“Custom Willys Jeep $2,000”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $14,900.
Looks solid, but if it has a flat head engine, then the engine is not original.
“For Sale 1953 JEEP WILLYS CJ-3B FLAT FENDER with original 4 CYL FLAT HEAD ENGINE. Three Manual Transmission. Everything Works. Runs and drives great. No mechanical problems. No Rust. Beautiful paint Job. Must See to appreciate. Come test drive.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3100.
Runs, but rusty.
“53 willys Body all there but has rust. Frame running is great. Runs drives stops as it should.”
It looks like it needs more than “a good cleaning”.

(10/10/2019) Not sure how much value is here.
https://sfbay.craigslist.org/nby/pts/d/douglas-city-mitsubishi-j3-jeep-diesel/7189321947.html
“Mitsubishi J3 Diesel RHD Military Jeep.
License built by Mitsubishi. 4 Cylinder diesel from the factory. Built for the Japanese army (and others) from the 1950’s until the late 1990’s.
Restoration project. Has sat for a number of years. Complete and original. Rust in the usual Jeep places (footwell). Frame is straight and solid. Motor currently does not run but turns over with compression…. Being a diesel I am sure it would run if you hooked it up to a fuel tank, not had time to mess with it. Parts are available from a number of suppliers. Even has the original Japanese NDTs still on it……. Very cool and unique Jeep.”
The body has had some repairs, but looks like a good price for a late model CJ-3B.

“1952 Willys Jeep no motor no trans no transfer case was going to build a mud truck but lost interest”
It probably ran when there were more parts, too. 🙂
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/281415739914026/
“Cj3b. Ran when parked. Good windshield frame, hood, grill, and cowl. Make offer.”
It will need a body kit at the very least.
