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: Back on eBay

(05/23/2012) “The jeep is in great running condition, and still has the original L-134 inline four cylinder that starts right up and drives, no problems. The jeep shifts three on the tree. Two wheel drive. Shows 97 miles on the odometer. Always stored inside and the condition reflects that. It was partially restored by the previous owner, and received new paint and upholstery. Tires are in great shape. Let me know if you would like to come and see it.”
Bruce wanted to share this “Form H1-3-59 Jeep Gala advertising booklet”.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
The outside looks a little rough, but the inside looks good. It’s an ex-fire chief jeep.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $600.
“1957 Willys jeep with great off road wheels and tires. need transmission and engine and some fix up, but makes great off road vehicle. No title”
No pics provided. I believe the latest known production date for a DJ-3A is 1965, so not sure what this is. Given the seller thinks the engine is a ‘1945 CJ3A’, it will takes some pics to sort this out.
“I have a 1967 DJ3A that needs to go, it was a project that never got done so it’s in pieces thats why I am selling as parts. ALL must go in one lot, this was the standard 2wd version with a flat head. I also have the drive train minus the engine of a 45 CJ3A. Sorry I do not have pictures to share right now”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
This is still 2WD. The cage is probably a CJ-3B or CJ-5 cage. The hurricane rims look good. Likely was a convertible DJ-3A.
“Willys jeep 1957 2wd with title $1,500.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000
(05/02/2012) What is that tank on the back? This looks very restorable.
“4 Cylinder, 3 speed on column, 2 wheel drive,
13 inch tires, real good body, new tires, new brake system,
runs and drives, still needs restoration work.”
UPDATE: Still Available
(08/19/2011) Bob spotted this DJ-3A that was mistakenly listed as a Jeepster.
“Selling a project 1956 Willys Overland Jeepster (DJ3A) that I just don’t have the time for. It hasn’t been started in a few years, but it did run before being stored.
Has the canopy top frame, w/no canvas. You’ll need a car trailer to pick it up.
Have a title in hand. Please call Allen for more details – 330.428.2288 CASH ONLY, NO TRADES.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3750.
Maybe this is part DJ? The bottom piece of the front of the windshield looks like it has ripples, which is unusual.

(04/07/2012) This looks like a DJ Body and other parts that are definitely not MB.

This was for sale in Oregon for a while. Much more info here.
“1960 DJ3A Chevy V6 Automatic. Showcar condition.”
The seller is looking to sell this to someone who will properly restore it.
“Due to moving back to Germany i am offering my DJ3A (1963 with title) and a CJ3A chassis with drive train. I really want to give it to the right person. I have both units here in Ft Lauderdale and have to move them quick. About 1500.00 for both but any offer is welcome. The trailer is brand new and can be bought for 2K as well. Engines turn over, DJ3A needs suspension, brakes, floor, tub, fender and door restore as well as upholstery. Not a quick fix. But one of few!”
Email sven.marine at gmail.com if you have a serious interest.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
It runs, but is a bit odd. The body might be from a DJ.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1800
I don’t see to many surreyized CJ-2As.
“1948 Willys CJ2A in pretty good shape. Does not have a title. I have not started it in about 8 years, but have oil in the cylinders. It was converted to 12 volt. Transfer case or 4 wheel drive works.I have the doors, but are not shown installed. One window is cracked in one of the doors. Have been meaning to restore and get new parts to tighten up the steering and suspension. It needs brake work. Two new tires on the back. Have an extra seat and two old heaters to go with it. Stored in the barn for the last 16 years.”
No pics provided. This might be a DJ.
“I have a 1960 Willys CJ3 with working 4×4, working wench and remote with about 6 feet of cable, has a stereo and a bikini top. The paint has been redone last year it is camoflauge with a clear coat, good looking jeep. Makes an excellent off road vehicle, I have yet to go anywhere that it hasn’t gotten me through, would be a great deer lease or ranch vehicle. It has antique tags good thru Feb 2013. The windshield is cracked but you can still see through it very easily, good tires.
