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 .

“Selling my willys. When I bought it I was told it was a 1953 willys cj3a but someone who came because they needed a cj3- says it is actually a 1948 cj2a with a cj3a windshield. Either way It is a willys project. floor boards have been replaced. Only reason I’m selling is because I have too many projects. 4cyl engine partially installed – never heard it run but makes compression when turned over by hand. its still a 6v system. have the generator, but no starter. Solid – has some rust underneath but well worth the time and effort. no title bill of sale only. ”

Listed as a CJ-3A, it has a 2A windshield, so may actually be a 2A.
“For sale is a 1949 Willys CJ-3A (Jeep). The overall body of the vehicle is very solid with just a couple areas with minor surface rust. Would be an ideal vehicle to use for hunting, but can be used for just about anything. Vehicle still runs good and just needs some cleaning up. Please only serious inquires and questions pertaining to the vehicle. Also please no calls after 8pm. ”

This might have a rare Porter & Reed half cab. The split window in the rear is what suggests it to me.

I had a nice time with Rob, Marty, and their friends last night. When I got to my parents, I learned that it was time to set the clocks forward, which meant I was losing an hour. Since I have to get up early, there won’t be many updates today.
Marty, Rob and I got our photo taken at the Alaska Or Rust booth. All three of us will be going to Alaska!
Looks solid.

The Alaska Or Rust event continues to fill much of my time. This weekend I’ll be in Puyallup at the Moonshiner’s 4×4 Swapmeet at a booth explaining to visitors what we are doing and why. If you plan on going, drop by the booth. Just look for the posters below. I’ll have some books, eWillys t-shirts, and a pile of brochures you can browse. I’ll also have some Blaster products on hand.
We’ve gotten some additional sponsors on board. As I mentioned before, Kaiser Willys will be a sponsor. You can take advantage of their discount by going to Kaiser Willys, purchasing items, and entering “ALASKAORRUST” into the shopping cart. You win and we win!
We also just signed up the B’laster Corporation, perhaps best know for their PB B’laster penetrating spray. If you have a can of that or any other B’laster product, put it on your jeep and take a photo of them, then twitter or instagram with the hashtags #alaskaorrust, #ewillys, and #BlasterFreakinWorks. Or, post it to the Alaska Or Rust Facebook page. Or, email the pics to me and I’ll do it on your behalf!
Chris McKay Vintage Jeep Parts and Jay Hinton WWII Jeeps also are pitching in as sponsors. We greatly appreciate their support. And, thanks to Allied Jeeps and Overland Diesel, who are sponsors I’ve mentioned previously.
James spotted this unusually modified truck.
“1958 Willy’s Overland Custom Built Truck ,look closed you can see it is a shorted wagoneer, it is still in progect mode,it is on a 4×4 frame ,350 Chevy,4sp, very interesting project, call of seriois.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.
Craig spotted this one. There’s some jeep underneath. If it is really a ’53, it must be a CJ-3A or 3B. An M-38A1 would have the front springs reversed.
“1953 WILLYS JEEP 4X4 OFFROAD FUN. HAS 4 CYCLINDER 3SPD. $3500.00 B/O”
It’s a project.
