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: **SOLD** Was $2500
Here’s an unusual build.
“It is a 1946 willys Cj2a jeep It runs great. It moves but there is a noise in the transmission. Dont have time to play with it anymore. It has 3 inch’s of lift plus the spring over conversion so all together probable 6 inches of lift. With brand new 35 inch BFG all terrains.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $3700
(11/19/09) This looks nice enough, though I’m not sure why the builder didn’t paint the extension body pieces. The frame looks to be a mid to late 70s, early 80s CJ frame as best I can tell.

These are the older style dogs and appear in good condition.

Tires aren’t weather checked, they either have been on the jeep or in the shop. The rims are either 15×9.5 or 15×10 wide. They came off of a 66 CJ -Jeep. Will fit 1/2 ton Ford or Jeep. 5 lug.”
UPDATE: **SOLD* Was $1800. The serial number notes the serial number is #67667.
(03/10/2010) “Motor runs good. 4-cylinder overhead valve. Needs some tender loving care. Most parts are there to make it an original, body is good.”
UPDATE: Still Available. Last listed in 2010.
(12/28/2009) Check out that hood on the left. I can’t say I’ve seen that done before! Both of these look rough. I’m not sure if the years are off or if the windshields are wrong.

It’s a nice looking rig & trailer.

“Willys CJ3A Jeep has original motor, the heads have been machined for unleaded fuel and a rebuilt carburetor. The frame and body are in good shape and has a clean Texas title.

This appears in solid shape. Might be a good deal.
“Runs good, possible trade for commuter.”

This looks like a very nice CJ-3B for the price.
“Available now is my ’53 Willys Jeep. It appears unmolested – which is to say that it looks reasonably stock and is in very good condition for its age. Adult owned – garaged. Has a functioning 8-track tape player (and tapes) and a Johnson 23ch CB radio, too. Included (but not shown) is a rear cargo rack and a fold-down rear seat. Also included is a Bikini top. Mechanically, it has had all of the desirable modifications done: Buick V6, SM420 transmission, Saginaw steering, Warn winch, KC lites, etc. I replaced the entire suspension last year…new leaf springs, shocks, shackles…even new grease fittings! I’d consider trades for a very cherry Samurai, Toyota 4×4/4Runner, or maybe a small convertible sports car like a Miata. I have many pics of this Willys and would be glad to forward some to you. E-mail me with questions.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $2500
(10/16/09) I suspect this is a little rougher than the seller suggests. I’m not sure if it runs or not.
