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 $5500.
(05/28/2019) It’s missing the rear bumper. It looks like the driver’s floor has been patched with diamond plate.

“For your consideration the beautiful 1951 Willys CJ3a jeep. This is essentially grandpa’s favorite..little red rig. This jeep has been garage kept and taken care of for most of it’s life ..was in pretty decent shape before the restoration was done on it. Been about 15 years now so it’s showing it’s age a little bit but is very presentable and overall very nice
The jeep has its original 134 four-cylinder engine and T 90 three speed transmission. both units have been rebuilt and run excellent there is no smoking or unusual noises from the engine. The transmission and clutch shift fine in the work as new. Suspension had new leaf springs installed as well as brakes over all. Tires are new ….jeep runs and drives as it should. Continue reading
Russel shared this video article subtitled in English about the Colombian Yipaos.
Jan posted this to her Facebook page. There is an M-38 located inside the “world’s largest truck stop” in Walcott, IA. We drove by that place and, had I known, we would have stopped and taken pics ourselves (that’s what we get for being in a hurry … grrrr).
This random video of the world’s largest truck stop is from a “wheretheheckarethealbans” video.
Ken spotted this trailer with a really nice truck bed on it.

“This is an all-steel vintage Koenig hard top and doors for an early CJ5. I bought this hard top set a couple of years ago (?) with the grandest and noblest of intentions of restoring and modifying it to fit my 1974 CJ5. Spoiler Alert: I haven’t touched it and I’m not going to. I don’t know what year exactly, but the doors won’t fit my ’74 without modifying the hinges, as they won’t align. (See last photo) Most of the glass is there, but it needs a full restoration. These are getting harder and harder to find that haven’t completely rotted away or lost all of it’s glass.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** was $250.
Maybe someone can use these.
“134 cu in L head (flathead) out of a 1948 CJ2A. The motor is disassembled and has been checked out by a machine shop. The bore is currently .060 over, crank mains are .030 and the rod journals are .010. The block and head have been dipped and painted. I took two motors to the machine shop and had them pick the best parts to rebuild one motor. The leftovers are all usable. Motor still has to be rebuilt. Motor block with head, crank, cam and piston rods, oil pan, flywheel, manifolds, water pump, fan, and what you see in the picture.May trade, need a Weber carburetor.”
I just picked this pin up off of ebay thanks to Maury!
There are two more, though not quite as nice, on eBay right now (you can make an offer on them), from a different seller.
This gives a fairly early look at the parts available for jeeps; it’s hard to say how many images it has.

Tom spotted this unusual bed. It appears it can be ordered.

“Custom made Jeep bed Twin size All wood Just a few pieces we can do”
This is my first time seeing a Perfect Jeep and Parts Company catalog. As best as I can uncover, the company was owned by Bernard S. Forman, who, as owner, copyrighted the name and catalog in 1956. It may have been this Bernie who used to live in Chicago and died last year.
This brochure and the company’s location seems to have been pretty close to Berg’s, so they must have been direct competitors. This brochure has 23 pages and is not in good shape.

Looks in good shape.

If you’re looking for something extremely unique look no further. This should sell quick over the 4th weekend so no low ball offers.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** $2700. Paul pointed out that his probably has a ventilating windshield.
Runs and drives. If the rust isn’t bad, it could be a reasonable price.

This has a variety of mods, including suicide doors. But, I don’t understand why the seller didn’t clean off the tree droppings before taking the pics?
