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** $3500.
(02/06/2019) Could be worth a look.

(11/26/2018) It’s listed a 1950, so it may be a CJ-3A with a 2A windshield.

“1950 Willy’s Jeep with stock restoration, fold down windshield, roll bar, diamond plate running boards and rear fender wrap”

(12/24/2018) This has a funky dash.
“1954 Willys CJ-3B Hi Hood. Great father son project, hunting or parade vehicle. 283 Chevy, three spd. transmission, two speed transfer case with a Ford overdrive. Jeep has 7.50 -16 Remington bias ply tires, Warn hubs and is currently non-oped with no back registration.
Windshield glass is broke and is incorrect windshield frame for the hi-hood. It is off an earlier model flat fender which could be good for taller drivers. Wheel tubs have been trimmed so the seats could move back.
Jeep is mostly stock except for the V-8, unsure of the gear ratios in the axles, drum brakes on all four corners and looks like stock type steering. Have never tried the over drive so not sure if it works. Jeep runs, steers and stops but will need to be trailered to its new home. Headlights, brake lights and blinkers work as well. There is a heater motor with fan that works as well.
Jeep has some neat little features that one of owners has done at some point such as looks like a car instrument/speedometer cluster has been set in the dash and looks like there is a clean rear sway bar to make handle smoother.
Jeep has a single fuel tank but we do have a second tank that came with it that could be mounted under the driver seat. Body seems to be fair with normal repairs, bondo spots etc. There is no top or backseat for the Jeep.”
I thought this early delivery sedan with a half window installed on the back driver’s side was interesting.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $10,000.
Someone was looking for one of these.
“M151 A2 army Jeep. 1970’s model. Runs and drives great!”
Seller notes this is built on some jeep drive train. It makes me wonder if it was a Topeka Mower chassis?
https://greenbay.craigslist.org/grd/d/sturgeon-bay-homemade-loader/6819812617.html
“I have a homemade loader, has 3cylinder Diesel engine. Rear steer, not sure of make of engine. Needs to have brakes hooked up. Runs and moves fine. I believe that the drive train under it is from a Willy’s Jeep. Has high and low range. I don’t know what the lifting capacity is or the total weight of the machine. I had it on my 6×12 foot single axle trailer without any problems.”
Steve shared this one. It sure looks like there’s some value here.
https://allentown.craigslist.org/atq/d/emmaus-1959-willys-jeep-cj5/6821420863.html
“This is a really neat project for someone who has the time. This Jeep needs extensive bodywork and some frame work and most likely mechanical work like brakes etc. The battery is not good and there is an antifreeze leak that needs some more investigation. I took some pictures of the damaged areas just to set the tone.
Keep in mind nothing has been done to this jeep for many years.
The good news is its starts right up and the transmission shifts easily. It seems like everything is functional with the drive train. The hard top is unique and solid. The doors need some work. It has an electric plow lift and plow.
Its been around for a while but the mileage is relatively low.
I purchased it to keep me busy over the winter and it turns out other things more pressing took my time.
This jeep is not road worthy at this time but it could go right to work on a farm with a bit of work.”
