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 .
Great price.

“My grandad restored this over the last 7 years. The story goes, It was a fire truck at an airport here in Fort Worth. The original owner removed all of the tanks and such and made a flat bed out of it.
Repainted, new headliner, new leather seats, custom solid oak railings and truck bed.
The only left on the restore is the dash and flooring.
We are in Fort Worth Texas.
Asking $10000, jeep runs and shifts perfectly.”
Neat, symbolic photo.

Dash has been partly cut out. Seller has listed it as a 1948 CJ-3A.
https://cosprings.craigslist.org/cto/d/jeep-willys-cj3a-price-or/6624740879.html
“Mostly complete CJ3A. The tub is in decent shape although the dash has a large hole where the gauges used to be. The frame is straight with a saginaw manual gear box. It is set up for a buick V6. It does not include an engine but I do have the tranny, t-case, and drive shafts that came out of it, along with an extra set of axles. The floor is not rotted out and and the tub straight. I do have the windshield frame (not in picture). This is a great starter project for a restoration, hot rod, or rat rod.”
UPDATE: Price might have dropped to $3800 (though the ad reads $380,000)
(11/17/2018) This appears to have a set of Warn “Summer Hubs”.

Straight body and frame. Hubs move freely but recommend buyer transporting with a trailer. Title in hand. Will not deliver to buyer. Additional pictures can be provided on request of serious buyer. Some rust throughout jeep but not bad for its age. Drivers side floor pan has rust through on the seam. Canvas top with some tears. Great original platform to start restoration or build.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
Runs and drives. Does have some floor rust.
“I am selling my 1954 Willys CJ3B. These 3Bs are getting harder to find in original untouched condition like this one. It runs, drives, and stops! Starts right up no issues. Still has original 6V system which chargers. It has the F134, T90 3 speed, and Twin stick Dana 18. Dana 25 front axle with warn hubs, Dana 44 rear axle. I have put on a new exhaust system, OEM spec front leaf springs, pivot bolts, U-bolts and shackles. New shocks all the way around. Brakes are brand new from master cylinder to wheel cylinders as well as shoes and lines.
Engine has new water pump, thermostat, radiator hoses, and fuel pump. Carb has been rebuilt too. original rims come with it. Driver side floor has been fiber glassed until I could get around to welding in new floor. I have a gas tank that will work with it until OEM one is bought. Engine smokes do to worn piston rings. can easily be fixed. I will explain on the phone about engine smoking. Jeep will come with the rest of the leaf spring shackles and pivot bolts(new), spare U bolt, 3 moog u-joints, and water bypass hose. Clean title I am the 3rd owner. I have a copy of the title before me and it was October 1970.”
Could be worth a look.

“Runs and drives but needs carb work has new bf mud tires”

“Great little jeep. Original motor and transmission. Has some rust and leaks a little oil but over all it’s in pretty good condition for the year. The hard top is great. It only goes about 45 mph but still manages to be a lot of fun. I also have a extra set of tires and it comes with a snow plow. Texts are easier for me during the day.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $750.
It needs a little work, but could still be a good price.
“This is actually an ex-postal Jeep 1975 DJ-5D. They’re pretty rare. It was used for 20 years for the USPS delivering mail. The engine and transmission were just rebuilt by a reputable mechanic and they have less than 10,000 miles on them. It runs and idles really good. Top speed is 65mph. 2WD, Automatic 3 speed, steering wheel is on passenger side. It’s big enough inside to fit a dirt bike or mtn bike. Tires were just checked and filled by a tire shop.
It needs just a couple things: 1) new battery 2) front brakes 3) transmission pan gasket 4) steering stabilizer
I just found out that I’m having a baby sooo I guess I need to start selling all of my hobbies 🙂 I’m firm on the price. I’ve got the title in hand. Text is the best way to contact me.”
