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: Still Available.
(02/10/2018) Could be worth a look.

Tyler built this desk out of parts he gathered at last year’s Great Willys Picnic. Here are a few more pics.
“I just wanted to share my computer desk I made from some parts I picked up at last years great willys picnic. That I found out about thanks to one of your posts. I took up the project as a way to teach myself welding. I designed the desk to also work with my simulation steering wheel and pedals so I can drive jeeps in video games at my jeep desk. The last thing I set up was two stage led lights in the headlights for added style :).”
UPDATE: Jeff, the former owner, left a comment. “This is a factory prototype. Someone has a picture of it sitting next to the Alcoa car that Willys built that was a Jeepster “coupe”. I am the one who ran the ad above….the truck is the real thing and if someone has it, bring it to a Willys meet. I don’t expect to find it myself but whomever has it…they should know the history.”

“I want to buy this truck. I owned it before and would like to find it and get it back if it’s still around. The truck is a 1950 Willys and it has Chevrolet corner windows in the back of the cab. I doubt that there are two like this around so irf you know of one it would be the one.”
Looks good.

“For sale a very nice 1961 Jeep CJ3B that is a great driver. Everything is in working order and has had the engine and transmission recently detailed as you can see in the before and after photos.

Please feel free to ask questions. Email is the best way to get a hold of me”

Previous owner installed power steering and upgraded the motor to a ’53. Diamond plating in the back seat area and a winch. Odometer says 6830, but surely that isn’t accurate. No low ball offers, and no I won’t trade for anything other than cash.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $16,500.
Not a perfect restoration, looks in good shape.
“Restored approximately 15 years ago and used very little, mostly for parades on major holidays. In great shape and ready to go. Painted in WW2 US Army colors. Will only respond to phone numbers due to scams.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $10,500.
Could use some more pics.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000.
(03/30/2108) It’s a project.
“Unfinished project 75% done.
Has a lot lot of goodies. Which I will list at bottom of post.
***I cannot stress this enough 75% Done***
I would say if your not a fabricator this is probably not the project for you.
Here’s what it needs;
Transmission tunnel, transmission mount, re hook up break lines, fuel system, steering column needs to be mounted,
*Motor will turn on but obviously needs work to drive.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $250.
The holes along the front of this top suggest to me it is a 2A top rather than a 3A.
“I have what I believe to be a soft top and doors for a Jeep CJ3a. I’ve searched Google and it looks like the pics for a CJ3a. The top is made by Kayline and is in excellent condition. It shows some signs of wear but doesn’t look like it was used very much. It’s shiny black and the windows are clear with no yellowing. The doors look a little more used but are still in good shape with clear windows. Unfortunately, I don’t have any hardware. Call or text me if interested.”
No pics provided.

“Selling 1947 Jeep CJ2A. $2500 OBO not looking for any trades. Been sitting for several years. Currently not running. The would be a great project for restoration. There are several areas of rust.
Comes with hard top and front tow bar.
Has the 4 cylinder engine.
Will post photos soon.
Buyer would need to bring flat bed trailer to move.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6900.
(01/28/2018) The top doesn’t look like it would hold up well at faster speeds. The jeep has a variety of mods.
“Super fun to own and drive. Pretty much rebuilt when I bought it a couple years ago. Rebuilt six cylinder flat head Studebaker engine, stock running gear, tow bar for front, 2 sets of tires and wheels, manuals, prior owner receipts for work done, two 10 gallon gas tanks under the seats, four extra 5 gallon gas cans, hi-lift jack, Replica 50 caliber machine gun & mini gun, military tool box, ammo cans, replica radio transmitter with working lights in it, front halogen light and two spotlights, antennae base. I made a top for it out of canvas, you can leave it or take it off. Performs really good in sand & desert.Would make great parade vehicle. Open to offers.”
UPDATE: I was sold out, but now have a handful left.
Original is on the left, the reproduction on the right. The colors are closer than they appear, as the original has caught some extra light from the window on the left.
The jeep ran into the rear of a lumber truck, injuring a soldier and his girlfriend.

The asking price is a bit high, but this jeep just oozed nostalgia for me. It reminds me a lot of my parents’ CJ-5.

(02/06/2018) This was Sam’s rig. I visited him and saw in person in 2013. It should be a good jeep still.
