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 $8000.
(12/10/2023) This is an interesting build, but the pics don’t show all the aspects. It’s possibly now a convertible (or just soft top) and has a tower blind attached to the bed.

This is worth a look. It’s got the brake assist as well as the updates. Those front seats might be really comfy, but supportive jeep seats.

“Hunting truck with High Rack”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3000.
“It is a 1952 Willys Jeep that has been used for deer hunting since 1978 when my father
bought it. There is no title, he never transferred it when he bought it and
now has lost the documents. The jeep has some rust spots as you can see in
the pictures. My dad added 4 gun mounts on it. He replaced the engine in
about 1980. The engine runs well.”
Update: **Sold** Was $6250.
It appears to have a hunting seat on the front bumper. The rear of the body has had a little work based on the rear fender wells.

“53 hunting Jeep. Rebuilt engine, PTO wench, very dependable!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4850.
Has some mods. The cut sides aren’t finished off quite the same; the passenger side is more finished than the flat, straight angle of the driver’s side. Overall, the look isn’t all that bad in my opinion. I think if there was care taken, with more material left on the front side of the cuts this might make an interesting look.
“Vintage 1972 Jeep CJ6 Runs good”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(01/29/2021) It runs. Appears to have at least some slight rust.

“This is a 1953 Willys Jeep CJ-3B (453GB2). It runs. The 4WD works. It has a new gas tank and new battery. It has new tires in the original all terrain style. It has a new winch on front with an LED light bar. It has a tow bar. It comes with a high rear seat for hunting. It does not have seat cushions though. It has a gun rack but it is not installed yet. It does have the tailgate but it is not currently on the jeep.
The passenger rear fender has been replaced. I also have a front quarter replacement but it has not been installed. It has a complete new brake system with new drums, pads and lines. It can probably use a carb tune up but it does have new spark plugs, wires and hoses. I bought it with a title but it turns out it was not the correct title as the serial number does not match so I am selling it without a title. You can get a new title fairly easily though due to its age. Overall the jeep is in decent shape. I will not respond to ANY lowball offers so don’t waste your time.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(11/07/2020) This late model 3B might have some Thor hubs on it.

“Great hunting lease Jeep! 1977 CJ5 Renegade with safari seats on the back and the front. Has run well for a year but it has trouble starting and backfires now. I am not a mechanic but I am guessing it runs very rich as I had to replace the fuel pump and I don’t know how to adjust the carb. Purchased a year ago but I changed to a lease that is better for a smaller vehicle. Open to trade for a side by side or the like. Added 4 LED spot lights, replaced the windshield, comes with a spare tire, replaced the front passenger seat (it was worn through) with a rally seat, replaced gas pump, replaced winch controller (it works) includes a rear seat that could be mounted under the safari seats. Unknown mileage. I have the signed title from when I bought it, just never transferred to my name.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000.
This might be a GPW rather than an MB. It appears to have the GPW crossmember, but I am not certain.
“This Military Bantam Jeep was made in 1943. Still running fine and it’s good for off road, hunting and ranching etc. Asking for $2000 or best offer.”
