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 .

This looks good.

(09/28/09) This looks like a nice, stock, early CJ-3B.
“This is a 1953 cj3b that has been frame off restored . The engine has 800 miles on it . The engine was gone through top to bottom . It has been painted back to original color. I am the third owner . I have owned the jeep sence 2003 . The seats are in new condition . It has a heater and a defroster that both work very well . The tires have about 1/2 tread and the spare is brand new”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5000
This CJ-3B started at $8000 this summer and has just dropped to $5000. It looks like a great price on a very nice, stock looking CJ-3B.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
This looks like a great rebuild.
“This auction is for a 1953 Willys Jeep CJ3B. We were asked by a friend of ours if we could list it for him so here is the information that I got from the owner. The Willys has a new reproduction steel body. 4 CYL “F” head motor, 3 Speed Manual trans, high and low range 4 wheel drive. The vehicle has undergone a complete frame off restoration. The motor has been rebuilt, trans and transfer case gone through, front end, complete brake job, Interior, etc… There is only 310 miles on the vehicle since the restoration. He has a reciept folder totalling just over $9,000 in body and parts alone. This is not counting the labor at all. Everything appears to have been done quite nicely! Jeep runs and drives great as it should. He does not have a top but from what I understand, these are availble at a reasonable price. The only reason he is selling this is that he is starting a restoration on a original millitary Jeep and he is going to use the proceeds from this sale to help fund the project.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5650.
This looks in good shape. I wonder how the appraised value was determined.

Currently powered by a Ford 4.3L 4-cyl. Good trim. Good tires. Good brakes. Shows well. Appraisal value of $6750.00. Some extra parts. See pics. $5650.00 or Best Offer”

This might be a good deal.

“Neat little Jeep…fun to drive…V-6 – 3 spd – 4×4 works good – Clutch, transmission & brakes good. It hasn’t been abused or rusted out & I haven’t found any bondo repairs.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
The seller provides a very nice overview of the jeep.
“This is an extremely rare 1942 Slat Grill Jeep. Depending on where you look, different sources indicate that between 25 and 300 of these Jeeps are known to exist today.
The number plate on this Jeep shows that it is number 113424 (the 1’s are punched as I’s-see photo). This is the numbering for the Jeep, and does not indicate that 113,424 of these were made. Rather, the first 25,000 Jeeps ever made were Slat Grills, and the vast majority have been destroyed. I have had this Jeep for several years, and it has a clear California title. There are no registration issues since it has been registered non-operational so that no back fees accumulated while I stored it.
From what I can know and can tell:
I bought the jeep with an F-head motor and replaced it with the correct L-Head motor, but the motor is an aftermarket Kaiser Motor rather than a Willys. The motor which is in it is a Kaiser Supersonic, and since its rebuild 12 years ago, has been run for only a few hours. Unfortunately, I no longer have the rebuild receipt but it was rebuilt professionally…..”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was Make Offer.
This looks well maintained.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1100.
I can’t tell much from the pic.
