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: Was listed at $2500. **SOLD**
Runs and drives, but has an unusual front.
“I have a 1977 Jeep. It has an all fiberglass body. That’s nice so it never rusts. It has a good running 4cyl. Ford engine. The transmission is an automatic with overdrive. It runs and drives great. Its not 4 wheel drive but it has a posi rearend. The steering wheel is on the right side.”
That was the Jeep that was; I’ve never seen one like this. If I remember correctly, this was to be the next generation postal jeep with a more economical 4 cylinder engine and lighter weight. For some reason , the contract got canceled when the post office decided it needed more cargo capacity and went with the Grumann aluminum mini step vans. Very rare DJ5 indeed.
That is an unusual DJ-5, I have never seen one like it(until now). Dave has another one on this site and I found a few more examples on google images. There is some mention of an aftermarket company rebuilding DJ-5s and installing fiberglass bodies and 4 cylinder engines. These seems like an expensive enterprise and Mike’s thoughts seem possible. Maybe the DJ-5 experts can give some more details on these.
That’s odd. Wonder if it was home made or a mod they were trying out?
Hi has this jeep sold?
Tony, it appears to have sold. I’ll update the listing.
