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 .
Runs, Appears worth a look.
“In good shape has new shocks insyalled and Springs ready to be installed has everything needed for tune up runs good. Ready for restoration,four wheel project,hunting, or just driving around”

I always liked this style, Factory top” was stylish for it’s time. I always wondered if Kaiser- Willys manufactured this top in house, or just had a business agreement with another Company to do so. Would anybody out there know the facts?
I had 2 vehicles with this style top, way ahead of it’s time with the fiberglass roof panel, (light weight) made up for the clumsy heavy weight of the doors and rear hatch. To me, it almost seemed that the metal parts of the top were designed as an after thought to fit a very well designed fiberglass roof panel.
Does anybody know who manufactured the fiberglass roof panel and the story behind it? I’m pretty sure it wasn’t Kaiser Willys.
Mike,
According to Derek Redmond, Jim Allen believed the early CJ-5 tops were made by Koenig, though there were no identifying marks on the tops to confirm this. http://www.cj3b.info/Hardtops/DeliveryHardtops.html
