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: **SOLD** Was $5500.
(05/08/2012) This nicely stock jeep includes a rear PTO with a winch. It has an older top that looks in good shape. I’m pretty sure that isn’t factory shag carpet though ….
“1957 JEEP CJ-5 Willys….. 4×4 … lock out hubs…. 4 cylinder….3 speed … freshly rebuilt engine…. new master cylinder, new rear wheel cylinders, new brake lines…
factory PTO and rear winch…
Full black soft top …. rear seat….. $5,500..”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Were $1200.
Both of these run, too.
“Both have 4 cylinders standards both run two plow trucks 1200 for the pair.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
Here’s a nicely stock CJ-5. I haven’t seen a chrome rim around the spare tire like this one has. Was that an option?
“971 Jeep CJ-5, 37,726 original miles
(not a rebuild, this is ORIGINAL)
Original Buick V6 engine
Two tops (full soft top & bikini top)
Locking Axles (2 wheel to 4 wheel)
Great solid vehicle. Runs extremely well. This is not a show vehicle but not far off. Color is forest green. Interior is forest green and black. They don’t make em like this anymore and this one is as un-touched as they get. Once its gone there may never be another. Any reasonable offer will be considered. If you have questions, or wish to make an offer, please call (828) 712-6681. Ask for details.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $900
If this runs, this might be a good price.
“1963 Willys Jeep
4 cyl., 3 speed manual
solid frame
6 1/2 foot power angle plow included
Clear title
Credit cards accepted
Must purchase in person”
Buz spotted this one. It is a no-reserve auction on a beautiful, stock CJ-5. You’ll want to look at the pics of this one. Compare the picture of it to the brochure below in the next post, too.
“Selling for my computer inept friend. This 1960 Willys Jeep CJ5 is in Beautiful Original Condition, probably the nicest original CJ5 in existence. Totally Original Paint, Upholstery, Engine, Miles, Everything is ORIGINAL. 21055 miles. Clear Title. Original Spare Tire is not shown in the pictures but is included in the sale. The tires are believed to be the originals and are in good shape with normal wear and no weather checking. The Jeep has been stored in a carefully climate controlled building and has seen just enough use in the last many years to keep everything functional and working well. The Jeep starts easily, runs perfectly, goes down the road as it should, and it needs nothing. The Hardtop appears to have never been removed since new. All fluids are fresh and the battery is new. Look closely at the pictures, they tell the story about this vehicle better than words, more detailed pictures are available if you request them via email. The Jeep shows very minimal use and wear with no damage or repairs. All sheet metal is in oustanding condition and the only corrosion is very minimal, located near the tailights on both sides, the pictures show this clearly. Floor pans, fenders, quarter panels hood, undercarriage, were undercoated early in this CJ’s life and have been remarkably preserved. There are no hidden problems, repairs, or any funny business … This jeep is the real thing, a near museum quality original, unmolested survivor.”

This one just seems so sad. There should be some value here.

Thanks Sonny for this great find. It is a screaming deal that shouldn’t last long. That’s a really rare setup.
“This is the coolest little Jeep post hole digger.
Needs a started
tires need to be filled.”
This runs and drives with an operating trencher and sports duallies.
“1958 CJ 5 Willys Jeep with a trencher attachment that was factory made for jeeps back before the industry started making trenchers for smaller jobs.
Back then it was either a shovel and pick or large diggers. This trencher fit the bill for the smaller jobs.
This unit is in complete working order and runs great. The odometer reads 4400 miles and I believe it.
The Huricane-4 motor runs smooth and does not smoke.
Also has duals on the back that are made for jeep and never seen one of these with a cab.
Price is OBO at $6500.00 Please only serouis inquirers. 314-952-two nine 61”

UPDATE **SOLD** Was $1800
The price looks good on this plow jeep.
“FOR SALE 1963 WILLYS CJ5 WITH SNOW PLOW REBUILT ENGINE 3 YEARS AGO NEW CLUTCH THEN ALSO HAS CHAINS PLOWES GREAT NEEDS BRAKE WORK AND AS OF THIS SPRING ENGINE STARTS BUT WILL NOT STAY RUNNING CARB OR IGNITION PROBLEM NOT SURE DO NOT HAVE PAPER WORK”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
(04/24/2012) I like the vintage look of ‘Wirick’s’. Given it doesn’t runs, the price is a bit high.
“Selling my 1956? Willys jeep. MUST SELL!
Asking $2500/obo. Very little rust.
Easiest to come look at it. It hasn’t ran for a while…don’t think it would take much to get it running.
Great project!”
UPDATE: Status Unknown. Was $2000.
I thought this looked pretty good for only $2000.
“1959 Jeep Willy, army green, 69,658 original miles. New gas lines, new tank….Many extra parts — engine, doors, tires, gas tank, extra set of tires Must see to appreciate.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4500.
This looks really nice for the price.
“1961 Willys Jeep. Great shape. More new parts than old. Way too many to list. Brakes need adjusting. Runs good.
Original hurricane engine. High/low transmission. 4 wheel drive.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4000
I thought the paint job on this was unusual enough to post. I’ve never seen stripes quite like those.
“1956 Jeep CJ5 Willys 4×4. Completely original Jeep including hard top and hard doors. 4 cylinder 3 speed. 4×4 has High and Low Range. 6 volt system. Brand new battery and battery cables. New condenser, points and distributor cap. Top and doors come off. Perfect Jeep to restore or drive as is. Has very minor rust. Floor pans are not rusted through. Surface rust only. Not sure if roll bar is factory or not. Back seat is not factory. Just in there for extra seating. Tires and wheels are not original. Jeep has spent it’s life in Montana. Very hard to find a Jeep this old in this rare and original condition. Has some history to go with it! Call with questions.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
This jeep has some unusual history. The engine and tranny are out of it. There is a video of the inauguration parade that shows a CJ-5 pulling a float at the 4:17 mark. http://www.criticalpast.com/video/65675034028_John-F-Kennedy%E2%80%99s-Inaugural-Parade_fireworks-in-the-sky_John-A-Volpe . There is a reference to them at the G503, too: http://g503.com/forums///////viewtopic.php?f=19&t=162217“Click here for ADDITIONAL PHOTOS
“This is a 1961 Willys CJ-5 with some history. Snow was predicted for the 1961 JFK inaugural parade and 2 Jeeps were commissioned to lead the parade and plow if necessary. This is one of the two Willys outfitted with snow plows that led the parade in Philadelphia (plaque on dash). I’m told the paint color was chosen to match Air Force One. After the parade the Jeeps were donated to a Philadelphia school. When they had served their purpose a school employee purchased this Jeep, and we bought it from the next owner who bought it from the school employee. You may have noticed the engine and drive train have been removed; this was the start of a restoration project that never went any further. Items that go with the Willys are: original drive train and engine, extra engine, PTO driven winch, snow plow and all other pertinent items for reassembly.
The dash plaque reads: THIS Jeep VEHICLE WAS AN OFFICIAL UNIT IN THE INAUGURAL PARADE HONORING THE 35TH PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES JOHN FITZGERALD KENNEDY JANUARY 20, 1961”
The paint job on this is unusual. The cammo even extends across the headlights. But the inside of this looks quite nice. The jeep may be in good shape.
“Call 906-341-3582 or e-mail for more info. Nice old jeep. Great shape.”

“This a 1968 Jeep six wheel /Backhoe very rare and super heavy duty

spots but where it counts under neath it has surface rust but the truck
is amazing and runs great the Backhoe works and digs great the jeep also has

backfill blade mounted with a shoulder mount
The Jeep is located in Biddeford Maine and very close to I95
storage is not a problem and will provide any help needed
to ship all at buyers cost”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2995. Has a Meyer hardtop.
Needs a little work.
“1962 Willys Jeep with Plow,I think it has a leaky front wheel cylinder so the brakes will need attention.I did put in new brake lines and a new brake booster and master cylinder.Runs good.I do have clear registration.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000
This doesn’t run, but appears pretty solid and utilitarian.
“We bought this Willys thinking we get around to restoring it… Well here we are and my bosses idea of restoration is “sell it, I’m too busy. Does not run, looks to be complete, clean title, great project car.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $2300.
(06/12/2012) For the price, it looks like a solid runabout jeep.
“Runs and drives great.. mostly original …great shape..1962 with good title. Also have soft top at a good price

This looks like a nice price on a stock CJ-5.
“Neet old jeep everything is original and everything works I use it in the desert and mountains and it never failed me. comes with canvis top with doors. call me”
UPDATE: Price was $600. **Status Unknown**
If the body is as solid as it looks, this might be a nice little jeep that needs just a little work.
“1957 WILLYS JEEP- I have had this jeep for about 6 years. I drove it about 1 year ago. The engine will turn over with a jummper cable. I took out the gas tank because it rusted a hole in it.
Price- $600.00 or your best offer
If you want more pictures I will text or email them to you.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Were $1200.
One runs and one is a parts vehicle.
“1957 CJ5 with 60 CJ5 parts vehicle. The 57 is mostly all original, with hardtop and Meyer snow plow. It runs great, drives, needs brakes. The plow works good, I have the cylinders to make it power angle. It has a clean title. The bad: the frame is toast. The body tub is rough. The 60 CJ5 is for parts, I don’t know if it runs or not. The frame is good and it has a usable body. No title. Also I have another hardtop just like the one on the 57 except it has swing open doors vs sliding doors. $1200.00 for everything.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4900.
Glenn spotted this one. The paint is funky. The body looks good, best as I can see from the strange paint job. However, for only 8200 miles the engine compartment looks pretty filthy.
“1962 Willys Jeep. 8200 original miles! 4 Speed with working snow plow. Very little rust. I have owned since 1988 and prior to that it was stored in warehouse in NYC. $4900. No papers.”
Unclear if it runs, but looks pretty solid.
“57 Jeep Willys, 4 cylinder, Standats, 4×4. Good parts truck or restoration.
