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 has a rebuilt engine. It looks pretty stock and in good condition except for the paint.

It looks like a fine jeep for only $2200. I’m not sure the ‘crawler’ poses are the best way to sell this jeep.

Some paint would really help this.

“Very sharp 1957 Willys Jeep with original drivetrain. This is a great offroad toy and can be driven on the street as well. This is a small price for such a classic! Will consider trade for a muscle, classic, or sports car.”
UPDATE: Here’s some before and after pics from when Jim owned this jeep. This is one of Jim’s vehicles that he rebuilt. This is likely no longer for sale.
This includes a roll cage that can be bolted in or taken out (as it is in the picture).
“1960 Willys jeep CJ5, original condition. Stock 4-cylinder, 3-speed manual, high and low range transfer
case. Full locker axles front and back. Has lock out hubs. Yes I’m sure it can out climb a Billygoat.
Beautiful full canvas top with canvas doors. Full roll cage that can bolt in or out.

This has a cool old top. Give this a paint job and it could be a great old jeep.

Rick asked me to post these pics of his 1955 CJ-5 that he has put up for sale. The VIN is 5754811227. Rick also sent me a couple of rebuilt postal jeeps that I’ll highlight tomorrow.
He wrote, “1955 Willys CJ5 completely restored 2 years ago. Everything is new or rebuilt. All original except seats, and carb & air cleaner. I have the originals and they are perfect condition. Asking $6000.00, or trade for a flat fender in good condition. Trade should be of equal value, or buyer willing to pay difference in value. This Jeep is ready to go.

“IT DOES NOT HAVE POWER STEERING, BUT IT IS MANAGEABLE EVEN LOADED WITH GUYS AND GEAR. I HAVE USED A LOT OF HI RACK JEEPS AND THIS IS THE BEST ONE I HAVE OPERATED. IT IS JUST BUILT RIGHT. IT IS COMFORTABLE AND THE PERFECT SIZE. THE TOP HOLDS 2 BIG GUYS, FOUR GUNS AND EXTRA STORAGE. THE QUAIL RACK HOLDS 2 GUYS AND 2 GUNS. THERE IS A BASKET IN THE MIDDLE FOR SHELLS OR A COOLER. THE TITLE IS NOT TRANSFERRED INTO MY NAME,IT IS THE ORIGINAL 78 TITLE, BUT HAS BEEN SIGNED BY PREVIOUS SELLER.

THE SPEEDO DOSENT WORK ALONG WITH SOME GAUGES. THIS JEEP HAS NOT BEEN TAGGED SINCE 1990. I HAVE DRIVEN IT ON THE ROAD IN WEST TEXAS, AND IT HANDLES VERY WELL. IF I LEFT SOMETHING OUT BE SURE TO ASK.”
It runs and has a plow. Looks like it might be a good price.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2700.
This CJ-5 looks nicely stock and appears in good shape.
“1959 Willy’s Jeep. Less than 60,000 original miles. Runs great (4 cylinder) and in excellent condition. No top. PRICE REDUCED to $2,700.”
This seems like a very nice CJ-5 for a pretty reasonable price. There’s a long list of new and rebuilt parts put into this rebuild.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
This looks pretty nice for only $2500. No top included.
“It has a 225 v6, stock running gear no top or back seat newer tires and front springs.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
“1959 WILLYS JEEP ….NUT AND BOLT RESTORED….$10,000 AND 1 YEAR INVESTED BY PREVIOUS OWNER….TRADED IN ON A STREET ROD HERE AT RIVER BENZ MOTORS….TOTAL REBUILT WITH 2361 MILES SINCE COMPLETED(READING ON NEW SPEEDOMETER)…NEW ALUMINUM BODY ($3500) AND FIBERGLASS FENDERS, HOOD, AND TAILGATE”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500
The buyer purchased this jeep a couple months ago, but has never gotten this v6 started. Note: it includes an overdrive. This might be a good deal if the engine turns over and you can talk the seller down a bit (after all, it’s non running & needs new tires) on price. Then go through this check list as these are the most likely issues:
I’m not a fan of the front bumper on this jeep, but the rest of this looks like a good price.
