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 $100.
Craig shared this one. There seems to be $100 worth of value here, probably just in the windshield glass. The speedometer suggests this could well be a 1956.
“Selling an old JEEP from the 1950’s. I don’t know what year exactly, but it is from the 50’s. Someone said 1956, but not sure. PARTS ONLY, YOU REMOVE. Windshield is good, many good engine parts as well, headlamps, grill, etc.
$100, YOU MUST REMOVE FROM PROPERTY AND TAKE ALL
First Come First Served. MUST COME READY TO REMOVE WITH TOOLS / TRAILER, AND HELP AT TIME OF VIEWING, NO EXCEPTIONS.
If interested call or text. Worth the money if you are looking for original parts to restore one, there are many good parts and engine looks surprisingly clean. No calls from blocked or restricted numbers.”
Jim is selling his CJ-5. It’s got a ventilating windshield, overdrive, and a Meyer hardtop.
“A 1959 CJ-5. Has a Ford 302 under the hood. 3 speed. Needs a radiator and a battery. Has a Warn overdrive, rare ventilating windshield, hardtop, and 70/30 front seat. Shocks, leaf springs, alternator, and starter has been replaced within the last 100 miles. I hate to sell, but I have no time to finish. Replaced the engine that was in it from a 1971 Mustang. The ford 221 v-8 from a 1962 Fairlane that I removed, was worn out and smoking. Any and all parts I have will go with the sale. I have always wanted to do a full restoration on this one, but work keeps me away from home 11 months a year. It has been sitting under cover for 4 years. Needs minor work to run again.”

Runs and has a plow. Could be worth a look.

If the body has been patched well enough, this might be a good price.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4000.
Could be some value here.
“62 Jeep ready to be finished. I bought this jeep as is stands from a old family friend. He had a fiberglass tub put on it and all new wire harness. Runs good, 4 hi & lo work, but needs several things to complete it. The water pump just started leaking, steering column has a bad bearing (stiff and squeaks), needs new break cylinders as well. I also have a Myers hard top with doors. I have owned it for 4 years and just cant get the time to finish it so want to pass it to someone who needs a project. Keep in mind its old and a project but the body work is finished and just needs some attention.”
Remade to look like a military jeep, this is a CJ-5.

Seller mentions an overdrive, so there might be value here.
“Frame solid. Body has slight rust but not bad at all. The “Hurricane” 4 cylinder engine is sitting in the back of the Jeep. Previous owner said it ran but said it had a coolant leak. The coolant leak was the head gasket. Has 4-speed with overdrive. Also has BFGoodrich 31″ tires with excellent tread on aftermarket 15″ wheels. Was going to drop the engine in and drive just like it is but moving situations forced me to sell. Has a CLEAN TITLE.”

UPDATE: It appears this endeavor didn’t work out.
Merlin reported on a NEW CJ-5 that will go into production (approx 5,000 jeeps per year) soon. One question that many folks have asked is how the new jeep can meet the current safety specs for new cars. According to Merlin, the short answer is it can’t, but it doesn’t have to meet them. In 2014 the feds passed regulations that allow low production auto manufacturers to only have to meet the specs for 1967.
“With Sema going on I am excited to finally announce the return of an old favorite, the Cj5. Universal Motors Corp (makers of the Allied Jeep L head blocks) has the new Mopar licensed Cj5 on display in booth 32326 at Sema. These sport the current Jeep engine, and there will be a diesel option as well. Bodies and parts will be manufactured by UMC, not bought from current parts and panel manufacturers other than Jeep. A kit version will be available as well. Assembly is done in Detroit. More info and pics will be posted as I receive more. http://universalmotorscorp.com/”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.
Looks promising.
“This is an all original, unrestored Jeep with 30,923 showing on the odometer. Taken off the road and unregistered since 1974, stored in a barn and used around a farm/camp since then. The odometer stopped working after the first few years of farm use, have evidence of 28,782 miles on 8/24/1972. Engine runs great, starts right up, new tires, recent exhaust, excellent brakes, drives great, 4WD works as it should. Has the cabin heater option. Comes with the original canvas top with bows, two sets of doors, an extra set of bows for a bikini top, spare tire and original manuals. The top needs some re-sewing of the seams. Some rust in the usual places. Need some minor repairs to be roadworthy, mostly electrical.”

“1961 CJ5 Willy’s Jeep. 4 wheel drive. Manual transmission. Plow. Has 1951 Willy’s motor with 35,000 miles on it. Ran when parked a few years ago, shouldn’t take much to get it running again. Clean NJ title. $2500 cash.”
https://southjersey.craigslist.org/cto/d/61-willys-jeep-4×4-plow/6360391478.html
UPDATE: Still Available.
(09/18/2017) Has a fiberglass body and runs.
“I purchased this a year ago with the hopes to fix it up but I realized that I dont have the time or space for it. That being said I did a little work to it. Replaced battery and battery cables. Replaced the carb and replaced the fuel filters. I also purchased a new gas can for it.
The body of the vehicle is in great shape. The body has been replaced with a fiber glass one. The inside is also in great shape no rips in the seats.
The frame is also in great shape. There is rust but NO ROT. A previous owner cut a notch in the frame for some reason but it doesn’t seem big enough to effect anything.
The jeep starts and runs but is very loud and blows a blue smoke. I have been told that it has a rod nock. I am asking $2500 OBO. Some research tells me to get the engine running reliably it will be about $2500. You could have a cool jeep for 5k. Only serious inquiries please. I can send more pictures if needed. “
