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 .
Bill shared this CJ-5 with some unusual sides on the back. It’s a project due to a thrown rod.

“Very clean and rust free frame and body on restored 1964 Kaiser Jeep CJ5. Recently threw a rod and original engine 3-speed manual needs rebuild or replacement. Have quote from local mechanic for engine rebuild of $8,000+/-. Beautiful head turner and weekend warrior vehicle. Always garage kept. Has Bluetooth-enabled Kenwood system. Will need to be towed or trailered.”
Appears worth a look. Unclear why this has Idaho plates.

“If carb is tuned Runs good just needs carb tune 4speed manual no trades please will run to drive home just fine just runs rich”
It may be a project, but it looks in pretty good shape compared to most.

“Willys Jeep, first year for the CJ-5. Needs some work, but runs and drives. The body is pretty beat up, but the drivetrain is solid. All stock drivetrain, 4 cylinder "Hurricane" F-head and 3 speed transmission. I bought it as a project, but haven’t had much time to work on it. Now I’m moving in a few months and don’t want to take it with me. Since I’ve had it, I’ve installed Warn locking hubs, replaced the rear springs, a couple of U-joints, the fuel tank, and gauge cluster. The rear seat isn’t currently bolted down, but all the hardware is there. I believe it was restored at some point in the past, but the guy I bought it from beat the body up pretty bad off-roading it. Come take it for a test drive and make an offer”
Seems a pretty good price for a race-ready rig.

Tom spotted this solid looking CJ-5. I can’t tell if those side plates are there to protect or to cover damage or rot.

Maury shared this nice looking CJ-5. The current bid price is $11,000 (with 6 days to go). The stripes are consistent with a 71/72, but an original 73 ought to have a different stripe style, shouldn’t it? Maybe it is a 72 titled as a 73? Here is a look at the Renegade stripes: http://www.ewillys.com/2013/08/20/renegade-stripes/
https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1973-jeep-cj-5-12/
“This 1973 Jeep CJ-5 is said to have undergone a twelve-year refurbishment completed in 2021 that involved refinishing the exterior in yellow, re-trimming the interior in black vinyl, and installing a replacement 304ci V8 linked to a three-speed manual transmission and a dual-range transfer case. Equipment includes 15” wheels, manually locking front hubs, a dual exhaust system, a black soft top and doors, Renegade graphics, black wheel arch extensions, and a roll bar. Acquired by the seller in 2022, this CJ-5 is now offered in Nevada with service records and an Arizona title in the seller’s name.”
This Warn OD equipped Tux Park has some body rust.

https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1978-jeep-cj-5-14/
“This 1978 Jeep CJ-5 was acquired by the seller in 2014 and subsequently fitted with a 258ci inline-six and refinished in red. Additional work is said to have included a rebuild of the three-speed manual transmission, an overhaul of the axle and transfer case components, and a refresh of the braking components. Additional equipment includes 15” wheels, 31” tires, front disc brakes, Bilstein shocks, front bucket seats trimmed in black cloth upholstery, three-point front seatbelts, and rear lap belts. This CJ-5 is now offered with parts receipts, an owner’s manual, and a clean Michigan title in the seller’s name.”
Bill spotted this one. It appears to have a 1955 or 1956 CJ-5 chassis (reversed front springs and has a PTO bar setup in the back), but with an M-38A1 body (though the grille is CJ).

Maury shared this nice looking CJ-5 at a Bring-a-Trailer auction.

“This 1967 Jeep CJ-5 is finished in white over black vinyl upholstery and powered by a 225ci Dauntless V6 mated to a three-speed manual transmission and a dual-range transfer case. It is equipped with a black soft top and doors, along with a roll bar, a Badlands winch, a spare tire carrier, a Hi-Lift jack, 16″ steel wheels, Warn manually locking front hubs, and a K&N air filter. The truck was acquired by the seller in November 2021, and subsequent work reportedly included rebuilding the cylinders heads and a valve job in addition to a refresh of the steering system and replacement of the water pump, fuel pump, and carburetor. This CJ-5 is now offered at no reserve with owner’s and service manuals, partial service records, and a clean Oregon title in the seller’s name.”

“This is a 1956 willys Jeep. Civilian variant of the M38A1 military Jeep. It’s a southern Jeep with a TN title. No mileage on the title because it’s exempt. The cluster has 8k on it. Car starts up runs and drives. Just tuned up with a new carburetor. Tub is steel and is mint with no rust. Frame is also immaculate and had been completely under coated. We have been using it as a beach cruiser. Car has a little Bimini top for the summer. Powered by the original 4cyl. 134cid/70hp 1bbl. Front axle is a Dana 25 and the rear axle is a Dana 44. Tranny is a T90 3 speed. Not trying to field a million questions come look at it. Cash in hand for a ride. Needs some love but not much”
There are two prices listed. $4000 is in the text, while $3000 is the price listed (it may have been dropped to $3000 from $4000).

“Not a wrangler but I had to pick something Two(2) Willys 1st is a 1956 with title. Runs and drives 4×4 works. I bought it with a 1952 motor in it. Put a new clutch in it and have drove it around the farm. Have the motor that came out of it on an engine stand just the way I bought it. He said it ran but was making noise so he swapped it for the 52. 2nd Willys I believe is a 1953. Motor was set up . I tore it apart to rebuild but the block had been cracked so I did not bother. Body is poor. No title. $4000 Take it all. I lost interest .”
Maury spotted this one. The body is supposed to be rust free.

“This is an original 1971 CJ5 jeep with a solid, no rust steel body. It has the rare dauntless oddfire V6 engine that runs great. Pictures with a storage box but it comes with the back seat. Started adding some things but we just don’t have the time to enjoy it. Replaced the headlights and taillights with led, but I still have the originals. Added nerf bars for easier in and out. This jeep is in excellent shape and solid. A great classic to have. You don’t see them like this anymore. Asking 8,000”
This jeep has an unusual paint scheme. It also has a Meyer half cab and probably some Allstate hubs, but I can’t tell for sure.

https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1968-jeep-cj-5-2/
“This 1968 Jeep CJ-5 was acquired by the seller in 2022 following a refurbishment completed under previous ownership that is said to have included a repaint in orange, an interior refresh, installation of a replacement wiring harness, and suspension and brake work. The truck is powered by a 225ci Dauntless V6 mated to a three-speed manual transmission linked with a dual-range transfer and a Warn overdrive unit. Additional equipment includes a BesTop brown soft top with integrated doors and plastic windows as well as a front-mounted Warn winch, Warn manually locking front hubs, 15″ steel wheels, a roll bar, and a Holley carburetor.”
Listed as a 1954, this CJ-5 is more likely 1958-1962 based on the speedo. It has a Monroe 3pt lift, along with a rear PTO and some equipment.

Bill shared this ad for two CJ-5s. The gray one might make a good restore.
