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 .
Craig shared this one. I wouldn’t say this is an “easy” restoration, but sounds like it may have a good engine.

“green body, in need of great repair. Possibly will take offer within the asking price. Jeep needs to literally be rebuilt to some degree. I listed it rebuilt meaning the buyer would have to assume some of that responsibility. Thanks”

UPDATE: Still Available.
(06/05/2017) Craig spotted this plow jeep with a unique color scheme. Look slick there’s value.
“1964 Willys Jeep with 6 ft snow, 4 cyl, hardtop with wind up windows, fully functional plow goes up and down (no power angle), starts right up, brakes work, lights work, etc.
This is a good Jeep for plowing your lot, drive, or whatever. Currently not licensed or inspected, do not know what it would take for inspection. The hardtop and plow are worth more than half the asking price. Body has been patched and was painted Red, White and Blue. Very patriotic but not very pretty. This is no SHOW JEEP, it runs good and stops good and will make a good plow Jeep.
NO WARRANTIES, HISTORY, OR PROMISES, SOLD AS-IS, WHERE-IS. Please don’t call with low ball offers. If you’re really interested, make an appointment, come look, bring CASH and we’ll talk. I will NOT talk price with anyone over the phone with out you having seen the Jeep.”
https://harrisburg.craigslist.org/cto/6185069749.html
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $500.
Jim shared this ad. The Meyer hardtop looks worth $500 by itself.
“65 cj with metal top, no motor, pretty good condition given the year. Would be a nice project. 500$ or best offer cash in hand gets it. Would have loved to have made it mine but moving can’t take with. Has solid roll cage as well. A true anitique but still in good shape, was a mail carrier.”
Seller won’t sell to someone outside Washington State.
“Running driving 1960 Willys. Removable hard top with steel doors. The CJ is stock with an f head 4 cyl. 3 speed. Permanent plates. Comes with a solid spare tub. The tub on it is pretty rusty. Comes with a set of stock steel wheels a spare tow bar rear hitch and a couple other small spares. Would make a fun little hunting rig. You can fix it up or you just enjoy it as it is with all of it’s “patina” for as we used to call it RUST. Please keep your calls and texts to decent hours. No I don’t need help selling it no I will not return out-of-state inquiries.”

https://sfbay.craigslist.org/nby/cto/6182309549.html
It’s a pretty clean jeep overall. Seller notes the paint isn’t all that great, but it doesn’t look all that bad in the pics either.
“56 CJ5 Originally from Arizona, very straight. Warn overdrive. Warn hubs. Ramsey winch. Dick Cepek jerry can and spare carrier. Roll bar. Tow bar.
New: complete engine overhaul. Starter, alternator, carburetor, fuel pump, gas tank, wheels, spare, wipers, turn signals, speedometer and more.
Almost New: brakes, wheel cylinders, hoses, front end, clutch, exhaust, tires and more,
Bought to fix up for daughter but things changed. Fresh paint over faded old but didn’t cover well do to my inability as a painter . I have more paint so could be fixed by someone else.”
https://greatfalls.craigslist.org/cto/6140442693.html
Seller is also selling the trailer, but it’s not clear if the trial is included in the price or not.
“1956 Willys Jeep stored inside for last 30 years until recently so body is pretty good for it age. No holes is floor board. Engine is original 4 cylinder but condition is unknown. Some components under the hood are missing. Serial no. is 41589 and I believe it is a CJ-3B model. Sits on well-built trailer with ramps and has new wheel bearings and races both sides. Have titles for both jeep and trailer. Prefer to sell both but will sell separately.”

Maury spotted this silver anniversary CJ-5.
“1979 Jeep CJ-5 SA: This extremely rare Jeep is an incredible investment opportunity. In the second half of 1979 Jeep built less than 1000 of the CJ 5 Silver Anniversary editions. There are an estimated 40 still in existence today with any chance of being restored. Less than 10 with the original motor and transmission and no rust! That makes this one of only 10 left in the world. I encourage you to do some research yourself into the collectibility of this rare vehicle. They will only go up in value!
It is “Car Show Clean” and ready to drive across country. Just add gas and enjoy. With 54,000 original miles this Jeep does well on the road, never sees mud and drives like a dream. It was garage kept for most of its life and only driven around town. The original front seats were replaced with aftermarket along with the steering wheel and shift knob. The original Silver Anniversary emblem is still on the glove compartment door and the VIN can be verified.”
Craig shared this parts/project CJ-5.
“I got a 1959 jeep Willy for sale, has a 4 cut engine but it is seized. Would be a great project for somone, body is all there rust isn’t to bad but does have some. No hole in the frame. Don’t have title but can do a bill of sale. 500 bucks or trade for a quad or dirt bike”
