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 rough, purpose-rebuilt FJ.

“1973 Toyota FJ40 Land Cruiser with plow for parts. Sold on Bill of sale only. Complete motor, trans, rear end. NO TEXT MESSAGES. If you are interested please call me.”
Bill sent this link for a reasonably priced FJ-40. I don’t know how accurate the restoration is so far, but based on other prices I’ve seen, this seems to be a pretty reasonable one.

“1977 FJ40 TOYOTA LAND CRUISER FOR RESTORATION
This is a project I took on 2 years ago. I have gotten it to yard drive but it still needs more work. I fell into a deal with a gorgeous 1965 T-Bird and I just haven’t had the bandwidth to dedicate myself to the Land Cruiser.
Quick History: This vehicle was on the road until 2012, from that point on it sat in a gentleman’s driveway until 2018 when I bought it off him. He had owned it since 1985 and done some adventures up in Canada with it. He had even installed an auxiliary fuel tank to get extended range. During his ownership he had the engine rebuilt TOP and BOTTOM, the engine is NICE.
Since I bought it, I worked initially on getting it running. I replaced the original carburetor and it ran well. The cooling system and heater hoses were in terrible shape and I replaced them all with heavy duty clamps.
Unfortunately, at one point I switched the fuel source to the aux tank and it seemed to clog the fuel delivery. Long story short, there is an issue getting fuel to the carb, although I replaced the fuel pump, and filter.
What the vehicle still needs:
There is rust on the steel exterior body panels, especially the windshield frame and the bib. But the tub is aluminum and in fine shape. The fenders are fiberglass and doing great! The frame has rust. To make it off-road worthy you should reinforce several spots.
You will need to replace the exhaust system.
Tires hold air really well and have good tread, but are older.
Then you need to deal with the fuel problem. I would recommend a new fuel tank and new fuel hoses. A new mechanical fuel pump (if you need it, I put in a new one) is not expensive).
Ideally I would like to sell the seats separately to get some of my investment back, but I am flexible. So if you def want the seats, we can talk.
This is not a sale; it’s more of an adoption! I would like to talk on the phone first and then show you the vehicle.
I have the title in hand!
Here’s a video of the cruiser starting:
Bill shared this rare FJ-55 Landcruiser. I can’t speak to the rareness, but I do think the 50-year-old design has held up pretty well.
https://longisland.craigslist.org/cto/d/west-babylon-1972-toyota-land-cruiser/7228454177.html
“These are very rare, you see all the rest of the Toyotas advertised for sale but rarely an FJ55! 1972 Toyota FJ55 has the original F1 inline 6 motor and original 3 speed transmission and is running and driving well. (these don’t drive the greatest anyway! LOL) Nice older original colors paint job with hardly a nick or scratch in the entire truck if any! Has pretty good shine too, looks original. It was stored mostly after it was painted and the gentleman was working on it.
Odometer reads 22k mi so probably 122k. Pretty original interior in pretty good shape. Original tags are pictured clearly. Truck has most of it’s original parts if not all. The lights work, even the reverse lights. Gauges do not work and I can’t get the back window to work so that will need repair, the back panel comes off with 6 screws or so and everything is right there to repair it. Very little rust underneath but there is a couple of small spots.”
Looks like a fair price. The seller saved this from a crusher.

(07/05/2019) Craig shared this nice looking Jeepney. It’s got a number of cool details, including a map of the midwest painted on the ceiling. Listed as a 1946, I couldn’t say for sure if that year is accurate or not.

“1946 F-134, T-90 3 speed, if you want a vehicle to take to the car and Jeep shows that will always bring a smile and draw a crowd this is it!! Super rare to find in this country, Jeepneys were made after WWII when we left our Jeeps in the Philippines, the people there were very crafty and creative, they turned the WWII Army Jeeps into colorful people haulers, there are only a few in this country, here is your chance for a cool vehicle for your collection that is guaranteed to stand out.”
Has an updated engine.

“1967 Jeep Gladiator J3000 pickup with factory 327 Rambler motor and 4spd transmission. Ran when parked a few years ago. Don’t have time or space for this one, so time to let it go. Has typical J truck rust, but better than most in the northeast. Comes with extra fenders, doors, hood, seats and other parts. I purchased it out of CT so no title, but I’ll be happy to fill out paperwork to get a registration for it. Consider full/partial trades for metal brake, bigger air compressor, 4 or 5′ brush hog, mechanics toolbox, york rake, equipment or car trailers. Email with any questions.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $5400.

“1946 Military Willys CJ2A has a lot invested into it. I have really enjoyed it but it’s time to part ways. It needs some work. Pm for more details it won’t let me type anymore. Needs timing and has exposed wires. I didn’t do the build but you can tell by looking what it’s got! It’s an all custom build and one of a kind. It’s not a Willy’s title as that was lost a long time ago. So what it has is a Clean Suzuki samurai title from the frame, engine, and transmission. It’s powered by a rebuilt fuel injected samurai motor and transmission which is a 1.6L 4 speed manual transmission with 4hi and 4L. It has brand new spark plugs, plug wires, distributor motor, Distributor cap, and rotor. 5.13 gears with a rear E-locker that is geared to be on all of the time, Toyota Land Cruiser FJ60 front and rear axles, FJ60 leaf springs, and FJ60 front manual center locking hubs. Make offer. No low ballers please.”
Not a whole lot of value here. Might be worth it for a parts vehicle for another Champ.

Given this has a PTO, I imagine there’s value here for FJ-40 folks.

“This amphibious 4 wheeler is a rare find in excellent condition. Created back in the 60’s with articulating tubs the Coot is able to climb over most anything. Used for hunting, feeding livestock and for puttering around in the water ( has the capability to add a propeller) it was state of the art in it’s time. Includes headlights,taillights and winch. The tires are literally brand new. Powered by a Honda engine. We have sold our rural property and no longer have a use for this awesome little vehicle. Time for someone new to enjoy her.”

Not a jeep, but a unique vehicle for sure. The “house” is framed in 2x4s. That’s got to be heavy.

“Looking to build a fish house, a she shed, or a tiny house? Here’s a start! Built on a toyota dolphin chassis, 5 speed manual transmission with the 22R engine. Needs to be finished out, and the engine needs fuel lines at least probably a battery or two also. Or it could be removed from the pickup and turned into a she-shed. There are many possibilities! The camper portion measures about 7 feet x 12 feet on the floor with a 4 foot cab over section. It has full 8 foot walls inside 2×4 construction vaulted ceiling. Outside measures about 12 foot 6 inches tall and almost 16 feet long by almost 8 feet wide.”
This is just odd. This price can’t be correct, but it seems to be listed on this ad and on the dealership facebook page. Strangely, every other vehicle on the company’s FB page is exceptionally low, too. Something doesn’t seem right.

And now this … just in time for Halloween is this unusual marriage between a jeep and a Honda Civic!

Chris’ jeep club is auctioning this jeep off with the proceeds going to the American Cancer Society.
View all the information on eBay
“Up for sale we have a first year 1987 Jeep Wrangler YJ. This jeep is being sold with 100% of the sale being donated to the American Cancer Society. This Jeep was a generous donation that our local jeep club received from a private owner. It has a clear California title. It is currently not running. We have determined the engine is a 4.2 liter that has been converted to fuel injection. This is not a 4.0.
The jeep was in the process of a full restoration when we received it but as you can tell, it needs to be completed. This was at some time a full frame off restoration. You can tell from the pictures that the frame is in excellent condition. Interior: the interior was in the process of being restored and we feel the majority of all interior parts are included. It includes an after market steel locking console. All three seats are in great shape as well. Original keys and most of the interior parts are original.Tub: the tub is wonderful condition as well. Inside floor boards and rear deck are rust free. The front clip is in good shape with a small ding on the drivers side front fender.
UPDATE: Still Available.

Maury shared this ad. It seems a pretty solid jeep, especially for the southeast. Seller is a dealer. The worst ‘damage’ seems to be the driver’s seat.

“You are looking at a 1967 Kaiser Jeep J3000 pickup. This Jeep is 4 wheel drive pickup and is an amazing vehicle…This vehicle has a 327 V8 engine with an automatic transmission, power steering, power brakes, factory air conditioning and factory bucket seats. It is a long bed truck and the inside of the bed only has 2 very small dents in it. It is a very solid truck. We have had it running but have not driven it yet. As it sits right now you can own this vehicle for only $5,000 which I feel is very fair for a vehicle like this one with the potential that this vehicle has.”
