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. This section used to be split into jeeps, parts and other categories, but recent changes to eBay will require this information to be recoded.
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 .

David Eilers Collection – Four Vintage Jeeps for Sale, Prosser, WA
Dave sent over his collection of Jeeps for posting, “used to run eWillys” is a huge understatement here. But we all fully appreciate Dave’s time and dedication put into the eWillys and the Jeep World to provide this great platform and body of work saving and archiving a huge collection of Willys History. Wishing Dave the best as he navigates his health issue. Keeping you in our thoughts, and if you need anything please keep us in mind. Here is the info Dave sent over – Thanks Tim
My name is David Eilers. I used to run eWillys.com. I am selling my four vintage jeeps due to an unexpected health issue. I don’t NEED to sell them, but prudence dictates I do. Email me at d@deilers.com or contact me at 831-325-9616 for questions.
==========================
#1 PNW4WDA Race Jeep $7000
This lacks a title and is not road legal. It runs and drives. I rebuilt it two years ago and raced it a couple times in 2024. It is fun, fun, fun to drive! It has a built Chev 350 with plenty of power. The body is a very rare fiberglass Parkette racing shell. The frame is widened five inches. The front springs have been reversed, while the back springs include a sway bar. It starts right up, runs and stops. The only issue is that it can overheat. I *think* the issue is that the brakes need to be adjusted as it may be fighting them. It includes additional desert dogs and other tires, along with some rims. There are extra seat belts and other parts. An unexpected health issue forces sale.
See it running here: https://www.ewillys.com/2023/09/24/testing-out-the-complete-race-jeep/ or here: https://www.ewillys.com/tag/leftovers-racer/
==========================
#2 1949 CJ-3A Parts Jeep built on a 1973 CJ-5 frame. $2000
The fullcage is built for the body and attaches in six spots to the frame. This jeep does not run, but does have a title. It will need to be trailered. This is a custom build with outboarded springs in the rear and reversed springs in the front. It has a rebuilt V-6, but that was rebuilt ten years ago. It has not been started. It has a T-98 transmission and a Dana 20 transfer case box with Dana 18 gears. It has a Dana 44 locker in the rear and an open Dana 30 in the front. The body is a modified fiberglass Bobcat body with a custom fiberglass hood and fenders (both lengthened about 6 inches). This includes a never-mounted tan Kayline top. There’s a lot of value there. (Other pics prior to disassembly https://www.ewillys.com/2012/08/06/just-a-few-updates-today-monday/)
==========================
1956 DJ-3A Convertible $4500
This early convertible two-wheel-drive DJ-3A is pretty near stock with a very solid body and front clip. The convertible DJ-3A model has the solid back, 2/3 1/3 front seat, column shift, and a few other unique features. This does not have the original convertible top (there are only two or three left in the US). It was originally purchased out of Patterson, California, by an Apricot farmer. He added a couple features including a very rare vacuum tank under the driver’s side to support the dual vacuum windshield wipers. This also has the original early King-Seeley 0-10 speedometer seen in early CJ-5s and CJ-6s. This runs and drives, but could use some alignment work. The brakes will stop, but they could use some work. The original paint (Presidential red?) was covered over by the original owner to a warmer red/orange. I took this up to Alaska as part of the Alaska Or Rust vintage jeep event in 2017, which is why it has signatures on it (I got folks to sign it along the way and we added stickers). I had no plans to sell this, but an unexpected health issue forces sale. $4500 You can see it running here: Today I discovered a leak in the electric fuel pump, so I will have to fix that.
==========================
#4 1962 FC-170 Tour Jeep.
The cab of this jeep is from an original FC-Tour jeep. This cab is extremely rare, one of five or six. This is a project. These FCs were originally built in Colorado for the San Juan Scenic Jeep Tour Company.
You can see two restored FC tour jeeps here: https://thefcconnection.com/vacations_with_the_tour_jeep.htm. My FC Tour Jeep sits on a 2000 Ford Explorer Chassis. When I bought it, it ran, but barely stopped. I was told it was ready to be driven on roads. However, once I spent time with it, I discovered that there were numerous defects that made it unroadworthy and unsafe. So, I was forced to rebuild the cab area. I rewired it, installed hi-range-low-range capability, redid the steering and master brake up, and much more. It was not a project I was looking to undertake, but I made good progress until I ran into health issues. You can see all the pics here: https://www.ewillys.com/tag/fc-tour-jeep-build/?orderby=date&order=ASC $15,000.
I bought this with a three-axle trailer and am willing to sell it an additional $5000.
This pic shows (top) how I was going to rebuild the bed using the existing roll bars, (middle) how it looked when I bought it and (bottom) what I believe to be the original passenger setup.
1971 Honda CB500-Four K0 $6,500 Hailey, ID
This is Pete’s over at OWF he posted it over there, it’s a nice Bike. Not a Willys but worth the share he is a great supporter of all things Willys.
https://www.oldwillysforum.com/forum/index.php?threads/motorcycles.26327/page-16#post-407195
Information from seller:
I’ve decided to sell my 1971 Honda CB500-Four K0. I spent about 18 months doing a frame off restoration on the bike. Every part of the bike has been cleaned, polished, or painted. The fuel tank was stripped, primed and painted with 4 coats of Toyota Calvary Blue and 6 coats of 2k Clear over the paint and stripes. The inside of the tank was acid cleaned and lined. New seals and bearings throughout, complete new wiring harness, new brakes, new rims and spokes on polished original hubs, new tires, new Delkavic four into one exhaust, new coils and plug wires, new clutch, new rear shocks, rebuilt and polished front forks, new chain, new signal lights, new seat, new handlebars grips and all switch controls, new mirrors, new clutch, brake, speedo, and tach cables, and more. The bike runs perfectly and rides like a new 1971 Honda. The only cosmetic defects are the front fender which had a dent that has been straightened, and the points cover has scratches on it. It’s a beautiful bike, and is roadworthy to take you anywhere. It’s a blast to ride. I’m only selling to move on to another project. Asking $6500 OBO. Willing to trade for a clean Audi TT MK1.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $350. This was listed in Loganville, GA, in January of 2024. The price is dropped and is now for sale in Batesville, MS. It looks like the 305 engine was removed, hence the lower price. Thanks to Brad for updating us.
This body appears to be a Parkette style body (with the site swooshes) with a Bobcat type hood, but assembled together as a single drag-like body.
“Has a Ford 9” rear end on it. Pretty heavy so good scrap. I do have a forklift to load on trailer.”
