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 $1200.
(03/16/2014) I think this is the sixth different wagon-into-trailer that I’ve listed (see here for the others). Kent Frost‘s has been the nicest I’ve seen.
“Willy’s wagon made into pull behind camper in the 1960’s. Has the hard to find ambulance or ‘barn doors’ in back. I used to pull it behind my Willys to swap meets. Have the parts to make this complete for street rod / rat rod / rock climber / etc. $1200. as is.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $28,000.
(06/16/2014) Lots of polish on this M-170.

Doug picked up this CJ-6 recently. As you can see, this is an example of a jeep that was nicer than the pics taken by the seller. It’s a really good looking jeep, especially with those hurricane rims 🙂
These are the new pics. Doug was able to get some good cloudy-day photos that helped show just how nice the paint is.
New Photos:
Old photos: Between the shadows and the lack of closeups, it’s hard to tell just how nice the paint really is.
Starting in 1942 Dell Publishing issued an annual christmas comic book titled “Santa Claus Funnies”. The very first issue featured Santa driving a jeep. The series ran until 1962. Here’s a link to check on the most recent Santa Claus Funnies available on eBay.
You can learn more about Santa Claus Funnies from the Golden Age of Comics website. 
In a comment from the post about the FC-150 review by Tom McCahill, Mike remembered seeing McCahill’s review about the Jeep Wagoneer. It didn’t take me long to find a cheap copy of the May 1966 issue (pg 87) that featured the surprisingly enthusiastic review of the Jeep.
Looking for something else, I ran across this christmas card.

This is a cool postcard. I wonder if it was based on a painting?
Marc forwarded this ebay photo. I never look at one of these photos and think, ‘Yeah, that’s a good idea’.

Here’s a truck updated with a diesel.
“FOR SALE. 1957 Jeep Pickup Willys. Very Clean on top underneath. All over. It has been inside stored for the last ten years. And…. It’s a diesel.!! It has a six cylinder Nissan diesel. I’m not sure what it came out of but it runs really well. It is a 4 speed standard with first gear very low compound range. The 4 wheel drives work too. Warn hubs. The bed is clean.
Looks like the Jeep driven on Mountain Men show.
Asking $6,000. Current tag. Title in our name. We have owned it for the last ten years.
It has a button for the glow plugs. I’ll investigate why it is not working. Currently you have to shoot a bit of starting fluid to get it to fire off. Runs great after that though.”
UPDATE: Still Available

UPDATE Price dropped to $28,000.
“Up for auction is a very rare (1 of 1,119) 1964 Kaiser Jeep Forward Control 170 3/4 ton pickup truck. 1964 was the last year of production for the FC-170 and the end of the Kaiser/Jeep era. This could be your only chance to ever buy a fully restored FC-170, no kidding they are that rare.
This Jeep was fully restored by a professional shop in 2010, not some father son project in a back yard. The attention to detail speaks to this fact. Since restoration the Jeep has accumulated approximately 1000 proven miles.
The Jeep was restored to original with a few modern upgrades. The seats are a bucket type that are fully adjustable. Custom 33 gallon fuel tank with stainless steel filler neck. Custom made rear bumper with built in LED tail lights. LED side marker lights. Two storage lids were fabricated behind the seats to cover the battery and a storage area. Engine will run on unleaded fuel.
The teal green is the original color as is the white grill and white wheels. An additional pin stripe was added around the white accent.
The front winch bumper was most likely a dealer add on. It has a Ramsey 8000 lbs PTO driven winch with 50′ of cable.
Engine and transmission were fully rebuilt and hardened valve seats were added to the engine so unleaded fuel can be used. ”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5000.
The drain holes have been filled.
“Runs great, new paint job, everything works on it. Less than 30,000 miles. Asking 5000 OBO”
This might be worth a look. Needs the radiator replaced/fixed.
“Please read the AD…it helps out and lists all information necessary
$1700 or best offer…
-1959 CJ-5
-Original 4-cylinder, engine and trans have been completely rebuilt with all new fluids etc.
-3 speed trans-rebuilt
-33″ all terrain tires (will need to be replaced at some point).
-in decent shape for its age and what it has come from. the floor pans are in tough shape from previous owner but the metal is there and I purchased the passenger side floor pan which is bolted, not welded in yet. was sanded and primored before being painted
-Radiator will need to be replaced or welded, it has a leak in the bottom. but have been told it can be fixed.
-generator will need to be rebuilt or replaced or you can convert it and go with an alternator which is probably the better option unless you are restoring to original.
-Ran and drove last summer until the radiator sprung the leak. so it has been sitting since. Motor cranks just fine, but will not get started due to the lack of power coming from the generator, battery is all but dead.
We never planned on more than just using it as a little street cruiser or towing it behind out camper when needed. The body isnt in great shape, but for what it is, it is a great street cruiser and a fun jeep to just drive around and beat up and have a little fun in. Gears shift great, and cruises at about 45 mph without a problem. THIS IS NOT A HIGHWAY VEHICLE! a great restoration project or a great little vehicle for a beat around town kind of toy. Or to turn into an off road vehicle.
No trades, looking for cash.
Call after 5:00 PM or text at any time”
