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 .

Here’s a rare CJV-35U for sale. Thanks to Charles for spotting it. The jeep is also documented at the CJ-V35U page.
“This pains me to have to sell this Jeep. I searched several years for one of these. I’ll go into details about the history of the CJV-35U, simply Google it and you’ll get all the info you need. This particular unit is in overall good shape. It was running and driving when I got it off a tree farm in Montana. It had a Buick V6 in it when I got it and was really a poor cobbled together job. It also had 3 heaters in it. The V6 is long since gone and two of the heaters removed. Why do I bring this up? The firewall has several extra holes in it and the floor has been beat out in places to clear the engine. I’ve spent the last couple of years gathering up parts to restore it back to a 4 cyl driver. I have a rebuilt engine, it was to be used as a welding machine engine and has a industrial head on it. It ran great with less than 2 hours on it. I have two extra auto heads to replace the industrial one. I have a new clutch, new gas tank, and on and on. There are way too many parts to list. Windshield and gasket is new. Other than one tailgate I’m keeping all Willys parts go with it. New exhaust system, new brake lines. It has been converted to 12v with a 1-wire alternator. I have the floor sheet metal to repair the damaged area. I’m moving back to Florida in a few weeks and simply have no energy left to do the project. Please understand, the price listed is a fair price and I have no motivation to go any lower or give it away. The input shaft for the tranny had been changed out for one to accommodate the Buick engine. I’ve ordered a new one and expect it today.”
UPDATE: Was on eBay. **SOLD**
Placed in the road by Australians, this is definitely a ‘driver’s beware’ sign.

This ’61 has a brand new steel body. New steel fenders and windshield frame with new glass. Has the original hood, grille, and tail gate. This CJ-5 comes with the original frame as well that has been sand blasted and painted. IT IS IN ABSOLUTELY M-I-N-T CONDITION!!!

“1963 Willys CJ3B Jeep
This is an original High Hood, Flat Fender, Four Wheel Drive, Universal Jeep from Willys. It is VERY unique and reasonably rare (in this condition). It turns more heads than a Lamborghini Gallardo. If you are shy and don’t like attention, this car may not be for you.
It came off a farm in Virginia. A friend and I restored it and removed all Bondo patches and replaced them with steel. Our goal was to take it back to as original condition as possible. All original running gear. 4 Wheel Drive system works fine. Manual Lockout hubs. Correct lights and heater. It has a “Granny’ gear that will climb a tree.
I am looking to trade it for a 1940 through 1956 Pick-Up truck (Any size up to 3 ton) with:
-Ford, Chevrolet or Dodge
-Mostly or all original (No modifications that can be seen)
-Running and driving
-Good interior
-Solid body and frame
-Good paint.
-It doesn’t need to be SHOW condition.”
