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 .

“1946 Willys CJ2a. Complete. Runs. Clear title. Has a top. Brakes, lights, etc. all work. Original engine I believe. The engine could use a rebuild. I drive it as is. In Reno/Carson area. You will need to ask questions and see it.”
UPDATE Price dropped to $6500.
(12/28/2023) If you are seeking a stock, clean CJ-6, this might be worth a look. Given the 0-9 KS Speedometer, this might be a fairly early 1st-year CJ-6.

“1956 willys cj6. Approximately 20” longer than cj5. 4×4 11” brakes, f head 4 cylinder runs good but needs carb work. 44 rear end. Good tires. Petronics Distributor, still 6 volt all original.”
This is a recent build that has an overheating issue. Maybe a shroud and/or a fan spacer would help.

“Runs drives stops needs front drive shaft put in was removed for transport no paper work has rust but frame is great price is”
If the floors are good, this may be worth a look, though it’s a long drive from most anywhere.

The fourth installment of the 1963 Jeep News shifted back to eight pages with this issue. It’s clear from the front pages thus far in 1963 that the Wagoneer and Gladiators were popular additions to the jeep line up. Each month seemed to bring reports of new sales highs.
Also interesting on page one is the reference to Wide World of Sports (WWOS) filming the 1963 Jeeporama near Boulder, Colorado. Unfortunately, I had no luck finding any WWOS episodes related to that filming.
Page two brings us the story of Noble Trenham and Dean Fisher, a pair of adventurers who went around the world in a modified FC-170. Their story includes their interrogation by Colombian officials who didn’t believe they were on a goodwill tour. The situation looked dire until they produced evidence of attending USC; it turned out their interrogators were familiar with two local boys who were also attending USC. You can read that story here: https://issuu.com/trailsmag/docs/august-2012/25, which is part of a series titled A True TrailBlazer in Trailblazer magazine (series starts with this April issue).
The article also mentioned that a book was in the works. Well, the work took decades, because it wasn’t until 2018 that a book was finally published by Dean Fisher (if there’s an earlier book, I didn’t find it in my brief searches). I just bought a copy, so I’ll let you know what I think: https://www.amazon.com/Roads-Peoples-Birds-Mountaintops-Billabongs/dp/1622881877 .
Page three of this Jeep news shares one of the more interesting DJ-3A ice cream trucks I’ve ever seen. I wonder what ever happened to it? Also on page three, the page reported that the Sareea Al Jamel 4WD Club of Indio’s annual desert trip drew 322 vehicles and 978 people!
Pages four, five and six celebrate the 60th year of the company, starting with Overland. Page seven includes a variety of photos, including a CJ-3B, which is a surprise given those rigs had been ignored by the editors of Jeep News for years!
Page eight tells the story of the “Jeep mounted band”, while a photo farther down on the page shows another example of a Virgin Islands FC used as a tour jeep (here is a different example).
This issue of jeep news included a handy index to locate information within earlier editions of the newsletter. That would have been handy to have for the regular Jeep News issues as well.

Headlights and rear lights work fine. Solid runner! Open to trades or offers. Motivated seller, pls feel free to reach out!”
My guess is that these doors fit a CJ-5 hardtop, but I’m not sure. I am sure I’ve seen this style before, but can’t place them.

“Old doors for the willy. Not sure what model they are from”
It’s got slight damage, but maybe someone can use it?

“One pc front clip for pre 1972 CJ-5. Grill fenders, hood all in one. Good shape not perfect , inner fenders included, comes with hardware to keep the fender tails tightly secured to the cowl. This is the quality thinkness for a driver jeep not the ultra thin racing version.
The new retail price for these is 850$ and that’s without the grill.
Also fits the cowl line of CJ-7, CJ-6 CJ-8 scrambler, willys, M38-A1, DJ-5, disbatch, postal, Jeepster Commando and wrangler YJ but some mods might be necessary install on these Jeeps”
