About eWillys
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.
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 .

The is second in the series from Sybert’s Garage. You can view Part I here.
This explanation from Episode 1’s post shares why Tom and his son are rebuilding the jeep:
“My parents have a summer cottage in Northern Wisconsin. Our neighbors, who have passed away with the daughter living there now, had an old MB jeep. It was painted violet because at the time Janet’s dad asked her what color he should paint it as a little girl.
The jeep sat in her garage for years and each time we went to visit we tried to get her started. The mice had made it their home, eating all the electrical wires. The radiator leaked, brakes and clutch did not function and we realized we never had enough time to truly spend on getting her running whenever we visited. We asked for permission to bring her back to our garage in Wisconsin, fix her up and return her to Janet.
Janet’s dad served in WWII in the Army and I know he would be proud to see Janet driving his jeep today.”
(08/07/2018) Looks in good shape. Has the driver’s side floor been patched or filled?
“ALL ORIGINAL! except for wheels, tires and paint. 54,349 original miles. This jeep is in excellent condition for a 43 year old jeep. This is NOT a restored vehicle. Some work would be required to make it perfect. Restored, these CJ6’s go for $20,000. Runs great! Drives great! 3 speed manual. Power steering. Soft top. 33″ Procomp tires. 258 inline six. Rebuilt front suspension. Dash was not painted and is still the original color of the jeep. I do have a set of the older, Willys style rims that I would be willing to throw in with asking price.”
“Great condition-runs great and is ready to enjoy. Almost fully restored with new radiator; water pump; hoses; thermostat; temperature sensor. 12 volt conversion with new wiring and gauges. New tub, wheels, and tires. New brake system including lines and cylinders. New carburetor, plugs, and wires. New gas tank and fuel sensor.”
