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 .
Maury’s assembling a thread at the Early CJ-5 page of factory images or nearly original CJ-5 engine compartment photos. Hopefully, some more folks have photos they can contribute.

In all the 40 years that I’ve owned my 1966 CJ5, it never looked this clean, not sure I would want a engine compartment looking that clean, I guess what I’m trying to say is You don’t want a picture of my engine compartments. Grease and oil give a vehicle character, To each his own.
Mike. I believe it’s just for research purposes to help document how the compartment should look for folks who want to properly restore their CJ-5s.
Dave, thanks for setting me straight, I mean that, sometimes my sense of reality is a bit off track. Could be from living in NJ all those years, exhaust fumes from the Garden State Parkway.
No worries 🙂
Oh, that is gorgeous! Wish I still had a factory air cleaner. Must be karma for all the ones I replaced with crome hot rod ones as a teenager, ?
I’ll have to look at my alternator pulleys. That one looks large, maybe because it’s solid and not stamped.
Thanks for the photo. I work at Iron goat Garage and am currently restoring a 1980 cj 5 with an up grade of a AMC 304. So the photo is a great help. this came to as a roling chassis and bare tub so in photos are a great help I will send a photo to you
Kurt,
I’m glad that helped. If you need any other photos, I’m sure we can hunt them down. Feel free to email me directly at d@deilers.com. The early CJ-5 forum is also a good resource for original CJ-5 info: http://www.earlycj5.com/xf_cj5/index.php
Good luck!
