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 .
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on $500
This includes a rebuilt engine, though it isn’t installed.
“1966 Jeep with aftermarket solid top, standard on column, 4×4, 4 cylinder, with 6′ MANUAL angle, hydraulic lift plow. This is a project Jeep, does NOT currently run. Needs work, Engine re-built but NOT installed, Needs starter, alternator, battery, etc… to run. This is a cool little Jeep that would make a great winter project.”
There might be some value in this project.
“1964 Jeep CJ5, 4 X 4, manual transmission, 4 cylinder, all original. This jeep was sitting for a while and will need some work to get it running. I am firm in the $1,000 price, dont call if you want it cheaper than that. 786-556-3668”

It might be the carb or a fuel pump. I suspect the problem is cheap to solve. This might have little or no rust.

Brett spotted this find. It appears to include an overdrive, so this might not be a good price. It even runs.
“Very cool Jeep CJ-5, Runs and drives but needs a tune up. Way fun to drive and would be an awesome muddin’ machine. This jeep is rare as in its the old military style. It is a manual and has the 3 little shifters along with gear shifter. i dont know much about it come and buy it today!”

Brett spotted this ad. There is one parts jeep and two running jeeps, though each of the running jeeps has issues.
“I have 3 cj5 jeeps for sale. A 60,62,63 F-head 4cyl style. I bought them for a project but due to my disabilities Its hard to work on them anymore.The 1960 Is all original and runs but has a rod knock.I shut it down right away when it happened to save further damage. It has the hard top with the doors. Original front Seats(full bench) have been recovered. I have title for it.
I bought a 1962(Dont have title so thats the best date I can give of 62 jeep) with the 4 cyl. F-head that is supposed to be good. It’s a parts jeep.
I also bought a 1963,(with title) that has been modified with a 6 cyl. the firewall had to be cut to fit the engine. It runs well but has some leaks. It has a hard top with no doors. All original except the engine,and seats have been replaced with high back bucket seats. The rear seat in it was taken out of a subaru brat. Has roll bar. New gas tank. will be a good runner with a little work. I also have 1 spare 4 cyl F-head engine in the garage that is froze up, but complete for parts. just sat in the elements too long or so I was told from the seller.”
