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 $1600.
It runs and drives.
“1957 jeep 4 cylinder 3 speed many newer parts no heater/ runs and drives”
Lots of work has been done on this CJ-5. Listed as a ’56, it has the 0-10 early speedo, so this may actually be a 1955.

“1956 JEEP WILLYS RESTORED OFF THE FRAME & READY TO GO, Xtra parts as well”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2750.
Has a half top, a rear PTO and a snow plow. Body has rust. No description provided.
Could used some interior work, but I’ve always liked the look of the commando front on the CJ-5.

“RARE****Original CJ5 accessory! CJ5 Top and Doors complete with glass. All of it is in good shape with a little surface rust and no holes. Easy to repaint and sand rust off on this one. The brand of the top is Meyer Cabs. Came off of a 1974 CJ5 but Meyer Cabs were mostly built in the 1960s and only for CJ5 and CJ6 Jeeps.”
Earlier in September Bernt used his CJ-5 and trailer to work on the local train tracks.
Years ago, he had a chance to bring home a retired trolley engine, seen in the pic below:
He repaired it and now it is used for events like the Oldtimerfruender event.
The serial number for the body is from a 1962 DJ-3A.

“It’s a 56 Jeep Willy’s everything is there except the windshield . It needs a little tlc. I’m moving, and don’t have the time.Its turns over with the original 4cyl flat head motor.theres just no spark .I’m pretty firm on the price”
Travis spotted this CJ-5 with a fiberglass body (a type I haven’t seen). Looks like a good price.

“This is a project I bought doesn’t run but turns over, original frame and driveline, fiberglass tube, original dash hood grill for metal, converted to 12v system, I have no title just BOS”
If the top’s any good (Koenig?), this is worth a look.

“Not sure of the year, but guessing 56. It is a little rough, but very usable. No title.”
Looks like a good price. I love the Kelly half cab.
