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 .
Chris spotted this one. The paint might be bubbling up (close up of dash suggests some paint issues).
“1962 Willy’s open cab with folding windshield. Minor rust, motor clean and restored less than 500 miles ago. Turn signals not currently working if I have time they will. Selling for a friend, a great easy project car.”

It includes a plow, too. The hardtop looks unusual It might be a halftop version of a “Keyes” hardtop, so called because the similar full version has a Keyes sticker on the back of it. You can view side and rear views of it on the CJ-3B page (See Derek’s description of Steve Dunkel’s jeep here). Anyone know more about these tops?

It isn’t running at the moment. The hardtop is made from wood. Seller notes he has other parts for sale, too.
“Willys Jeep for restoration or leave as is. The engine was free 2 years ago but is currently tight soaking. I have not tried to see if it is loose yet. Originally came from Texas. Transmission/t-case shifts, needs brakes, should run with some tinkering. I can change the rims/tires if desired. Clear title $1600 obo Possible delivery can be arranged. Lots of other Willys parts available. If its for a Jeep I probably have it. Please call/text (906) two eight seven fourteen hundred NO SCAMMERS!”

Has a Kelly hardtop. Maybe some value here?
“I’ve owned it for 15 years and other than replacing all of the brake lines and putting new tires on it haven’t gotten around to working on it. Used it for a few years to plow my driveway. It was running when I parked about 12 years ago.
It’s a complete vehicle with a hard top.
Also available are new floor panels for the front and rear ($800+) and a 6′ plow that has been sandblasted and repainted.”

Maury spotted this one-off CJ-5 backhoe tractor combo. He wrote, “I was helping my brother in law pick up some car parts this past weekend, and ran across this interesting CJ5-based vehicle. It was made by the guy who owned the business that was selling the car parts, and he told me it was a one-off he created years ago in Michigan in the hope of successfully marketing it.
The CJ5 body was bought new from AMC separately, and installed on the heavy steel frame he created for it. He said the resulting vehicle was the only loader-backhoe he knew of that could go 80 m.p.h.!”
Note the unusual dash on this tux park.
“1964 Kaiser/ Willy Jeep Cj5A Tuxedo Park(rare)
Runs with original 4 cylinder engine with 3 speed on column. Have additional rebuilt Buick 231. Too many updates to list… New paint, new chrome, new wiring, new soft top, new brakes.”

UPDATE: Price dropped to $5500. Looks like a great price.
The seller indicates this has a government plate, so it may well be a military vehicle.
“1974 Army Jeep that is rare and the last of the Jeeps made for the military. Jeep has been lightly used with a new clutch, brakes, muffler, fuel tank , and canvas top. Lock out hubs for front wheel drive. Original Army brass nomenclature plate.
Includes a snow plow for my driveway and my neighbor’s driveways with a manual angle blade. Will plow any storm and traverse the deepest of beach sand. Includes six buckets of sand for rear wheel traction.
I have loved this Jeep for seventeen years,
but regret time is catching up.
Pictures available.
Own a piece of history.’
