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 .
Might be worth a look given the hardtop and plow.

“I have a non-restored 1969 Jeep CJ5 with only 6,494 miles. NOT 64k. I am the second owner, bought many years ago from original owner who only used it to drive in the winter in Utah. Jeep still has the original 5 Goodyear Suburbanite tires on it, although they are weather cracked but hold air (tube tire). The rear deck on CJ5’s is normally beat, dented, rusted, etc but this rear deck is perfect. Never used for hauling.
UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was $1500.
Top is rough, but it runs and drives.
“1969 Willys CJ5 Jeep
Starts and runs good
Metal top needs some work”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $15,000
(11/20/2014) Nice looking CJ-5. This is from the same collection as the CJ-6 that was available a few days ago.
“Up for auction is an unbelievably original 1965 CJ5 Tuxedo Park with 22,947 original miles. This Jeep has most of its original paint with paint code 226 and trim code of 227. The hood has been replaced due to the original hood being damaged many years ago. The replacement hood is a later style that does not have the typical early CJ water fording cover on the side and the footman loops are in the incorrect location.
This would be an easy fix however to make the Jeep correct again. The hood therefore does not have the original paint nor does the cowl because the paint was blended into the cowl to get a correct match. The Jeep has a 134 overhead four cylinder engine with a 3 speed column shift manual transmission, factory overdrive and 2 speed transfer case.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $15,000.
This former fire jeep has some low mileage.
“I bought this little Jeep Dec. 15, 2010.
Serial number 57548134623
The motor is a ‘JEEP’ 4-CYLINDER F-HEAD “HURRICANE” ENGINE
It had 9,279 miles on it.
Fire Protection District #9 in Nine Mile Falls, WA purchased this Jeep new and date of issue for MOTOR VEHICLE CERTIFICATE OF TITLE was 10/09/61 (I have this document)
This is a very original, clean, rust free little Jeep
Jan. 1, 2012 miles = 10,565
Jan. 1, 2013 miles = 11,409
Jan. 1, 2014 miles = 11,657
Miles on the Jeep today are 11,712
As you can see from the pictures that we simply used it for a casual drive once in awhile, entered it in a few car shows and parades.
I never took this Jeep off roading.
I recorded the odometer every January 1.
My interests have changed and it just isn’t being used any more.
It is time to sell it and let someone else enjoy it!
If you have any questions please call as I am not near my computer most of the day. NO TRADES, Thanks for looking, Bob”
UPDATE: Was $2200. **SOLD**
Given the warn winch and the power locks, this might be worth a look.
“The jeep is in fair condition with some TLC required. There is some rusting and some dents in the body. Needs brake job on the 11 inch brakes. It runs, is drivable and oily. Jeep has a Warn winch, Power lock front differential, power track lock rear differential, full roll cage, like new soft top and many spare parts. If you are looking for a restoration project or a woods/ mud vehicle you should come check out this jeep. Worth more for parts than the asking price.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000.
Listed at $2500, seller says he’ll take $2000. To title and some funky bumpers, but if the floors are solid this might be worth it.
“1963 CJ 5 Jeep. Runs and drives. Has working winch. Nice bumper guard. 4 wheel drive. Good tires. V6. Needs brakes. Top is removable. Gun rack in back window. Need it gone.
Askin $2500 first one here with at least $2000 its theirs. No title- bill of sale.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3000.
(09/16/2014) It’s a project.
“I have for sale a early Jeep CJ5. It is pretty plain with some rust. What makes it special is this is a factory DIESEL Jeep. It came from the factory with a Perkins 4.192 diesel engine! If I am not mistaken, this is the only model Jeep CJ or Wrangler that was sold in America that had a diesel engine. There were less than 300 ever produced. They made some CJ7’s with diesels, but only in Brazil. The story goes, it was originally made for the Air Force to be used as a tug, one of those vehicles that pulls the planes and cargo around the base. It was then bought by a chicken farmer in middle Tennessee and he had it for the majority of its life. It was then sold to a friend who is a diesel mechanic, which is where I found it.
The Jeep is complete, but it is a 49 year old un-restored Jeep. The frame has a good amount of surface rust on it, but it is still in safe & usable shape. The Jeep tub does have rust, if you are going to restore it, it will need floor pans. It was on a chicken farm for most of its life, remind you, but it is by no means a rust bucket. There are little dings and scratches here and there on the tub, but overall in pretty good shape. The hood, fenders and grill are all solid. As far as interior, it has two original bucket seats, but hardly any covering left on them. The Jeep is now a black color, but looks like the original color was a baby blue.
