About eWillys
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.
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 .
(10/04/2010) Al spotted this CJ-5. It appears to be in really good shape.
“Jeep Willys. I think it is a mid 1950’s model. The jeep runs and drives great, four wheel drive works perfectly. It has a four cylinder engine and three speed manual transmission. It comes with new soft top and doors and back seat. Tires are excellant. It has little rust considering its age. Please call or text 205-568-7830”
The hardtop looks in great shape. It appears there’s another CJ-5 right next to it.
“Nice old CJ with a sweet running 283 chevy engine. Has a tow bar .. Will consider partial or full trades for 20 K generator 4×4 atv or things other than cars , pickups or SUVS. I have too many road vehicles already.”
This looks pretty solid that the Utah Office spotted.

(08/07/2010) This might be a good price given the restoration.
“This is a beautifully restored Willys CJ5. The following is a partial list of new items on a fresh restoration: Windshield frame and glass, wiring, horn and steering wheel, recored original radiator, seats for both front and back, headlights, tailights and housings, turn signal and column switches, waterpump, pulley and belt, stainless dual winshield wiper motors with blades, all gaskets are new, new Solex carb for trouble-free running, (original carb saved) all new brakes and cylinders, 5 new Grabber At tires, the list goes on and the receipts total way over the asking price. She runs and drives beautifully. The paint is gorgeous! This jeep was originally an M38 and I have most of the original parts including seat frames. You can’t buy a nice quadrunner at this price! Thanks for looking. My apologies to all that called last week. I was out of town and unable to show the vehicle. Please try again. I will trade for a Harley or older Brit bike. If offering a trade, please keep in mind that I have way underpriced this Jeep and your trade should reflect that as well. Thank you for looking. 315 492 9983 leave message. Please don’t email.”
“I bought this from an acquaintance who needed the money. It would make a cool project, but not for me. I’m from the west where this kind of rust means the vehicle is long gone. Since moving here I’ve heard people describe this condition as “restorable” or “just a lot of surface rust”. Yeah, except both sides of each surface have rusted to form holes. It ran as of a year ago when I parked it here in the weeds, but while taking pictures I noticed the carb has been uncovered all year. It has push button start, and sounded like it was running on 3 of 4 cylinders when it ran. Plenty of blue smoke to entertain the neighbors with.
Before too long it will get hauled to the salvage yard, it’s worth $250 in steel to me, hence the price. But I’d rather see it go to someone who’ll use it or at least parts of it. I have a clear title from 1989. Brake line is missing, carb leaks fuel. It might be handy for some extra parts though, the grill and hood are decent, and there’s an extra grill included. It also has the PTO drive included. I have no idea if it’s complete, I just know I have a small steel pan with gears in it that bolts to the underside to run a PTO. I also have the original Willys tailgate, which would make a better garage decor than a tailgate because of rust. But it looks cool. The tires in the back are from my Ranger, they are about the same size as the Jeep’s and in better condition, they’ll go with the Jeep also.”
