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 $2500.
This looks like a good restoration project.
“This is a 1965 Tuxedo park IV Jeep its is very rare only 200 made. I want $2500 dollars for it. It has a 3 speed transmission and a buick v 6 engine. the front left fender is damaged as seen in the photos. This rig is all original and Runs great licensed and ready to go!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4250
(02/16/2011) This looks like a nicely original CJ-5 spotted by Steve.
“1956 Willys Jeep 2 owner vehicle. It has the bolt on hard top (I don’t think it’s ever been off) 4cyl, 3spd,transfer case 4 wheel drive. Runs, drives, shifts. It’s got to go, so come and see it, check it out, has lots of new stuff. Was stored for 9 years by second owner and odometer only shows 17k original as it was a farm vehicle. It does have a plow as well but it dosen’t work presently. Good to fix up and drive or restore. Serious inquiries only please and as I said it’s got to go. $4,250.00 or best offer. Need more deatils contact me. Please no scammers, low ballers or tire kickers as I won’t waste your time so please don’t waste mine. It’s complete”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay for $1000.
“This is a 1967 jeep cj5 DUALLY. My understanding is that is was owned by the Texas DOT and was used as an auger. The oil in the engine is black, but there is no apparent water in it. The engine compartment is dusty, but VERY complete. It has an alternator instead of generator. I feel with a little cleaning/tuning the engine would run. ( I have revived engines that looked 10 times worse!) The bad, The tranny cover was left loose and water penetrated it as well as the t-case (the drain plug was missing) so they are seized. The windshield is cracked. Both drive shafts are present, but disconnected due to frozen tranny and t-case. The frame has a 1/2 inch thick plate from the front bumper to the rear bumper following the contours of the frame on the outside of the frame rails. THEY ARE BOLTED TO THE FRAME and appear to be manufactured, not made by some some monkey with a torch. The rear axle is a monster, my understanding is that it is a Dana 70. There is a fuel tank, heavier than normal and with no sending unit hole. There are no seats, and the center most portion of the transmission flloor cover near the shifter is missing. The body is surprisingly lacking in rust. There is a minimal amount in the normal locations, but even the hat channels are in good shape. Please ask any questions before bidding, I am willing to help load the vehicle but the buyer is responsible for transportation. ******I just noticed in a couple of the pictures there are side steps that are NOT on the jeep any longer!*******”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
This is a dually that has a six lug rear. I thought that was odd, but then I checked out a ’69 CJ-5 and it had the same setup.
“1965 Jeep CJ5 4 x 6 dual wheel open body 3 speed. Dana rear end and Chevy 350 motor. 47000 original miles. Originaly sold as a Trencher. Mechanically 100% body excellent.MUST SELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
UPDATE: Still Available
(01/27/2011) This guy is willing to do whatever it takes to sell this rolling chassis. This is located at Hank Graff Chevrolet. I wonder what they wrote off as the trade in value on this rig?
“CHECK THIS OUT…NO MOTOR, NO TRANS…NO TRANSFER CASE NO SEATS… .NOW THE POSITIVE…IT IS REALLY CUTE….WOULD MAKE A TERRIFIC FLOWER PLANTER FOR THE RIGHT FAMILY…. IT IS REALLY CUTE.. REMARKABLY, THE FRAME APPEARS TO BE IN PRETTY GOOD SHAPE….

This runs and has a Warn OD. It needs a bumper at the very least. Some seats might be useful, too.
“Has Buick V-6 engine
3-speed transmission/with warn overdrive
lock out hubs
stainless steel fuel tank
Any additional questions, you may call 618-779-3227 after 4:00pm.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000.
(01/14/2011) This is suppose to have very light rust.
“jeep body is really good for age. the floors are solid and dont have much rust on the body for the age either. the top is still good also. the plow and everything work great. the motor is a 4cyl which runs good but knocks so it will need to be rebuilt. the trans is a manule trans 4×4. tires are good and frame is good as well. i may trade this jeep for something else like a nice truck or something else that might catch my eye. i just dont want anything that i have to work on thats why im selling this. call me at 304=788=6165. just ask if you have a trade or 2000 cash takes this jeep home. these jeeps are getting hard to find in this kind of shape. thanks for looking”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $750
(02/13/2011) Seller will not part out. Looks like a solid project.
“Its time to sell this Willys project that i inherited a while back. I havent touched it in a couple years and I need the space in my garage. It ran before it was pulled apart. F-head 134/T90/D18. The frame is from a ’59 but I also still have the original. It comes with 2 sets of wheels, 15″ and 16″. None of the mounted tires are road worthy. Springs and shocks are new. Not pictured, but hood, fenders, grill, and rad are also included. It comes with a new dual chamber MC, prothane body mount kit, tie rod and drag link upgrade. Buy it to build it up or part it out. I have the title in hand. The purchaser will need a car hauler and cherry picker for the motor. I will not ship or part this out. If you want some of it, you will need to buy all of it. reply to this ad.”
There have been a variety of upgrades. Might not be a bad price.
“This is an original Willy’s Jeep. It is a 1959 CJ5, and with the exception of the original body, Jeep has been modified throughout:
-1970 Buick 350 V8 Motor
-Dana 30 Front End
-Dana 44 Rear End rebuilt within last year
-Dana 20 Transfer Case
-Chevy 4-Speed Transmission with 1st Granny Gear
-Rancho 2.5 inch Suspension lift
-32 inch Tires with 80% tread left
-Brand new Warn locking hubs within last year
-New Radiator and water pump within last year
-New Batter, alternator and starter within last 1.5 years
-New Ignition coil within last 6 months
-Dual fuel tanks
-3 Custom steel storage boxes
Jeep is rough around the edges, but starts and runs great. Idles very smooth, and motor is very responsive. With all of the modifications, this is one of the best running Jeeps you will find. It is a perfect hunting rig or 4-wheeler. Being a 1959, no smog is necessary for registration. Registration is current. 4 seat belts.
Only interested in cash sale. No trades please. Call with questions. Andy – 916-919-4746. ”
