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 .
Given this CJ-5 has an overdrive and the jeep has a new top, I think this is a pretty good price.
“1967 CJ5 with 225 Buick V6, 3 speed tranny, warn overdrive, danna 44 rear end, 27 front end, new best top with half doors, 2.5″ Rancho lift, 32″ wild country tires on 15×10 white spoke wheels. $2000.00 Call Josh (360) 528-1211”
I included this CJ-5 because the seller has done something interesting to the front grille. I haven’t decided whether I’m a fan of it or not, but it’s an interesting idea. The jeep itself looks great.
“1960 Willys Jeep CJ5 – 289 V8 3spd with warn overdrive. twin stick. New 4″ Rancho Lift, 2″ shackle lift, New 33″ mud tires on new chrome wheels from Les Schwab, New Brake Master Cylinder, New Clutch Slave Cylinder, New Rancho Dual Shocks and Steering Stablizer, AM/FM CD and CB, New Bestop and Bikini Top, Race Seats with Harness Belts, New Motor Mount Kit installed, New U Joints…”
UPDATE: Was priced at $1000
And one more great find from Brian. This is a brand new, never mounted CJ-5 fiberglass body along with enough parts to get a project started. Of course, new, the body and front clip would cost a lot more, approx $3600 from one source before taxes and shipping.
“Cj5 fiberglass tub, cj5 fiberglass front end, 2 new black front seats, black rear seat it great condition, amc 304 engine hasn’t ran in a couple years, amc 20 and amc 30 axels, cj5 frame, window frame with new glass, 2 gas tanks, front and rear drive shafts, brake pedal, gas pedal, emergency brake, steering wheel and steering box, steering shaft for axel, dash with wiring needs new gauges and a couple other small odd parts. alb1185@yahoo.com. Take it all for $1000 obo, will trade.
This looks like a good price on a nice, upgraded CJ-5.

This is a 1960 CJ-5 that got a new lease on life thanks to efforts by Jim.

A reader asked me to look at a CJ-5 he was interested in purchasing. So, I spent a little time reviewing the sale of CJ-5s and was surprised to see how many are for sale and how many great deals are out there. At the beginning of 2007 I spent January and February looking for good prices on CJ-5s, so I got a pretty good idea of the market then; It’s just amazing the change 2 years later. Here’s a good example.
“Red CJ5 4X4 Jeep. Good condition. Full roll cage. Tilt steering wheel. Chevy sm. block. 4-sp. stick. 2″ lift with 31″ tires. After market wheels. Body is in Great shape. Call for more info. Possible trade for ??? but NO FORDS. I’m a chevy guy. OR Toyota 4 runner. Call Todd at 503-740-7396 or 360-835-5467”
The CJ-5 comes with a warn overdrive, a ford-top loader, a ford 289, a full cage and a set of hurricane aluminum 10″ rims. $1500 isn’t a bad price for that combo + the rest of the parts.
The FC-150 looks pretty good as well for $1500, if it comes with some of the missing parts.
“One 1959 Willys CJ5 with Ford 289 and Ford top loader four speed, Warn overdrive, starts and runs good, original 5:38 gears and nine inch brakes, 
will include parts for changing to 11 inch brakes. $1500.00 cash O.B.O. One 1959 Willys FC 150 Forward Control with Ford 289, Jeep transmission and transfer case, original 5:38 gears and 11 inch brakes. was never finished. Will come with extra FC 150 parts. $1500.00 cash O.B.O.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500
This seems a great price for a good looking CJ-5.

While looking up transmissions for the T-98 post, I came across a website that has CJ-5 decals you can purchase. The website offers VIN Stickers, Data plate decals, Tailgate decals, and more. The website carries a wide variety of data stickers. Check it out.
If I wanted to use a sticker, the one to the right would work perfectly, even though it’s designed for a “3 speed Auto D300 Twin”.
