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 .
This seems worth a look.Includes a Kelly Bonanza Top, a plow, new tires, and other parts.

“No title, can provide bill of sale. Antique compact jeep with working snow plow. My dad had it running but it needs some work, there is either a timing or distributor issue. Has a brand new carburetor, new tires, and new battery. No key ”
UPDATE: Andy pointed out an unusual Ramsey data plate on this rig. Anyone seen another one like it?
Steve shared this running CJ-5 with a dual PTO and plow.

“1963 Jeep CJ5 old plow jeep. Runs and drives but has zero brakes. PA paperwork in hand. Rare Ramsey dual Outlet PTO for front and rear winches or Farm implements. Power take off does work. Jeep gas tank rotted out a few years ago. Is running off of a small tractor gas tank under the hood. Does need lots of metal work as there’s not much floor left. Frame seems solid. Plow works good.”
This appears to include a Warn OD.

“1957 Jeep Willy’s needs to be finished, it has a Buick V-6 mated to an automatic transmission, I bought this project to get running but decided to pass it on to the next owner. Currently on Non-opp and I have the clean CA. Title in hand. Asking $2,000. I will consider trade and possibly add some cash if you have a pre smog running short bed Chevy or GMC truck. If add is up, it’s available so please don’t ask”
Blaine shared this CJ-5, noting the hardtop looked unusual, which the rear of it does. After some research, I felt it is a Koenig Jiffy Cab 520 for the CJ-5 (see an Aug 1957 brochure here). This is the first time I’d noticed that the Jiffy Cab 520 had an unusually wide rear door with slim sides (not room for side windows in the back).

“The jeep is pretty-much untouched and original (except for the paint). Last year before AMC bought Jeep. It has the factory 3.7l Dauntless V6 motor, three-speed transmission and factory PTO winch. Split bench seat.
The motor is strong with as-new oil pressure. A prior owner put a 3.8l intake on it so it can use the Delco electronic ignition. Dual exhaust, as new. Transmission good as are the brakes. I hate antique cooling systems, so a new radiator and heater core. Headlight replacements should be in today (3rd), LEDs with glass faces.
The paint job was for protection since it came to the coast, mediocre base coat, clear coat. The hard top was bought when the Jeep was new. Neither roof or the body show rust, it came from Talent, very dry country. It has a mis-matched tire, and needs little jobs for it to be the daily driver.
This is an old Jeep, old school. No power steering, just a big steering wheel. No power brakes or cruise control. Early Jeeps are strong and reliable, but have little in common with modern Jeeps.
I am willing to consider trades, even non-vehicle, if the trade seems right, or $6k. I have varied interests.”
John shared this militarized CJ-5. Though not restored to original, it looks like this was a nut and bolt rebuild at some point. It seems worth a look given the price.

“Fully rebuilt motor and transmission new tires brakes canvas top and seats. Has been sandblasted and painted about 10 yrs ago.”
UPDATE: This one is still available.
(09/30/2023) This may be worth a look. The Koenig half cab looks in good shape.

“A 1955 Willys Jeep Coupe hardtop 4×4 4-speed 4 cylinder new carb runs with snow plow and hydraulic lift works”
UPDATE :**SOLD** Was $4000.
It doesn’t run at the moment, but is supposed to have a solid body.
“Universal CJ5 Open Body is in good condition – no known rust. PTO winch and built-in tow bar on front bumper. Been stored under cover during present owner +/- 10 years. Comes with new Solex carburetor purchased through Jeepsterman recently. New 6 volt battery. Odds are good that it will run when replaced. Ran previously. Back bench seat included.”
This appears worth a look.

Here’s an odd one.

“So, this has been in my family for quite a while. Believe my great grandpa ‘created’ this back in the 80’s and would mainly use it as a hunting vehicle. To my understanding mostly all the exterior is fiberglass, cab space is mainly sheet metal, engine and chassis are from an old jeep (willys jeep or jeep CJ) sometime in the 1940’s-60’s. Price is OBO, if you think you have any info on the chassis and engine based on the pictures let me know, I would like to learn more about it myself. Have the cylinder head and other parts but are in kind of rough shape as you could assume”
Update: As John points out, the body, chassis and fenders aren’t from ‘55.
The Meyer half cab might be in good shape. Hard to tell what shape the body is in.
