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 $2200.
No mention of ice cream equipment, so this may just be a DJ-5 painted with a Seahawks theme.
“Seahawks style Ice cream truck. Classic Jeep. Rides great. Just needs new battery. Great time to get a ice cream truck so you will be ready for the season”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2200.
Markusz is selling this DJ-5. Looks in good shape.
“1982 AM General DJ5 United States Postal Service Jeep. Right hand drive automatic jeep. Pretty decent gray paint job with Army Vinyl theme. Runs, drives and stops. Lights, horn and locks work. Custom rear bumper. All glass and glass seals in good shape. Does not overheat, 4 cylinder engine runs smooth and transmission shifts as it should. Newer carpet inside. Decent shape tires. Good emissions and clean title, notarized ready to transfer. $2200 obo. Could be a cool little offroad toy or rat rod project.”
Gayland shared these pics from an auction he won. They demonstrate that AM General targeted the Navy for DJ-5s, too.

Gayland won these images at an auction. Like yesterday’s brochure, these show what at least some of the Army’s DJ-5s looked like. He’s got some naval photo images he plans to share later.

It’s supposed to run and drive.
