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 .
Unclear what the rust situation is.

Vehicle Information
UPDATE: Definitely a scam. This jeep ad has been spotted in several locations now. A reader named Sam took the plunge and emailed the seller. After several rounds of emails, Sam concluded there was no jeep.
Possible scam as the price seems too good. Seller mentions nothing about the jeep.

Anyone in the Seattle area have a Stratton Hydraulic Lift? A man named Ernie lives in the Seattle area (don’t know where just yet) and it was his family’s Cleveland, Ohio, machine shop that built the Stratton Lifts. We are hoping that if he sees one in person that it will jog his memory for some stories about them.
Email Barry Thomas at barry@farmjeep.com or me at d@deilers.com if you know of anyone.
You can read more about Ernie and his Machine shop here: https://www.farmjeep.com/2020/11/08/stratton-lift-builder-found-us/
The machine shop is still in business and, if there is enough interest, they may even be willing to manufacture some parts.

“Mechanically correct 3 owner CJ5 , F-134 engine runs well and the transmission shifts smoothly and the transfer-case shifts in and out of four wheel drive with ease . Dana 44 rear with factory Power-lok rear end with 5:38 gears in front and rear differentials. Front differential has smooth working Warn locking hubs and has new inner and outer seals including knuckle seals the king pin bearings have been replaced in the front differential as well . The body has never been repainted since new and is extremely clean for a 54 year old Cj5. The brakes are new as are the KYB gas shocks at all 4 corners .
I have replaced the Fuel pump with the correct Dual Action fuel pump along with a new steel tank and lines as well as rebuilt the Carburetor. The starter has been rebuilt recently and it has a new battery and ignition switch as well. The Radiator has been re-cored and it has a new water pump and Thermostat as well. The Heater Core was replaced and the heater works as it should . I replaced all of the worn out factory insulating pads between the body and frame with ½ inch conveyor belting and all new correct ⅜ 24 bolts washers lock washers and nuts . I replaced the speedometer assembly and speedometer cable because they were no longer working but the originals will be provided with the Jeep. The Jeep comes with 5 BFG All Terrain tires with good tread”
