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 .

“1979 jeep DJ5G postal jeep.
Runs good, new factory rebuilt carburetor, rebuilt tranny, newer heavy duty battery.
$45. Service manual included.
This would be a great project for someone who likes to rebuild old vehicles. It runs now, just renew a few accessories and you have a great unusual vehicle!
Some minor rust on body.
This is 37 years old. It was built to drive city streets delivering mail, so top speed is about 45-50.
It drives great on flat; hills, not so much. It can do them, but very slowly, and it doesn’t like them! It has some play in the steering wheel, and due to sitting, the brakes aren’t up to par, but my mechanic says that is normal for sitting so long without being driven, and they should do fine after driving a bit.
Odometer and speedometer don’t work: it’s a cable issue.
Estimate @ 34K.
Has the tray installed right now. I could remove if you prefer.
One seat, not original (much more comfy!)I found the original passenger seat, included
New radio/CD player
These photos are a bit old, but vehicle looks the same, a bit of fading on paint, but otherwise, it is EXACTLY as represented and written description.
Terms are cash only. No Shipping, you must pick it up.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
Dan forwarded this FC on eBay.
“Here is a one of a kind ’59 FC170. First of all, I do sell some vehicles on Ebay, almost always old farm trucks, as I live here in the middle of Kansas. I enjoy dealing with the farmers I buy them from, love getting them running again, and also enjoy meeting the people who buy them and seeing where they go. I’ve rescued a lot of old farm trucks. But this one is definitely different. First of all, I’m a little bit of a jeep nut. I have 2 49 jeeps, a 76 Cj7, and numerous AMC vehicles as well. I have never, however, owed a forward control jeep. I was offered the chance to purchase this one, and immediately snapped it up.
The only reason I am offering this for sale, is that I’m more of an original vehicle type of guy, and although this truck has had a ton of money spent on the be and winch, I would prefer one with the original bed. Without exception, until now, I always list my vehicles with a starting price of $10.00 and no reserve. I’ve noticed that there is an ebay law of averages. Sometimes they sell a little high, or a little low, but usually sell for about market valve. This one is a little different, as it’s pretty hard to value, so, I decided if it sells for $4500, o.k. if not, o.k. I’ll put it in my collection.
