About eWillys
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.
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 .
What’s interesting about this truck is the top can be removed. In the first pic below you can see some of the brackets that secure the top. I can’t tell if this was done well or not.

Tim Evans shared a few photos of jeeps he saw during a trip through Texas’ Hill Country. One of his stops was to the National Museum of the Pacific War, a place Ann and I visited in 2015. It’s a great place to visit.
He wrote, “Last week we spent a week in Texas and spotted a few jeeps. In Fredericksburg, TX, is the National Museum of the Pacific War. A very well done museum with many detailed exhibits. On display there in the museum was a GPW, and details about the jeep and its production, use and this advertisement. I spotted another GPW that the museum uses in living history demonstrations.”
About this CJ-5 grille, Tim noted, “In New Braunfels TX, I spotted a jeep grill in an antique store for only $199”
This was probably a mid 1960s poster given the Tux Park featured at the top.

“The jeep was purchased from a Willys collector (second owner) in 2012 for $10,000 plus a jeep for which I paid $2,000, with $7,000 added since.
The original owner was in Western Oregon.
I wanted an original, green,Willys, with original paint, but not with the rust like most on the market. More than 50 jeeps in different States were considered before finding this one. The engine, transmission and Warn overdrive had been rebuilt when I purchased it with a roll bar. There are 25,153 miles on the jeep now.
The license plate designates the vehicle as a collectible, so you don’t need to pay for yearly tabs.

Brakes, master cylinder, hoses, and wheel cylinders $1,114
