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 .
It runs and looks pretty stock.
“No rust ever, most all of the original stuff is still intact, stored in a barn for the past 13 years, 25K on the odo, like new mud tires, engine sounds great, new muffler, T90 trans needs rebuild, a very good resto project, bring a trailer…”

I thought the unique paint scheme gave this commando a little different look.
“This 1969 Jeepster Commando is a fun ride. She has brand new tires, paint, seats and seat belts. She runs wonderfully, has a hard top and 2 soft tops. I’ve put a lot into it!! but am asking $5,500…”

“Jeep has original flathead four cylinder, original trans and transfer case as well as axles. It has all matching serial tags, frame, firewall, etc. The body has some rust repair needed but can be fixed by someone with the knowledge and skills. I have a roll bar for this model in mint shape and original seat frames. It has been a family project for a while and we just don’t have the time for it. We are mainly looking to sell but may trade for a quad or motorcycle, maybe something else? I have all DMV forms to register and drive on the road when it is ready. It won’t take much it ran fine about ten years back when it was parked.”
No pics provided.
“I have a very rare 1957 CJ6 Jeep with hard top and overdrive. 49,000 miles.
Has been sitting in a garage for the last 25-30 years.
It is completely stock with one primary exception, it has an early model Chevy V8 in it.
The jeep has some very common rust areas, comes with hardtop, hard doors, 60/40 bench seat, 3 speed tranny, 2 speed T-case with overdrive, stock axles, stock wheels with hub caps, clear title.
You will not find another person with a jeep like this.
It is not pretty, it needs a full restoration, but it’s pretty much all there.
I also have an orginal and complete F134 four cylinder engine I will throw in for an additional $400.
Serious buyers only, no lookiloos and no low ball hagglers. No tire kickers allowed.
Photos available shortly by email.”

(12/08/2012) There are some good detail shots of the rebuild.
“For sale is my 1954 Jeep Willys CJ3B. This Jeep was bought about 3 years ago and was used as a restoration project ( as you can see from the pictures ). Engine runs excellent. 4×4 was rebuilt, including the transmission and transfer case. The engine has a new starter, coil, spark plugs, rotor and cap, wires, and a rebuilt carburator. A new custom exhaust was installed by a local professional. The Jeep has brand new shocks, brakes, brake master cylinder, wheel bearings, new steering shock and also it was recently fully aligned. The Jeep starts perfectly, and drives like all other jeeps. It was fully restored, including the break down of all body panels, fully sandblasted, rust prevention spray, 3 coats of primer, and then the final original paint color. All dash gauges and lights work, and the dash includes the original Jeep Willys 4×4 instruction plate. It has a Ramsey Winch on the front, which is controlled by a remote from inside and outside of the Jeep. As you can see in the pictures, there is an electric hookup for towing the jeep that allows the jeep’s lights to be used in towing. Since restoration, my CJ3B has been garage kept and only driven for enjoyment on the streets. This Jeep is perfect for anyone who is looking for a exceptionally unique Willys which is in perfect mechanical and physical shape, that can add upgrades to increase their enjoyment.”
