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 .

(03/05/2013) This seller is buying this along with another car and doesn’t need it. This includes a rear PTO, Drum, and Saw.
“This is a nice car, it looks great!!
The car has had a lot of work done, and it runs well. It was owned by a mechanic who was able to give it TLC. The tires are new. This is not a rust bucket. I took some a pictures up close of a surface rusted area which is minor on RH side.
The car is with a Cadillac and I have to buy the pair, I am a Caddy guy and want to move this one.

Lots of diamond plate on this body. The windshield was conversion is unusual.

This jeep has a CJ-5 grafted onto CJ-3B cowl. So, it isn’t mostly stock.
“I have a 53 cj3b for sale. It does run, but needs a tune-up. Original motor, jeep is mostly stock. This is a project jeep, it has some rust and dings”
“An extremely rare WWII US Navy trailer from San Diego with a clear California title and an early black California license plate. The original ID tag is still affixed to the trailer. The body is very straight with some some spots of rust visible in the pictures, overall I would say this is a very good trailer. These are so rare that you might not have the opportunity to ever get one again and my reserve is very reasonable. Payment expected within three business days after auction ends. Cash in person, cashiers check or wire transfer. Available for inspection with an appointment before the auction ends.”
(01/12/0213) Lots of parts, but definitely a project.

On Wednesday March 27th we spent the day exploring eastern New Mexico.
We began the morning with a beautiful drive east up to Cloudcroft, a town that sits at 9000 ft, making it popular destination for folks looking to escape the heat of the Alamogordo valley. It was early, so not much was open. We continued until we reached the dusty town of Artesia, NM. My oldest son Karson had been ‘stationed’ in Artesia to get his final training for Fema Corps, but left Sunday (only 3 days earlier) for Brooklyn, where he will spend two months helping the Hurricane Sandy clean up process. So, we just missed him!
From Artesia, we went south on Highway 285 until we reached Carlsbad Caverns National Park.
After entering the Carlsdbad’s visitor center, we had a choice. We could either take an elevator down or walk down to the caverns themselves. Ann thought it best to take the elevator, but was perfectly happy to let me walk down the winding pathway through a massive cave entrance, which leads to the caverns.
So, I started towards the entrance. At first the switchbacks were relative gentle…
But soon they got steeper. As the path led into the cave opening, moisture from the walls and ceiling bled onto the path, making it slippery in spots due to the angle of descent.
Eventually, I reached an intersection. I was uncertain which way to go until I spotted a sign I thought would get me to the elevators. So, I turned right, unaware that I was actually heading into the cavern system itself. Once I realized my mistake, I then had to figure out whether it was quicker to head back the way I had come or venture forward until I returned back the the intersection starting point. Poor Ann was left waiting for me. I think it took me about 15 minutes to complete the entire circuit through the caverns at a slight job.
One I found Ann again, we I took my second stroll around the caverns, this time at a much slower pace. My photos of the cavern were mostly blurry, but this was turned out reasonably well.
