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 .
Bill spotted this Land Rover with some Hollywood history. It lacks a title. The current bid is $500.

“1953 Blue CJ3B currently has sbc under the hood. I believe it to a 327. I can’t confirm that because I’ve never run the numbers. I drove the cj onto my trailer when I originally bought it. I have a complete Hurricane ? for it. As you can see it is pretty much complete. I have clear Washington title in my name. In addition I have another nearly complete White Cj3b. It is what you see from the pictures. It comes with Bill of Sale only. I am willing to consider part or possibly straight across trade for Air-cooled VW Bug,Bus, Ghia project or parts. I am now willing to separate. I’m not willing to sell any parts. $8,500 for both or?”
This appears to have a replacement body, so it isn’t all original.

15×8”, 5 on 5.5” bolt pattern with 3.75” backspacing. Very good condition, rare factory wheels for 1970 CJ-5 Renegade 1. Have all markings and original part number label visible on one wheel. Part number KH 79005.One wheel has been completely sandblasted the other has been partially blasted (not completed inside the wheel. Both have been primed on wheel face- bare metal elsewhere. Have had these in dry storage many years.
To purchase both wheels, you will need to complete 2 orders. This is the only way I could figure out shipping two separate boxes. Boxes are 21x21x11 and each weighs 34 lbs.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $14,000.
This is a project that includes a second slat grille frame and what the seller believes to be is a correct slat-grille engine.
“41 Slat grill MB project. This is currently a running, driving jeep, however, I am keeping the M38 motor that is in it. The T86 trans has the passenger side fill hole (correct for slat). The current frame is kinda cobbled up, a 2nd slat grill frame with axles & original slat grill is included. Seats are repros with Beechwood Canvas covers, a set of original split-back seats are included. Four 4 1/2″ 90/90 solid wheels and one 4″ 90/90 solid wheel go with. Also included is a chain drive 638632 block that i believe to be an actual slat grill motor (turns free) and 639660c cylinder head. The registration number on the hood is not original, dod tag and frame tag are missing, but the ser# on the title matches the features present on this jeep, I believe it to be the correct ser#. I have estimated the dod to be Dec 19. Clean title in my name. Serious inquiries only please. Located in SW Indiana, delivery available for a fee.”
This is listed as a project.

(11/09/2023) This poor jeep … Unmolested? Seems a pretty big dent in back.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/311108481741402
“This is an unmolested 1944 Willys mb. All original ww2. Can be restored to original or hot rodded. Great project and easy to work on. It comes with an extra rebuilt engine and front spare axle. After doing research on this vehicle you could see it was a navy base jeep due to its original grey paint used on those models during that era. Priced to move, as you can see I have too many projects and not enough time”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $500.

This issue may cover from the Fall of 1975 through January 1976 (the next issue is Feb/March 1976). It is one of the largest at 18 pages plus a one page advertising insert.
The flyer:
The weather has warmed up some, which made working outside much more pleasant! Since the last set of pics, I made some corner brackets and added them to the cage. I’ve also added a cross bar that will be the base for the sets and some curved support bars on eat side of the front loop.
I’ll post some pics of the cage below, then add some pics of how I made the brackets (in case that’s of interest to anyone.
Below I show how I made the corner pieces.
This first pic shows 5 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ 16 gauge steel squares. The paper above it shows my attempts to figured out the rough size I wanted:
I found this photo on eBay. It shows a VEC CJ-2A with a wood-based hardtop. The back of the photograph suggests that the builder of the hardtop may have been manufacturing these for sale for $265. The seller of these called them Jeep Station Wagon Bodies and built at least one of them (as shown in the picture). It appears these were built in or near San Francisco. There was another manufacturer who built similar tops out of Cleveland, Ohio, and advertised them as Station Wagon Bodies.
