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 looks like there is $450 worth of parts on this jeep. It even runs!
“1955 Willys Jeep project or for parts – it has a sears roebuck upper body, 4 cylinder standard, does run but needs work. $450 or close offer, must be sold by Sunday 4/11. It’s not nice but it’s 55 years old and parts are getting harder to find. I hate to cut it up for scrap metal but I need it gone. Comes with bill of sale only.”

“I am selling this very rare 1967 jeep cj5A tuxedo park Mark IV project. Just rebuilt original Buick 225 Dauntless v6 engine, t86 trans and Dana 18 transfercase with FACTORY warn Overdrive. Worth more than this is parts, but this is ONE OF 89 built in 1967. More rare than shelby gt500, GT 350, and 1967 Z28….:) Anyhow, think the throwout bearing was installed wrong, and so it grinds when push in the clutch, I put it on stands and pushed through gears…does fine, so will need to pull clutch and put back together. Runs good though….BUT needs a full restoration.Not even 10 miles on engine rebuild. Not much rust, but welded on bumpers, and at some point the windshield frame was replaced with good glass from another jeep. I have no idea what year or modelof winshield frame. Brakes need replacing, in place but need rebuilt. I put coat of flat green on to get by till someone restores it. New plugs and dist cap as well. Have clear title in hand. Will need trailer. Call or email with questions.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
Here’s a sharp looking CJ-5.
“1966 Jeep Willys CJ5 Totally Restored, Hard to find in this condition. Must Have!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3750.
(12/03/09) It’s a bit beat up, but it’s got indents. It doesn’t have a column shift. It includes a trailer not shown.

Good News! I found myself a set of professionally rebuilt heads for a great price (thanks Greg!). Greg Berheim dropped me a line after I posted my craigslist Ad (wanted: engine heads). He wrote that he had acquired a set of heads as part of an engine/parts buyout and didn’t have any use for them.
So, I drove over and met with Greg. It turns out, Greg operates the Berheim Engine Machine Shop, a local engine shop in Meridian (208-870-1464), Idaho. This information was especially interesting to me as Bob’s Mechanical had been bought out and most of the services moved about an hour away from me.
So, after spending time with Greg and him generously providing some advice and thoughts on my engine issues, I now know who to turn to if I need any additional work done (which I really hope I don’t need soon!!). So, if you are in the Boise area and need some engine work done, check out Greg.
Tonight, I pulled the passenger-side head and will get the covers and intake cleaned up tomorrow. I also carefully cleaned the surface of the heads, as the block facing surfaces had some light surface residue that needed to be removed. Saturday, I’ll put everything together and see if everything works!
Roberto has created a new jeep t-shirt for Panzernet.com. You can view it below or see it at the panzernet website. Thanks for sharing Roberto!
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000
No year mentioned, but this is definitely a DJ-3A based on the speedometer. However it has been modified into a 4×4. It looks like a good price.
“Fun for hunting off roading or every day use…Willys Jeep Dispatcher Flat Fender 4×4 , four speed, four barrel V-6 , Headers ,Great tires runs good even has leather electric seats.”
