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 .
UPDATE: Price dropped to $5000.

Looks solid.
“This is my vintage DJ5 mail jeep, I am selling it with a brand new battery, brand new suspension all the way around, new tires and everything on it like headlights wheels with the sweet original chrome hub caps, and unkillable inline 5 it is automatic and mileage is unknown but it starts right up and drives great for its age. It does not have power steering but it’s so small it’s not very hard to turn you just have to get used to being on the right side. This one is in fantastic condition for what it is and it is easy to see project ideas from it or keep it original which is just as nice. All lights work and I bought it from a mailman who bought it from the us mail system.”
Needs a fuel pump at the very least.

Bill is selling his beautiful 1947 CJ-2A. We met with Bill back in 2018 and I saw this jeep in person at that time.

Michael has this DJ-5 for sale. He used it on a USPS route, but no longer needs it anymore.
“Hard to find nowadays a right hand drive Postal Jeep. Running like a top. It has a very nice light bar on the back. I completely redid the brakes, (calipers and lines), new water pump including the housing, new battery, new alternator, and new 3 point seatbelts. I had been using this to deliver mail for over two years and now I don’t need it. Very reliable and collectable. It has an inline 6 cylinder motor with 3 speed automatic transmission. Would make a good farm-buggy, grocery-getter or could still deliver the mail.”
Nate built this custom-purpose CJ-5 from parts.
“This 1966 cj5 came to me in very rough condition. No engine or transmission. The tub was falling off and the windshield glass fell out on the way home because the windshield frame was all rotted out. I pieces it together from parts I could find cheaply and it turned out to be a really tight Jeep now. Still a work in progress with more modifications to come.”
Jim sent me the following pics ….
“I was recently entrusted with a collection of photos that were taken by Chief Photographer’s Mate Paul Madden while onboard the USS Essex during WW2. The pics of Madden are for a little background. The first pic is of him, the second is of him after returning from an air mission where he was wounded (shrapnel in the head)”
“The third pic is what happened to the Jap Zero that wounded him. The fourth is the Purple Heart he got for that wound.”
Jap diving on Essex missed.
“Below are some Jeep photos(attached) on board the Essex, which is the main reason for this post.”
