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: **SOLD** Was $5500.

“1948 to 1950 garage kept last 40 years. No rust.”
Seems a reasonable jeep at a reasonable price.

“Nice stock willys. Carb was rebuilt, new seat upholstery, steering wheel. Runs great, stops good, comes with some extra parts, spare tire and holder.”
Next Updates will be Sunday morning.
There’s not specific year printed on this CJ-5 brochure out of Switzerland. I’m guessing circa 1958 given the blue jeep logo.
Photo #6 from the July 1945 Willys-Overland press kit is this iconic photo of a CJ-2 pulling a trailer full of hay.
There are three different auctions for FC-170-related PTO mechanical drawings.
An August 23, 1948, article in the Tampa Times shared the news of an American and Soviet jeep standoff in Potsdamer Platz as tensions ran high between the East and West. I’d say tensions were high!
The above photo was part of this larger story:
UPDATE: Still Available.

(03/23/2018) “Original 1955 Willys CJ-5 in great condition. This Jeep runs like a dream! Brand new T-90 transmission was installed less than two months ago, and the Jeep shifts beautifully. Original speedometer/odometer still works and is a very rare piece. Brand new Smittybilt seats and a brand new exhaust system installed less than two months ago.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(08/01/2020) Looks like a good price for a Fresno-modified CJ-5 with a Muller top.
