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 .
Eric postedthis cool little jeep to the Willys CJ-2A Facebook page. His grandfather did the original work. The redesigned jeep had fallen into disrepair before Eric began the work necessary to resurrect it back to how his grandfather’s build.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $600.
The price seems good on this parts jeep whose body is plenty rusted. The hardtop has be confused. I think it may be a Koenig hardtop with customized “suicide” doors, but the windshield isn’t something I recognize. It may be this windshield allowed the use of a CJ-5 style hardtop.
The windshield doesn’t look like the DJ-3A windshield (shown here) nor does it look like the early Worman windshield (shown here). Anyone recognize it? It certainly looks production quality. I might have seen something similar on a jeep on Facebook, but I can no longer find that post.
This has been listed a while; it’s unclear if this was ever auctioned or not. This has a Koenig model 535 half-top.

“LAST CHANCE BEFORE AUCTION! cool jeep with a Koenig iron works manufactured hard top/ half cab . Has new carb and new mechanical fuel pump ready to be installed. Spins over freely. Frame looks solid. Windshield needs replaced. But should be an easy project for someone to work on and enjoy. has a title!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7000.
This has a few extras, including a Meyer hardtop, a Warn(?) OD, and a custom(?) bed extension. The video below must be from the previous owner.
“1960 Jeep Cj5 225 dauntless V6 3 speed with gear vendor overdrive Twin stick Dana 20 transfer case Runs and drives great, breaks work plenty. Rides great at 45-50mph Do not ask if it’s still available.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $6500.
(02/11/2022) The half-top looks refurbed/customized and the roof of this half-cab extends a little too far over the front. It seems that would be a big wind catcher at any decent rate of speed.

“THIS IS 1948 WILLYS CJ2A ORIGINAL MOTOR REBUILT BY PROFESSIONAL SHOP EVRYTHING DONE TO ORIGINAL SPECS THE JEEP HAS ROUGHLY 500 TO 1000 MILES ON THE MOTOR SEE VIDEO IT IDLES QUIET RUNS PERFECT I HAVE A NEW GAS TANK AND GAUGE SENDING UNIT THAT COMES WITH THE JEEP THE ONE IN IT IS FINE GAS GAUGE WORKS JUST EXTRA STUFF THAT GOES WITH THE JEEP THE TOP AND BACK COVER WILL COME OFF IF YOU LIKE

This rear-wheel-drive build is interesting. It’s listed as a 1960 DJ-5 but those weren’t built until 1966 (it also lacks the faux battery box lid of a 1960 body). The fenders are later than 1960, too. The half top is one of the nicer ones I’ve seen, but I don’t recognize the model. The engine sounds like it would work well. The work n the jeep looks well done.

“Jeep Willys DJ5 with RWD, new less then 200 miles, built with the best of everything. It has a 2.0L Ford TIVCT crate engine, 3.91 Ford 9″ rear with track lock, 2″ front axle with GM metric bakes front/rear, 5 speed manual and lots of other parts too numerous to list here. NO TEXT MESSAGES I WILL NOT ANSWER. Licensed as an antique vehicle. Will consider trades for another vehicle that fits my lifestyle.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(02/20/2022) The body looks in great shape. The custom console under the dash seems a nice fit (though probably not easy to get to given it is behind the shifters).

“Very nice finished Willys with newer Buick overdrive V-6 Detroit locker rear end with floater kit, 11 inch brakes. 4×4 lifted with tight suspension. Tow bar connector under front bumper. Solid straight body and undercarrige. Newer seat also has good floors and tub. This rig really likes to go fishing. Clean title $12,000 Plains Mt.”
It’s not currently road worthy, but it does have some interesting mods. The mod at the very rear appears to be a gas tank. I suspect the cargo area may be an animal cage of some type.

“Early model half cab Jeep (milage & yr unknown) 4×4 lock in/ lock out hubs, 4 cyl engine, runs good, new fuse box, fuses. Ignition switch.

Nice deer camp or farm Jeep. Wouldn’t take much to make it road ready. Bill of Sale. $4650.00”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $5000.
I post this because it wins the award for the most creative use of a Uhaul item (as a seat cover), along with the unusual rear cargo mod.
