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 .
The hardtop on this early CJ-5 was interesting, particularly the doors. I’m sure it’s a 1970s or later top.

“‘55 CJ5 with original motor, 3 speed, near new tires and shocks. Top and doors come off. Currently not running and needs a new battery, which I’m taking care of. Comes with original metal gear directions. Perfect for someone with the time to tinker. Odometer doesn’t work and didn’t when I bought it a few years ago.”
Steve shared this Meyer branded hardtop. It may be an ex-forest service hardtop.

“Meyers metal hardtop for CJ jeeps. Includes doors and hardware. ( Mounting hinges and door handles. Very good shape.”

Originally published March 26, 2018: This is the only information I could find on this rare hardtop.
This early CJ-5 includes a plow. It may be worth a look.

David shared this ad. It looks to be some of the parts for a CJ-5 Kelly hardtop. However, I do not see pics of the rear door or the top portion of the top.

“These fit a 60s to 70s jeep m38 or cj5 these may be the only metal doors like these in the entire state of California, they both need door handles and the window mechanism works just fine and the window glass is in perfect condition also they do make after market doors handles for these doors.”

“1949 jeep willys project motor was supposed to have been rebuilt previous owner No title but the brass tags are there located in liberty, ny”
Has an updated engine.

“1948 jeep willys runs but still needs work has new carb, fuel pump, water pump, break master cylinder. Has 200ci ford 6cly title from a 44 willys”
Nice wheels/tires. I’m pretty sure the faux battery box lid was phased out after the 1963 year, which suggest this might be a 1962 or earlier. Has a Meyer hardtop, with a handy-looking luggage rack, and a Ramsey PTO winch.

“Hard top cj5 willies with doors Ramsey winch pto option starts and drives with new tires and spare cool all original minus seats cold take less if u have a diff set of wheels”
