About eWillys
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.
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 .
“1951 Custom Willys Jeepster Woody. Jeepster front body on 1974 CJ5 4×4 with custom woody back. Std. transmission 3 spd., 4.2 6 cyl. engine. 20″ extended frame. Runs good. Needs new tires and windshield wiper motor. Many new parts.”
“I believe this came with my cj2a but it won’t fit with the roll cage I built for the Jeep so I have no use for it. It doesn’t have any nameplates or anything so I don’t know the brand. Glass and everything is intact and I don’t think it has ever been assembled”
(05/18/2020) Coincidently, $2500 ($1500 in cash, key fob, and other stuff and $1000 in tires) is how much it cost us to get out of Spanish Fork when we were there in 2018! This modified CJ-5 is kinda ugly and cool at the same time. Given he top, the winch, and the turbine rims, there just might be some value here. No description provided.
UPDATE: This model of top was also sold under the Sears brand. This 1977 catalog shows the top, but doesn’t indicate it was manufactured by Kelly. I’d assume that the different shaped door in the catalog pic has to do with that vehicle being a CJ-7.

“Koenig Iron Works Hard Top. Originally for a CJ3A, I modified it slightly to fit my CJ3B. It can be reverted back with very little work. I had all new shatter proof auto glass and seals installed several years ago. Rear lift gate opens and latches open perfectly. Doors have roll up/down windows. Driver’s side doesn’t go down the last 2″ or so when the interior door panels are on – the arm catches on something. I never worried about it since the top was only on in the winter time.
The door latches work fine but are not the kind that lock. The inside of the roof has the brackets to put a headliner in there if you want one. Top comes apart (sides, lift gate, doors, roof) for easy, out of the way storage, and bolts back together easily. It’s a solid top, but the paint is starting to chip a little bit. Get this now so you’re warm and dry next winter! It is currently off the Jeep and ready to be picked up. $650 OBO.”
