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 .
Looks like a solid early CJ-5 with the first gen KW 0-10 speedometer.

“1957 CJ5. Total restoration just finished after 5 years. Engine professionally rebuilt with a 30 overbore. Pretty much stock. We put in a modern 12v alternator and starter…Jeep was originally 12v. Seats are original (I reupholstered them). Everything works and it drives as it should. Not a museum quality restoration but pretty darn good. I have a clean title. 100 miles +- on the restoration.”
Dennis is selling this very stock Tux Park equipped CJ-5. It has a Meyers branded hardtop and an overdrive.

“I’m closing out my car collection and offering this ’63 Willys Jeep Tuxedo Park. It runs great and drives well (for an old Jeep). It is equipped with a Warn overdrive. I had a lot of upgrades done to this vehicle in the past two years. Some of the more important ones:
Completely new brake system, upgraded to 11 inch drums which greatly improve braking
New wiper motor
Some steering components replaced as needed
New tires (still look new)
New exhaust system
Seats reupholstered
Parking brake shoes on driveshaft relined
New pinion and axle seals
Wheels powder coated. They are the correct 16 inch size
Front floor pans replaced and coated with Rhino Liner
Hard top appears to be factory or dealer installed. Roll bar added
Odometer mileage shows 56,607 as of this date. Speedo/odometer works but I don’t know if this is the actual mileage or not.
This is a Tuxedo Park model. There were few produced and not many left that haven’t been repainted or modified. The T.P. was a trim option which included special body color (Indian Ceramic), chrome bumpers and hood hinges, special tail lamps, color-keyed steering wheel and a few other items. If you want more info on the Tuxedo Park consult the Kaiser Willys website, kaiserwillys.com
Price is $10K FIRM. Please do not call if you are not prepared to pay this price for a unique Jeep.
This might be a solid V-6 CJ-5.

Mike shared this mostly stock CJ-3B. It looks like this has a swing-type tire carrier on the back (explains the odd colored swatches on either rear side of the body.

“Just resorted, it was purchased in California and I put many hours and money restoring it.
As you can see from the photos it is in excellent condition. Runs great and the decals can be removed.”
Glenn spotted this rare and restored Mahl Loader and CJ-2A. There are a ton of detail photos at BaT’s auction page. Note that the serial number used for the title is an engine number and not the original serial number. So, a buyer might want to consider that it your state is extra picky.
https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1948-willys-cj-2a-18/
“This 1948 Willys CJ-2A is powered by a 134ci Go-Devil inline-four paired with a three-speed manual transmission and is fitted with a MAHL Jeep Loader attachment produced by Standard Iron & Wire Works Inc. of Minneapolis, Minnesota. The pair was acquired by the seller around 2010 and subsequently refurbished before installation of the loader in 2016. The truck is finished in black over green vinyl and features white-painted 16″ steel wheels, a fold-flat windshield, a dual-range transfer case, a power take-off unit, a Gre-Sen hydraulic pump, and cab-mounted hydraulic controls. This CJ-2A and Jeep Loader are now offered with an award, articles about the project, and a clean Minnesota title in the name of the seller’s company…..
The factory chassis tag has been replaced with a reproduction unit that shows a blank serial number, and the seller is unable to locate the chassis number on the vehicle itself. The last six digits of the VIN on the title—J172095—are consistent with that of a 1948 Willys CJ-2A.”
