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 $500.
“Stock 1967 CJ-6, stock 134 motor and driveline. Ran when I parked it (5 yrs ago) but now has no compression in 2 cyl…maybe valves hung up? Didn’t try much to start it yet? Body is heavily rusted…hood, windshield good. ”
You can probably get this for less. It appears very stock.
“Resto project with oem flathead. Steve 209 892-8696”

This doesn’t look all that rough, though the tranny and tc are out.
“All original, rough condition. Motor turns over but doesn’t start. Transmission pulled. Dad drove and parked in barn 15 years ago. Have title but hasn’t been registered since then. Please call 563-213-0059.”

This might make a good restoration project if the seller’s description is accurate.
“Need something to keep you busy this winter? This vehicle needs to be restored. I purchased it completely apart and have no time for the restoration process. The body tub is in excellent shape, frame is perfect, and all parts are with it. All data plates are origanal and still on mounting plate. It is a great project for anyone with restoration experience, and time for the project.”

(05/08/2010) “This Jeep went through a total body-off, fully documented professional restoration in Pennsylvania 3-years ago at a cost of over $50,000. Painted in the rare factory correct Normandy Blue makes this CJ stand out. It has been driven only 300 miles since restoration in parades and shows. An ideal addition to any collection or ready for regular use. Everything works as new. Call for more details and photos”
UPDATE: Was $11,500. **SOLD**
Bill pointed out that this is actually a M-151A2 Encore. These were built using the M-151A2 running gear for a couple years in the late 90s. You can read more about them at the G503.com site. Here are good pics of another Encore. Here’s the discussion of the body at the G838.org site. I tried to find more info on the history of Encore, but didn’t have success, though it went out of business around 1999.
Greg pointed out this unusual M-151. It’s not clear to me if this was built from scratch or rebuilt, but it sure looks like a pretty new vehicle. In that sense, it’s a rather rare vehicle. If this WAS built from new parts, then $25,000 isn’t all that high of price to have someone built a vehicle from scratch. Including the cost of labor, building a jeep from scratch with new parts would likely land in the $25000 realm. The ad includes lots of pics.
“You are looking at a titled re-creation of a MUTT M151/ army jeep. In 1999 this Jeep was built in Clearwater, Florida for a jeep enthusiast that had a home in Utah as well. It was shipped to Utah in 2002 and used for local driving and recreational use. This vehicle has also won a few trophies in local car shows. In 2009 the Jeep was shipped back to his home in Palm Beach, Florida where it sat in storage. This vehicle is like new with only 400 actual miles. Everything is in working order and it runs like a 400 mile Jeep should. This vehicle cost over $25,000.00 to have built. There loss is your gain. I am only asking $11,900.00. I am open to all reasonable offers.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1600.
“This is a DJ3A jeep that’s had the CJ2A 4X4 Drive train installed. Original 4-134 flathead runs great, T90 3 spd trans and D18 2 spd transfer appear to be good. I drained and replaced the oil and it was Not milky (no water). I took the original (rare) DJ hard top off to use it for hunting, I still have it and it goes with the Jeep. Replaced the rubber brake lines and flush the brake system so it has brakes again. Original 16″ wheels with the spare. It is currently licenced but need the taillights fixed (wires) to be street legal. It’s a cool Jeep, just don’t have the time or money to do it justice (and space).”
UPDATE: Was $3600. **SOLD**
This looks good.

Here’s a DJ-3A in good condition. I’ve only seen 2 other ’65s.
“Amazing but no rust ever or anyplace. It’s been sitting for a few years and has bad gas in it and doesn’t want to stay running. Flathead inline 4 with floor shift three speed. Fun time at the parade or cruise.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
This appears pretty solid for a east coast wagon. It might be a good price.
“This jeep has been in my family since 1963 and until now its had a place to stay. interior was redone in late 90″s. engine is complete but hasn’t been started in a few years, have some parts also. Willing to take partial trade doe guns or boat.”

“This truck was used very little only to haul water once a year. The truck has a Chevy 327 V8 it is a three speed with a Warn Over Drive, The truck runs and drives.”
Here’s a parts rig or it needs another body.
