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 engine is frozen.
“This 1963 FC 170 has been owned by my uncle for the past 25 years or so. It was originally purchased in a farm in upstate NY and towed home to NJ. The engine and transmission were rebuilt. It has the Hurricane inline 6 engine. It currently has a 12 volt alternator and all related components were switched to the 12v versions. In the mid 90s, the entire frame was swapped out for a rust free unit. I believe the axles were also rebuilt at some point (I think the ratios are 4.11) with the 3 spd trans. The stake bed was also replaced. Recently, the truck has sat for a while which unfortunately caused all of the brakes to seize up. These were also completely replaced last year, including the booster. Unfortunately, during this time, the engine has froze and we have been unable to get it moving again. The overall condition of the truck is pretty decent, except for the cab. It has rust in all the usual places with several floor board holes. The door hinges are shot on the one side and the other is on the way out (be careful opening them!). I think the only piece of glass that is good is the rear window. The truck has a functioning plow setup and it was used for many years as a plow rig. I believe it is a PTO style pump that runs off of the flywheel, but I’m not positive. The jeep is currently located in Atlantic Highlands.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1950.
This looks solid. I’m not sure what that is in the middle of the custom front bumper.

Hog forwarded this auction. Bidding just ended on this CJ-5 previously owned by Bing Crosby, reaching a high of $5850. I suspect it will be back on eBay at some point.
“Barn stored since 1973. Perfect running condition. Originally used on Rising River Ranch by the Crosby Cattle Co. Owned by Bing Crosby from new until 1973. All original, but seats and turn signal assembly. As you can see in the pictures the cosmetics are not perfect, but are easily fixed. This thing could climb a wall! She’s ready to go and up to date on all paperwork. Pink slip in hand.”

This looks in good shape for the price.
