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.
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 .
A 1966 issue of jeep news covered the new Meyer M-III cab and highlighted the Nebraska Ruff Riders car show win.
It’d be cool to see the roof-mounted spare tire rack.
I always liked the Meyer cab ,much more stylish than other tops in that time period. I have one on my 66 CJ5. Found it in a junkyard GI AUTO SALVAGE. Paid $125.00 GOOD DEAL…
Dan .. I’ll see if I can locate an example.
Mike .. Wow, that was a good price! I agree with you that it was the best looking and best styled of the jeep tops.
I am looking for window channels for a Meyer half top any suggestions?
By window channels, do you mean the rubber? Or door-window channels?
CD, if you’re talking about the tracks the windows slide up & down on, they are pretty standard stuff. Your local auto glass shop would have it, Not these new mobile glass guys, but an old established shop. On my Meyer cab doors, the tracks were fine, but the felt liners were worn out. These also were easy to replace with after market rubber liners that I cut to size.
I am talking about the track the Windows side in. I have checked with several body shops, with no luck, but have not checked with the glass shops. I have seen some of the rubber channels on line but could not tell if they would work. Seems like straight pieces cut to length would work.
CD, if no luck with the glass shops, repair of these tracks would be basic & simple. My tracks needed work also. I was able to fabricate to fit from stock aluminum angle I found in the Home Depot. Along with some spot welds or pop rivets, I did a decent repair that has lasted over 15 years. I used the stock cut to fit channel molded rubber and glued it to the tracks. It can be done, just takes time & patience.
Thank you all for the help I was able to get what i needed at an auto glass shop. It took a while but we were able to locate a vendor that had a product that will work. I am restoring a 1968 Jeep Go-for-digger backhoe
CD, You’re welcome, glad I could be of service.
