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 .
UPDATE: **SOLD** $2700. Paul pointed out that his probably has a ventilating windshield.
Runs and drives. If the rust isn’t bad, it could be a reasonable price.
“U.S. Forest service Low time unit. Has been stored for long time, runs like a champ.”
Looks to have a ventilating windshield.
Paul, yep, I bet you are right. I kept thinking the windshield looked odd, but without seeing the pivot arms it just didn’t occur to me.
That is a venting windshield, wish the picture from the backside was horizontal so we could see more detail – latches, arms, etc. Looks to have had all the vacuum wiper system removed. I’m reassembling a venting windshield right now, & pics of complete ones are hard to come by.
Galen,
Here’s the pics I’ve collected over the years. Maybe they will help?

hmmm , ventilating windshield on an open vehicle ? wheres the logic ? I do want one for my 67 cj6 though , it has a Kelly hardtop , its like a ****ing oven inside on a summer day ..
I thought the building looked familiar. The Jeep is pictured at ‘Alleycat’ which is the Army Surplus store in Boring, Oregon. However the phone number in the CL ad is not the number for the store. https://www.facebook.com/alleycatsupply/
Maybe Galen can phone one of the numbers and get some pictures.
Boring , Oregon , sounds about right ? I banished my ex wife to Oregon , up by the shakespeare festival , haight ashbury north , its where old hippies go to FRY , sure would like to find a ventilator windshield for my CJ-6 , I saw one on craigslist last year , N.O.S. $1200 semoilians , incomplete , just the 2 frames , no rubber , no props or handles .. oh well …
Just to clear up the name of “Boring” for this worldwide audience. “Boring” is the family name of the people that the town was named after. Nothing to do with the sidewalks being rolled up after dark.
