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: Still Available. It’s been confirmed this is a CJ-V35U
(07/20/2015). The serial number of 10882 falls within the first and last CJV-35U (#10883 was a CJ-V35U).

The seat belt hold downs are where the cast radio generator set up mount. The light switch plate is another indicator of a CJV-35/U and one can see that on the rear cross member, the holes are there for the lifting rings and bumperettes. To bad it has an M-38 windshield and what looks like man M.B. or GPW engine hood.
A friend on mine went and looked at this. The title vin doesn’t match the vehicle Vin. The tag does say CJV…
The tailgate was enclosed at some point, and the fenders are full of filler. The jeep has not been on title in CA since 99. There was a hint of gray paint under the white.
He said it runs and drives great.
Thanks for the confirmation Chris. Interesting that the Vins don’t match. Could the title vin be an engine number? I’ve seen that done many times. Sure looks like a solid jeep.

I’m not sure about that. He didn’t look past the vin on the plate. He said the seller acted suprised they didn’t match up. It was enough to make him walk.
Also the title said 1958 CJ.
Yeah, I can understand that issue. I hope the seller can sort that out.
