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 .
Some of the folks from Alaska Or Rust got together last weekend for a trip into the Blue Ridge Mountains via Skyline Drive, Shenandoah National Park, Rockytop Overlook, Blue Ridge Parkway, and a few other places (I don’t have a map of their exact route). If you have Facebook, you can view all the pics Bill Reiss took here: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10156047526007987&set=a.10156047528832987&type=3&theater

Looks like a nice outing. My favorite park.
Skyline drive has lots of side trails.
What we used to do in the 70’s with the 59 cj3b was pull up to a wooden post holding the chain that blocked the trail and give it a couple bumps with the Jeep. Loosten post drive onto trail and put post back up.
cj5 has Kubota conversion I believe…love to know how it turned out and if it would be done again, as I have a t98 in my cj6 with bad f head!
David,
Yes it does have the Kubota conversion. Bill loves it and would do it again. Andreas (who went on the Alaska Or Rust trip with Bill and I) also has the conversion, but in a pickup. He too loves it. The power was very impressive and, despite the fact that very little testing was done on either engine, both ran perfectly. I would consider running one as well, as they are pretty quiet, yet powerful.
