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.

There are those 66 Mustang tail lights again, and when I installed them on my 66 CJ5 back in the early 80’s, I thought that was unique.
Mike,
The Mustang lights were a popular mod on the west coast. I haven’t seen them as much on the east coast jeeps, so you were pretty unique as best as I can tell.
According to the air cleaner, the 289 is likely from a 1966-68 Bronco. I was wondering how they got the headers to clear the steering shaft – then I noticed the welds. The brakes have been converted to a dual master cylinder with a swinging pedal, but the clutch still goes through the floor board, likely with the Advance Adapter chain kit. If it doesn’t have a Dana 41 like the early 1949 CJ3a’s did and 11″ brakes, it’s a nice Jeep at a decent price.
I once bought a CJ3A with a 289 in it. The builder (a monkey I think) shortened the throwout bearing arm, due to the loss of leverage it required two men and a boy to depress the clutch pedal. The brake pedal hit the bell housing before locking up the brakes. It was converted to Saginaw steering. That was a good move but the steering shaft had to be dropped to change the oil filter. Nice rig after fixing some issues.
