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. This section used to be split into jeeps, parts and other categories, but recent changes to eBay will require this information to be recoded.
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 .
Tom shared these.Not sure if they are both $600 or $600 each.

Gayland spotted this DJ for sale. If nothing else, looks like a good parts jeep.
“I have a 1972 mail jeep has good body and motor minus the transmission has title from when I bought it would make a good project vehicle”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1400.
Appears worth a look.
“I have a 1975 U.S. Postal jeep for sale ( It is RIGHT HAND DRIVE ) . It runs and drives but still needs work.

This includes a boat from a kiddie-boat ride (pics on fb), but I’m not sure why?

Might be worth a look. Needs work.
“Its a 1975 Jeep DJ series. It’s 2 wheel drive. It has a straight 6 (232ci 3.8L) and a automatic (a727) transmission. It’s right hand drive. it needs work. It’s a project. The battery is new. The front brakes are new. I replaced the transmission pan gasket on the transmission but it still leaks.
To get it at least in good driving condition, the transmission needs to be addressed to stop the leak. The brake system needs a flush. Tires should be replaced. The brake pedal itself needs new bushings. It needs some lights replaced. That’s the stuff that would get it on the road. After that I would check to make sure the alternator is good. Replace the fluids and do a good tune up. It’s does come with a new kick-down cable and bracket, as well as a new throttle cable. It also comes with a tow bar.”
UPDATE: **Sold** was $2900. See Bob’s comment regarding Benny.
(03/30/2019) Now I’m hungry for a hot dog. My favorite “hot dog” jeep was this surrey with a hot dog setup, also out of New Jersey.
“Benny’s got dog truck great Little business or event truck”
UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was $1500.
This might be a Safari-Kar build, though I can’t tell for sure.
“Great running custom Jeep. This is an ex postal Jeep (right hand drive) rebuilt and converted to look like a CJ. Inline 6 cylinder, auto trans (drips a little fluid), 2 wd. Solid frame and body(minimal rust), oversized tires (weather cracks), no top, no doors, what you see is what you get. It’s dependable and it’s also 43 years old. It was completely rebuilt 10+ years ago. No trades, cash only. Will not reply to “still for sale” send a number to call or text. Too many scammers out there.”
UPDATE: Eric is trying to learn more history about this DJ-5. It is currently has a Harley theme, but previously was blue and white. It has a 350 Chevy small block with a 350 turbo transmission.
OLDER PICS:
UPDATE: Back up for sale with some improvements.
