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 .

This rare Warn Hub Selective Drive owner’s manual was saved for decades by Merton Day. His Grandson, Frank Day, generously sold this along with some last-of-a-kind Free Lock hub information to me.
This owner’s manual is one long, two-sided brochure measuring 20 1/2″ x 2 7/8″ that folds up into a 2 7/8″ x 2 7/8″ square (the top is to the far right of the first image below). Here is the original version. This could be called the front:

Maury shared this cure for his foot pedal:
Like some others who have mid-60’s V6 CJs with the hanging (suspended) type accelerator pedal, I’ve found my ’67 CJ5 to be somewhat uncomfortable to drive over long, and even not-so-long distances due to the awkward placement and size of the original stock gas pedal. It’s no problem for me to reach the gas pedal with the front part of my foot when my heel is on the floor, as I wear a size 13 shoe. Even so, I’ve found that the muscles in the front of my shin frequently begin to ache from having to constantly hold my foot up at the angle necessary to depress the gas pedal.

Jim spotted this one. Could be a good price.
“I’m selling a 1971 Jeep wrangler CJ 5, It is lifted and has a set of 33×12.50-15 wheels on it. It runs great, starts right up, clutch feels good, shifts good. Its 4 wheel drive and has the twin stick transfer case with the ” dauntless V6″ engine. The Jeep was restored in the early to mid 90’s, i believe its all original except for the paint and wheels. The front seats are in good condition, only rear seat has started to show wear. With a little work, you can have a great beach cruiser or just all around great fun Jeep. These CJ5’s are becoming harder and harder to find so here’s your chance to own one. Come take it for a drive around my place and lets talk Jeeps.”
This has a winch and a warn OD. Could be a good price. Has a dash made from diamond plate.
“I have a 62 Jeep willys that i have had around the farm for a few years and it is getting hard for me to get in and out of it with having the lift, so here it is.

spare 275 65 18 tires and wheels for summer
Warn winch with wired remote
Warn hubs
Overdrive installed
3 speed tranny installed, 4 speed included

Basically this is a turnkey wheeler that you can drive on the roads
The only things I would trade for would be a stock height, flat fender willys, with different value made up with cash, either on your end or mine.
Not looking for show winner, nor rust bucket”
