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: **SOLD** Was $700.
Seller will not deal long distance. Looks like an early MB body given the missing glove box.

<– Day 11 – Saturday March 2016 FC Roundup Report | Beginning | Day 13 – Monday March 21st: Food Testers –>
You gotta have pie in Pietown, New Mexico!
Today we drove from Globe, Arizona, to Tularosa, w Mexico (see yesterday’s post here). We woke up early, aware we had a long drive ahead of us. We headed north out of Globe via Highway 60. We said goodbye to the Suhuaro and prickly pear cactus as we climbed rapidly into the mountains.
Our trip today took us from Globe, Arizona, to Tularosa, New Mexico.
After an hour or so we dropped into the beautiful Salt River Canyon along some twisty and windy roads. We soon stopped for some photos.
Ann at an overlook on the south side of the canyon.
A better view of the Salt River canyon.
Parked at an overlook on the north side of the canyon.
The rock wall on the opposite side of the road was pretty, too.
John shared this video about a Dutch couple that has traveled the world in a Model T.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
Seth forwarded this unusual vehicle. There’s more about it on Bring-a-trailer. The current bid is $22,511!
“This is a rare Ferves Ranger, a derivative of Fiat company, has a 500cc Fiat engine and drive components.
Between 1966 to 1971 There were only approx. 600 of this made, only about 50 known to be found, and only about 8 to 10 in the U.S.
This one is in excellent running condition, and drive fantastic.
This would be a perfect addition to a micro car collection or for a beach or mountain buggy.
Has current California title and personalized plate.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(02/20/2016) Runs and drives. Worth a look.
“Good condition, brakes and clutch are at the end of there life cycle.
starts and runs good, tires are in good shape Needs some tlc and it will be a great jeep.
Some minor rust and dents and dings in the tub but all in working order.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8000
(03/23/2016) Nice vintage CJ-5, though the tails lights don’t look stock. But, that’s trivial.
“1961 CJ-5 Bone Stock / Totally un-molested. F-Head 134 Hurricane 4 Cylinder / 3 Speed Transmission T 18 twin shift transfer case. Everything on the jeep works. Jeep has new springs and shocks, shackle nuts and bolts and Fresh a oil change.The heater even works, but will need the heater core replaced. It has a small drip. Hard top is in great condition, one of the best hard tops I have ever seen. As you can see from the pictures there is slight surface rust on the hard top, just scratches. The body is very straight. The jeep has always been kept in garage. The body has minor rust as you can see from the picture. At some point in its life the jeep received a matching sky blue second paint job. The passenger side floor board is the worst and will need to be fixed, but this a pretty simple job. Tires have good tread and I have a spare pair of studs.
I was thinking modifying this jeep, but I can’t bring myself to molest a Jeep this nice. It’s a true survivor It’s almost impossible to find a 55 year old CJ-5 in this condition. I’m looking for a Tuxedo Park Mark IV. Drive it home tomorrow or tow it with the tow bar. Bring a 2″ Ball. I drive this Jeep every weekend to Garage Sales. I bought it from the original owner with 34,000 miles. They put $2,000 worth of work into it in 2014. Water Pump, Battery, Radiator, Fuel Tank, New Carb, Fuel Line, New Fan Belt, Ignition, Starter, Etc. Etc. Etc. I also have pristine period correct collectors license plates I might throw in for the right price. I also have a Dana 30 front axle with discs and completely rebuilt and restored Ramsey PTO winch. I would have to adjust the price if you wanted me to include these too.
$6,000 OBO or trade for a Tuxedo Park Mark IV CJ5 or CJ6 I will give you cash to make up the balance if the Tuxedo Park if it’s really nice.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5000.
“1953 CJ3b for sale. Taft, CA, near Bakersfield.
I have owned it for 13 years.
Runs OK and is licensed.
Electronic distributor, otherwise stock.
Paint faded, compared to photo.
Mechanical winch.
Photos available.”
Looks like a nice combo. Can’t be too many in the area.
“1946 Willys Jeep frame off restoration, body was sand blasted, undercoated, and painted. It has completely new wiring that has been upgraded to 12v. New carburetor, steering joints, seats, windows, tires and a lot more. Tires and rims are era correct. It runs and drives great. It comes with a trailer that has also been sandblasted and painted to match. The trailer has the original pintle hitch and the turn and stop lights work. A lot more work and parts have been put into both the trailer and the Jeep than what was listed here.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4000 More pics of the racing jeep here
Ted’s got this racing jeep and a plow jeep for sale. You can see closeups of Ted’s jeeps at this link. In the pics you’ll see Teds girls, who have been driving the jeeps for two years now. That’s pretty cool!”
This racing jeep is for sale. It has been in storage for quite some time ,but fired right up and will be a killer start for someone looking to get into the racing game. Back in the day it was built by a guy in Ellington CT named Mel Sherette of Mels Auto Body. At the time he was mopping up all kinds of big bad V8s with this Jeep and Im sure with a little work it still will. Built Buick 231V6 W/Turbo 400 ,Dana 44s ,Desert Dogs and a set of Paddles. Lots and lots of custom work done to this jeep . Willys pick up or wagon front tilt clip molded to a home made cj type rear body . Full cage and harnesses . Kinda old school vintage racer dual points and all but could be a real killer with a few modern updates . Would be right at home on short tracks ,courses ,sand drags ,hillclimbs , or would be a great candidate for some ice racing . I will be happy to supply detailed pics to anyone interested . $4500 OBO
Includes the warn winch? Might be a good price.
“M38 Willys Jeep
Chevy Small Block V8 – 283
Licensed as a “Horseless Carriage”
Custom running gear, warn split gears, floating hubs, Detroit locker front, power locker rear, brand new swampers LBZ 34×9.5×16, 5k winch, custom bumper, plus more.. ”
http://seattle.craigslist.org/est/cto/5498704070.html
Includes a warn winch. I highly doubt the underside is like “brand new”.
“VERY RARE 1976 CJ 6!!! 58000 original miles. Runs and drives.4×4. 6cyl engine- 3 speed Trans. Everything works!! Jeep made these in very limited numbers…. Even has a classic Warn winch… Rust in normal spots on body – but all repairable…. Frame and undercarriage like brand new!! ”
http://washingtondc.craigslist.org/nva/cto/5498766368.html
Can’t beat the price.
“I promised and wagered Wifey,
My future project would be gone in the next few days.
Free in the next few days of this posting only; 1961 (?) Willys Jeep, no engine, trans, interior, pretty much a rolling chassis. The front clip is a fiberglass module.
No papers ! I checked with DMV before I purchased a few years ago, this vehicle is not in the system, so no problem registering. I internet searched vine #, best I could come up with is 1960-61 year model.
It’s simple, the first person to show up with a trailer, or way of getting it off of my property as is, with prior arrangements, takes it. After Wednesday, it’s gone.’

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $350.
Jim spotted this one.
“I have a 1941 Willy’s Jeep for sale. I will be honest the Jeep got hit by a tree. Landed right on top of it. I believe it can still be repaired enough to drive. I had it running about 7 years ago while I was home on leave from the Army, but I have not touched it since. Look at the pictures and you will see the damage is pretty bad, but like I said you can fix it or use it for parts. Everything is there except the windshield that was smashed by the tree. If they do not come get it by Wednesday then its still for sale. ”
UPDATE: Was for sale last month. Price has been increased, suggestion someone bought and is reselling it? New seller doesn’t mention the dump bed.
“Restored !

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $750.
I think this is the fourth CJ-6 hardtop I’ve seen listed this year.
“I got this with the jeep I bought. Just found out that this is a Koenig model 620 and only fits a CJ6. We just tried to mount it on a 1974 cj5 and it was too long. Back corners are squared off , cj5 tub has rounded corners. Sorry for past confusion but just found the Koenig tag. Has slide up and down windows in doors. All the glass is good except back window is cracked and metal is super straight . Very rare. Not many cj6’s out there $750 Obo email or call if interested.”
Not sure how much value is here.
“NEEDS ASSEMBLY. I paid almost $3500 for this Jeep. I only test drove once after purchasing. 350cid, Chevy engine and Chevy 4-spd tranny, transfer-case, and axles. Chrome wheels. Needs work- I built “tuned headers” from old pair I had to fit frame. Needs drive-line repair and assembled. I have ALL parts shown in picture to make look like picture again. Am selling cheap because I need the money. $1500 OBO.”
