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: Price dropped to $5050

“This time capsule Jeep CJ5 comes straight out of the seventies with it’s four-color metal flake custom paint. This is base-coat / clear coat with metal flake and bright metallic that shines beautifully in the sun.
Built using a new all steel (Chrysler Licensed) reproduction body tub on a very nice original chassis; The hood, radiator support and front fenders are also new steel. There is no rust of any kind on the body. The frame is in excellent condition with only minor surface rust and no structural issues that I have found.
The Jeep starts and runs well with no smoke or unusual noises; powered by an original type Dauntless V6 engine and three speed manual transmission. The front axle has Warn locking hubs for highway use. This Jeep has been in storage for a few years and was freshened up to get it running and driving again. The clutch and brakes work well, but the brakes will need some adjustment as it pulls left a bit when braking.
A complete bestop soft top and soft doors are included. Tailgate is not present on the vehicle. Tires are in excellent condition. Original type tail lights, oil bath air cleaner and some miscellaneous parts are also included.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
Jeep has a front-end shimmy.
“Jeep is fantastic shape and ready to drive this summer. The one issue is if you hit a bad pot-hole it can get a front end shimmy that requires you to slow until it goes away.
If not for this issue I would have priced the vehicle MUCH higher, but am being honest and reducing the reserve price more than enough to fix it if desired.
A fix is not mandatory, you can drive for years as is, just making sure any possible buyer is aware of this issue. It’s the only issue with the jeep, everything else is great.
It normally drives smooth as can be.”
This jeep has under 10,000 miles. I don’t have time to look it up. Was there a Harley edition?

Jon forwarded this non-running project.
“1954 willys jeep model M170 military ambulance. Drive train is complete. I have extra pieces like top bows and air cleaner. The body is rough but repairable the engine is not running but is free turning. The original 24volt components are still with the jeep. The front fenders do come with the truck but are badly dented. The frame is extremely solid. This jeep does come with a Clean and clear TN title. Great for Father Son project. These jeeps are a rare 101 inch wheel base version. Many parts are available for this jeep including the sheet metal.”
Blaine found a flattie project and a Topeka project for sale and some other parts.
1. Flattie is $500. Dogs are worn, but the steel rims may have life. It’s sat for a long time.

Jeep is a real head turner and will take you ANYWHERE. Story behind the jeep was that it was in service during the korean war and was decommisoned from the military in 54. It was then used by the fire department as a utility truck and later sold to the public in the late 50’s. Whoever bought it from the fire department, professionally swapped the oriniginal 4 with the bullet proof Chevy 231. If youre looking for an awesome authentic military jeep, here it is.
