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 .
No words, but fun little illustration. It’s part of a series of identical cards with different illustrations (non jeep).

Nice looking restoration. Here’s some information about the super jeep:
http://www.superjeep.com/Folklore/folklore.html
(Note, you might remember the old site as superjeep.info. Bruce updated that to superjeep.com)
“This is a very rare authentic 1973 Jeep CJ-5 “Super Jeep.” It has been meticulously restored to original specifications and details. It has its original factory issued 304 V8 with power steering and power brakes. These were rare options at the time this model was produced. Most of the Super Jeeps had 258 6 cylinder engines with manual steering and brakes. It was last registered and inspected in August of 2012 and still continues to run and drive great.
There is not a lot of information available on the Super Jeep other than the copies of a few articles written about them at the time, They were only manufactured for one year in 1973 and it is rumored that only a few hundred of the models were made.
Everything works besides the gas and oil pressure gauge. I’m not sure why but the previous owner reset the odometer during restoration so the actual mileage of the Jeep is unknown. Since the restoration, 420 miles have been put on it. The Jeep does not have a roof, and the original style white soft top is almost impossible to find. However, there are many aftermarket soft tops that can be fitted for this CJ-5.”

(06/06/2014) It’s got a little bit of flaking paint, but doesn’t appear too bad.

Jeep was repainted sometime in the 80’s and has held up OK but has some surface rust, no holes in the body like most of the Jeeps out there. Note: the area near the driver side door opening is not rust, just a spot where the paint came off and is in primer.

(06/21/2014) Nice looking truck.
“This is a 1958 Willys truck that was built around 2001 it has a small block chevy engine, th350 automatic transmission, three link ladder bar rear end, mustang ll front suspension with power rack and pinion steering, aluminum tilt steering column, A/C, flowmaster exhaust, lokar shifter, new tires and wheels, and just too much to list here without forgetting something a serious buyer can call for more information. I drive the truck about once a week it runs and drives great and attracts a lot of attention. The paint cleans up real good as you can see but it is old and has scratches chips dings touch ups and imperfections and really could use a respray but it is a driver and not a perfect show truck. I do not need help selling the truck I am not desperate to sell the truck just looking to fund a new project. NO PAYPAL, NO TEXT, NO EMAIL, NO CHECKS, NO LOWBALLERS. If you are a serious potential buyer you can call me and make an offer or set an appointment to see it. 17,000 O.B.O.”

“Here is a running jeep. I have all the parts for it, I believe it was restored in 70’s and I’ve had it since since 1997. I had the transfer case and hubs rebuilt then. It has been on my 18 acre ranch and use only occasionally, but hardly ever the past 3 years. I’ve got an electric fuel pump but have the original. Needs a muffler, fuel pump and the generator rebuilt as well as the original gas tank. I do have the original but it’s all rusted out. It does have newer tires.
