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 .
Here’s an unusual binder. It’s not an industrial equipment book as advertised by the seller, but an Willys Overland Accounting book.

Maury forwarded this link about the double-wide wrangler. Someone else did too, but I’ve managed to misplace that email.
UPDATE: This is back on eBay
This looks great. Lots of good detail photos on eBay. The restorer passed away, which is the reason for the sale. This is a no reserve auction.

This doesn’t look in good shape. It’s missing a motor.
“1948 Jeep CJ 2 – Stock #1499
Good one to rebuild. This is a CJ 2 with the 4 speed transmission and 4 wheel drive. Motor is out but is included as is the steering column. Has some floor rust and cowl rust but very repairable. Good North Dakota Title and delivery is available.”

Steve spotted this clock. Someone has one of these listed for $799 on eBay.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $12,000.
Walter forwarded this link. It looks like part of the door has been indented or punctured, but that’s where the gas filler is located. There’s a much nice one at Barrett Jackson for less that includes a trailer: http://www.barrett-jackson.com/application/onlinesubmission/lotdetails.aspx?ln=624&aid=283

The tub appears in good shape. This looks like a light fiberglass model, maybe acme or AJs?
“Fiberglass jeep tub $1200 o.b.o”
Thanks to Warren for forwarding this lead. Perhaps it is more accurate to call these mini-jeep trains, but just outside Freeport, Maine, there is a CJ-5 and CJ-7 that still pull tourists in a tourist-trailer around the sand (which I think they call ‘narrated coach tours’). You can learn more about them here. I managed to find a few photos of them on Flickr. It looks like there are two different coaches.

Gerald spotted this jeep ring sold by Fast Eddie’s Jewelry. You can find them on Facebook. They will custom make all kinds of rings. Hmm .. not sure I have a category for this topic!

Nick spotted what appears to be a very original CJ-3A. This may be a very unique find.
“This jeep has been in our family since 1951! It is a Willys (civilian) and has NOT been modified. Color is dark green with a custom vinyl white top, doors, seats and back window coverings. The battery is new. Includes trickle charger. The tires are original. Second brake light added. All parts are available. Mileage: 27,117.9 – towed for hunting and fishing expeditions, some road miles.”
Nice looking restoration.
“1965 Jeep CJ-5A Tuxedo Park Mark IV
ID# 832215083 Dauntless V6 Engine, 4 speed Standard
Incredibly done, body off, absolutely perfect CJ 5A very rare Tuxedo Park
Mark IV.
A Buick (standard Jeep issue) 225 Dauntless V-6 engine that purrs like new,
and the rest you can certainly tell from the pictures.
There are only two notable issues; driver door window crack, and it is a
little tough braking.
Shifts perfectly, all correct Jeep except the tail lights. These are chrome
but not correct for this year.
Power lock differential front and rear. Interior is amazing. Hard to find
Jeep hub caps.
Note the truck is a color change; Paint Code 230 was Parkway Green; Trim
Code 225 was Green Vinyl Pleat. Who cares.
Beautifully done in every regard, a real must to the Jeep collector.
Remember it’s a Tuxedo Mark IV.”
UPDATE: This scam has been drifting west on Craigslists. Bryan, whose eBay ad is the one copied by the scammer, was contacted by a woman who found his phone number in the scam ad.
Bryan wrote and told me, “I talked to a lady today that almost got sucked in. Her husband is in the military and the scammer told her he was overseas fighting and could arrange shipping for the jeep. She said the scammer reeled her in with the his false military fighting for our country story….she said the only thing that stopped her was my eBay ad and my phone number I put on the ad. She called me to confirm it was false.” Bryan has reported the situation to the FBI. You can contact the FBI at this phone number (251) 438-3674.
There’s a M-38 craigslist scam that’s been listed on about ten craigslists along the east coast. The text came from a January 5 eBay listing.
This is the pic that’s been included in the ad:
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8000.
Walter found this one. It looks solid from the front. It has some unusual windshield bumps.
“In great condition and all original parts, interior, etc. has been garage kept”
This looks like a good one. What’s the metal hook sticking out above the jockey box?
