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 is worth a look. It includes a Koenig hardtop and a PTO winch. It has a few updates, including a heavy duty rear bumper and a steering wheel that I don’t recognize.

“1955 CJ 5 Runs and has a clean title Has a new carburetor, fuel pump, and battery. Has a PTO winch $4000 firm”
Lots of potential here. It also includes the Kelly top with vertical rear doors. It does have a title issue though.

“very solid Kaiser built CJ-5 restoration project, V-6 Dauntless (Buick) engine in running condition, working snowplow, excellent tires, transmission and clutch in working order, new fuel pump and filter, I flushed the fuel tank and lines which are very clean and rust free, recent oil change, other than surface rust there is no rust rot on the vehicle, floor is solid,
it runs and drives, doesn’t smoke, there is a title but it was signed in the wrong places by the previous owner and DMV wants a new title which requires submitting the existing title and a certified vin verification but CSP will not issue a vin verification unless the vehicle is roadworthy meaning all the lights, horn and wipers work, or you could just bond for a new title…
it also needs a battery, the emission air pump is seized and disconnected, the manual choke cable is stuck and needs replaced or lubed, drivers door latch needs a little work, there are some seeping seals and gaskets but the drivetrain seems in solid condition, some play in the steering, brakes work but could use attention, it was purchased new in Steamboat Springs, lifelong Colorado vehicle and sat in a field for a few years when the fuel pump went out, the odometer reads 05336, so I assume it’s rolled over, a great candidate for restoring though it wouldn’t take much to get it basic working condition and plow your drive. Email questions and contact info”
Here’s an interesting piece of history. According to the story, it is a promotion build Hurst Customs did for jeep. It’s unclear to me how many of these were made.

“A freaky Front Clip for sale – who is interested in a bit of Jeep mystery and history?
This front clip is from a promotional build Hurst Customs did for Jeep ..this was the time they partnered on the rare Hurst Jeepsters. I bought what came to be nicknamed the “Green Weenie” in early 1972 as the first retail owner from a Detroit dealer who got it from AMC — who had no interest in using it for promotions as intended….as they were scrambling to redesign the CJ5 anyway.
I would love to have someone use this fiberglass custom frontend to recreate either the bright green Hurst Jeep as pictured or use it for your custom build! It bolts onto a 71 or earlier CJ5 and I bet Jeepsters….i still have the Jeep but removed the front clip and stored over 30 years ago as I set up the Jeep to run the Rubicon.
Asking $3,000 front clip and side pipes. In Michigan but can be shipped pretty easily.
This may well be worth a look. Only two pics and no description provided.. Thanks to Andy for sharing.

“Only call if you want an appointment and bring cash”
Andy spotted this CJ-5 with a lift and rear pto gearbox installed. It also includes a Koenig half cab.

“‘m selling a Willy’s Jeep with a 2-point lift and PTO original to vehicle. The jeep has a title. I bought this as a project a while back haven’t done anything with it the previous owner did quite a bit of work on it the whole entire body was sandblasted metal is in really good shape which is rare. Body is primer with Automotive primer. will not take much work to finish body. Motor is unknown Currently out of the vehicle I was told it is going to need a rebuild I have a box full of parts off the engine looks like I have everything needed. All the hydraulic lines were replaced hydraulic cylinder repacked drivetrain gone through . All by previous owner . Brand new tires were put on a couple years ago no miles on them. This Jeep also comes with a factory plow pump and half cab with doors all original will not separate must buy everything these Jeeps with the three point hitch and 540 PTO are very rare especially in this condition.”
Bill’s selling this hard-to-find transmission PTO box. Thanks to Andy for sharing it.

“Go-for-Digger Trenchers were built on Willys and Kaiser-era Jeep CJ5’s duallys from the early 1960’s to the early 1970’s. There has to be a few more of these left out there, maybe one in need of parts…
Power transmission box PTO for a Go-for-Digger trencher with a build date around 1969/1970. As you see it. Spins freely. It’s one of 3 parts that I have left from a resto-modded CJ-5 that I built.
Another part is a correct front bumper with the solid steel bar reinforcement and blade lifting chain. Pics show bumper still attached.
The third part is the full-length set of 3/8” (I think) steel outer frame reinforcements that came on the GFD Trencher (and maybe the backhoe). Better pics soon, but if you know these things, you know what I mean. They are on the floor in last pic.
Pick up in Lancaster, PA.”
TJ shared this great Tux Park IV. It could use some new seats, but overall this appears in good shape. It even has an old club sticker on it.

“1966 Jeep CJ5 Tuxedo Park MK4 Factory Buick v6 Good tires”
Needs engine, but if you already have an engine, this is worth a look. Seems very solid.

“Needs motor replaced. Does not run currently! Motor threw a rod. Cannot be rebuilt”
This may be worth a look.

“1973 jeep CJ 5. Straight 6, 4 speed. Posi rear end. Roll cage, header intake. This Jeep has been sitting for awhile. It needs a battery and some TLC. It is on a DMV non-op. $3,000.”
A new dash and some paint would improve this rig quite a bit.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/380113754889055
“Runs great. Original Three Speed transmission, rebuilt. Original Dauntless V6 engine, rebuilt. Lots of fun Comes with soft top”
This maybe worth a closer look due to the classic deep dish slot rims and, possibly, the special aftermarket inset CJ-5 angled dash.
“Jeep sell whole. Ur gonna have to tow. Willing to trade for running car or street bike”
It’s a non runner, but still might be worth a look.

“1963 Jeep Willy’s Great project piece Non running motor Winch, towable, seats, doors, rollcage, and 2 tailgates”

“Old Willys jeep no motor or transmission has Duel wheels under it for sale or trade PM me if interested”
This jeep has some odd fenders. It also appears to have some Huffman hubs.

“Done up as a “army prop”. Has a military hood but it is a Civillian Jeep. Clean Tennesee Title 4cyl Motor is unknown. Frame has rust on front crossmember near steering linkage. Transmission doesn’t seem to shift at all. Trans crossmember is out of it. This is a TOTAL PROJECT that does not run, stop or steer. Don’t ask dumb questions. That’s why it’s priced so low. All four tires hold air and it will roll in a straight line. I can help you pull it up onto a trailer. Would be great for a mini golf course prop or yard art. Make a rat rod, fully restore it, let it sit in your yard, use it in a low budget movie, it can be yours for $1500 cash”
TJ shared this unusual driller and post-hole digger equipment.

“1956 Willy’s cj5 Runs and drives Does not have brakes Clean title on non op Lots of new parts Has some rust but no to bad Great ranch jeep I have a video of it running if wanted 3200 obo or trades”
I thought the front bumper on this was particularly unusual. Purpose built?

“1973 Jeep CJ5 * Does not run * Jeep was parked in my garage and has not been started for 25 years. Ran great when parked, but over time fuel lines cracked. Was going to restore it, but never got around to it. Fuel tank was pulled years ago. Engine wiring needs to be repaired/replaced I purchased the Jeep in 1987.

“1955 Willys CJ5 This car has tons of life left in it for countless more miles on the road, it’s not perfect but it’s a solid start with a little work could be back cruising in no time. I’ve had it for years loved it along the way but ready to get into some different projects and focus on one rather than being spread between several project cars. Hard top Bikini top 4×4 Has removable back seat”
This has a rare 0-9 King Seeley speedometer. The flat fender next to it looks to have an MB or GPW body (does not appear to be for sale). Thanks to TJ for sharing.

“1957 Willy’s Jeep Make a Reasonable Offer! As is! Is a project Have title (Idaho titles) [hidden information] Charlie Cascade and no delivery Pick up only.”

“I have 2 jeeps and 1 Datsun pickup were were going to use in a restore project. We have switched directions, and no longer going to complete that project. $2500. You haul. Located in Potomac.”

Listed as a 1952, it’s not clear if this is actually a 3A or a CJ-3B chassis (or something else). The body looks to be a very rare Parkette CJ-3B body kit.
