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 .

“Posting my 1972 Jeep CJ-6 project. New frame (New, never used, OEM frame from the factory) currently sitting on brand new Old Man Emu suspension. Frame has been rust proofed and POR 15 coated. Dana 44 axle in rear with new pinion seals and brake lines. Tub in rough shape, but very salvageable. Full Meyers hardtop in very good condition. Meyers Half cab in fair good condition. Dana 20 transfer case in good working order, T-15 3 speed transmission in good working order. Also includes 2 sets of wheels/tires: original steel rims with old school steel belted offroad tires and a set of American racing wagon wheels with BGF all terrains.
Also included at asking price are the power train that I planned to put in this jeep: 1998 4.0 liter inline six motor with 70k miles on it, AX-15 5 Speed transmission with 70k miles on it, new clutch, Dana 300 transfer case already bolted to AX15.
You will need a trailer. Tub is off of the frame, both transmissions and both transfer cases are off of the frame, the motor is currently on the frame (but could easily be taken off). Frame is a roller at present: suspension and axles are in place. I have a trailer and can transport within New England for extra fee.
Photos below show current state as well as the last time the Jeep was together. everything has been stored in doors on stands since being taken apart.
reason i’m selling: family and I are moving and don’t know where we will end up just yet.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $800.
If the engine is good, there’s some value, but not a whole lot.
“Got an old flatty that needs a new home. As it sits it’s basically a rolling chassis with axles, tranny, and t case. It comes with an engine that will need to be built, can round up a windshield and tailgate for it if you like. Rusty with scabbed in floors like most of these that you run across these days.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2700.
Engine spins.
“Complete drive train motor -trans -transfer case go devil l-134 motor spins a lot of things rebuilt -Needs tub have a few body parts to go with it”
UPDATE: Still Available.
“A 1967 Jeepster V6 auto, 4 WD with both full metal top and custom half top in excellent condition. everything rebuilt but motor.”
This April 12, 1954, Power Tower patent filing by Wallace Johnson and Robert Fisher was said to be designed for other vehicles besides the jeep, but given it’s length, it’s hard to imagine it would work on anything that wasn’t flat like the top of the jeep.
Here’s a description: The present invention relates to a power tower for use by workmen employed as painters, electrical fixture repairrnen, aircraft maintenance men, window washers, and a multitude of similar occupations wherein it is necessary toperform a task at some distance above the ground and thus ordinarily require the use of ladders or scaffolding of some type. More particularly, the invention relates to a workmans platform supported by a collapsible tower structure which in turn is mounted on a wheeled vehicle.
Most of you have probably seen this, but for documentation purposes, this high-flying kid in a toy jeep made the cover the January 30, 1943, issue of Collier’s Magazine. There are a couple pretty cheap issues on eBay.
Maybe your significant other would like this? I think mine deals with enough jeep stuff.

“Jeep needs some work runs.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
If the running gear is in good shape, it sure seems like there’s value here.
“1972 cj6 jeep $1500obo”
Seller just wanted to save these from being destroyed.

“I rescued 2 Ford GPW tubs that were being stripped for parts down in Sacramento. I couldn’t bare to see them scrapped knowing their history. Many of these Jeeps came from nearby military installations and i would hate to see their sacrifices scrapped for parts. I know both are GPW because of the shape of the rear tool boxes. The front glove boxes are different which will tell you roughly what year range they are.
Both tubs are somewhat rough but nothing that cant be welded its just steel and these GPW’s are TINY!!!! There is no title for either of them and i haven’t been able to find any serial numbers. Happy to provide a bill of sale. I know its possible to get a hull number assigned to these as I had one on my 1951 CJ3A. I would love to see these go to someone competent who will either restore or at least let them live on as someone else’s project. $500 each $1000 for both.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $500.
(06/04/2018) It’s a project/parts.

“This was a leftover project my son picked up and decided he didn’t have time for it is titled as a 1950 cj3a post owner did some extensive chassis work it was set up for scout axles uses Wrangler YJ Springs the frame rails have been box tin plated it has custom crossmembers and bumpers on both ends he had it set up with an AMC V8 in it also has hanging petals course you can tell from the pictures that the body has been linked and out and needs a little work but would be a very solid project rock crawler Rat Rod or? But the important part is it’s got a clean title ”

Unclear how much value is here.
“willies jeep high hood tub, fenders, and hood also has a rolling chassie
good project starter or maybe just some extra parts”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000.
Might be worth a look. Needs work.
“Its a 1975 Jeep DJ series. It’s 2 wheel drive. It has a straight 6 (232ci 3.8L) and a automatic (a727) transmission. It’s right hand drive. it needs work. It’s a project. The battery is new. The front brakes are new. I replaced the transmission pan gasket on the transmission but it still leaks.
To get it at least in good driving condition, the transmission needs to be addressed to stop the leak. The brake system needs a flush. Tires should be replaced. The brake pedal itself needs new bushings. It needs some lights replaced. That’s the stuff that would get it on the road. After that I would check to make sure the alternator is good. Replace the fluids and do a good tune up. It’s does come with a new kick-down cable and bracket, as well as a new throttle cable. It also comes with a tow bar.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000.
Has lots of mods. Includes an overdrive.
