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 $7800.
(12/07/2018) Looks in good shape, but has an L-head.

“1963 cj3b Willys Jeep. $8500 or best offer call for details Mike. Emails will be responded to via phone. Include phone number. Texting is ok.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3900.
Hard to find these in this price range. It does have rust and may need a clutch.
“Clutch not engaging after yesterday, Plowed excellent all day, I assume it needs a new clutch. Needs to be towed
Very original/stock cj8 with rare 4cyl, all parts are excellent including top, interior, ect… just has a rotted body of course….. fenders, windshield frame, hood and frame very good. Drive as is for now and restore later with new tub ($2300 in primer)
Ran and drove great and everything works as it should except heater fan. Plow works excellent with recent overhaul of parts/fluid. Great acreage vehicle or restore project. New radiator and brake line.
I have done auto body for over 30 years and understand how rare these are and much more rare to find unmolested! Easy resto or driver…
Not ambitious about selling, so cash with no offers or texts!!!”
It’s a nice looking and a clean jeep, too. I suspect the price is based on the “professional appraiser” valuation.

“Selling my ’53 Willys Jeep. It has new tires including the spare, all new brakes which includes lines, hoses wheel cylinders and linings. New cap, rotor, points and condenser. Runs great and can be driven down the road legally. I have an clean title for it as well. I changed the oil recently with a synthetic oil and now it smokes on accel which it never did before ( honestly). I will change back to 10w30 and hopefully it will stop.. The body tub is rusted on the floor pans other than that it looks respectable driving down the road. Its primary use is on our property for hunting and baiting. Moving on to a UTV so I can keep up on the weekends with the neighbors. Text me if you have any questions. I have another hood that was used and the new fuel tank straps and sender which I haven’t installed. That goes along with it as well.”
This vintage GI Joe commercial includes a real jeep and jeep driver who attests to GI Joe’s accuracy.
The May/June 1960 issue of the California Highway and Public Works department periodical included an article of a survey of the Sierra Highway that included a CJ-5 and a wagon.

Carl shared this photo of a jeep garage that he said was making the rounds on Linked-In. I have too many tools and not enough organization (or wall space) to do this. And, I can’t let Ann see this or she’ll start organizing my tools on walls!!

Not sure how much value is here. If the chassis is well done, a person could widen the body of this and maybe make something a little different. I think this might ride hard, given the suspension is built to handle a lot more weight than a jeep?
