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: **SOLD** Was $1750.
Not sure how much value is here, but the body looks in decent shape. Engine has been disassembled.

“Willys Cj-5 v6, Manual transmission. Front disc brakes and power steering conversion. 12 volt electrical system. 4″ suspension lift with rancho shocks. Full roll bars. Soft top with doors. Bucket seats. Body is in great shape for age with only surface rust.”

It was a productive evening yesterday.
My wife spent her second-birthday helping me in the garage (The 25th of June is the day of her bombing .. she says it was like a whole new life after that). She’s a great help; she does any task asked without complaint. I couldn’t ask for a better co-mechanic!
It’s late, so I’ll make this short. We made good progress today. We installed the vacuum holding tank, installed the passenger seat, bled the brakes, rewired some of the frayed wires, connected the transmission and engine, and slid the power train back into place. Now we just have to re attached some wires, hoses, and tighten a few things and we’ll get to test it. Here are a few
pics:
It’s hard to leave the computer, even in the garage!

Cleaning up after a long dirty day.
Original paint, too?
“Willys Jeep for sale, excellent all original condition, with only 15k miles, no rust through or rot. The only items not original are the wheels and tires. This is a true barn yard find (literally). Vehicle has spent its life on a ranch and has been started, serviced, and driven on a regular basis. Original plates, purchased from Quincy Willits Motors. Cons: Light oil leak from engine.”

This has one of the rare miner hood ornaments. I’ve run across a couple others on jeep hoods.
