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 .
Appears in good shape.

“1947 cj2a willys jeep. This jeep was restored frame up a few years back with photos. Runs and drives great for a old jeep. Has new wiring and brakes. All stock with rare Koenig hard top everything works.”
Matt’s selling this hardtop. Looks like Koenig hardtop, mid-1960s, and probably a 550 Super Full Cab. The sliding side windows, the slight angle and the front top of the door window, and the angles of the roof fit that model.

“1959 CJ-5 Complete Hard Top for Sale
This hard top and doors came off of a 1959 CJ-5. It was well maintained throughout the years and is in complete functional condition today with only a few spots containing surface rust (where the Jeep’s body would have touched).
All glass is intact and damage free
All windows function
Hardware to attach it to your Jeep is not included
Beautiful wood paneling on roof and doors
Manufacturer is unknown to me, as there is no id plate attached.
This top is steel and heavy. It is a minimum two man lift.
Yes…it is Pink! The story is a farmer in the UP bought the CJ-5 Jeep new in 1959 with the hardtop. After some gentle use (no dents whatsoever on this thing!), the Jeep given to the farmer’s daughter on her 16th birthday. She immediately had the entire Jeep professionally painted PINK. All the wood trim was removed, it was sprayed and reassembled.
The gentleman I bought this from restored the Jeep, but only had plans for summer fun, and had no intention of driving it in the winter and did not want the hard top. I bought it with a friend for a winter Jeep build, but that project has been abandoned for a CJ-2A project instead.
I will not ship the top. That is not possible, so please do not ask.
I will only accept cash as payment and I will only sell this to a real live person, standing in front of me.
If you are oversees for work and your Brother’s X-wife is going to come take a look at it, she had better bring cash, a pickup truck and be able to dead lift 150 lbs.
I will not talk money on the phone, text or e-mail. I have some wiggle room in the price, but I know how nice this 59(!) year old top is and I will keep it before I give it away.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1250.
Travis spotted this pair of CJ-5s.

“Parting out a 48 Jeep, whole or parts I just need the front Differential. Everything is in pretty decent shape but the front floor have been patched, but not very well and probably need to be redone. The frame has been converted to use YJ springs. I believe the Dana 60 in the rear is out of a 76 Ford 3/4 ton truck and measures 67 inches wide WMS to WMS, and I believe it has 4.10 gears in it but I would have to double check.
Body: $100
Frame: $100
Springs: $50
Teraflex YJ revolver shackles: $50
Top: $100
Dana 60 rear: $100 Continue reading

“Becks all steel top just removed from willys jeep. Top is in good working condition. It does have some rust. Can bring to Hermantown.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $900.
This might have a slightly modified Porter & Reed hardtop, but I’m not certain of that.
“1948 Willy’s Jeep CJ2A. Have clear title. Disassembled but have all parts. Steel hard top. Frame and main parts stored in a storage container. Body is solid but ruff. Frame is good, axles, transfer, tranny engine are in good shape.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $400.
Looks restorable.
“I have a Kelly All-Steel hardtop for sale. It came off of one of my CJ3b’s. It is not in perfect shape as you can tell by the pictures, but it is mostly all there and complete. It has the doors and rear hatch. Door handles work and the rear hatch handle works. Windows will roll up and down with help and could use some adjusting. All of the glass is there with the exception of the driver’s side door window is cracked and the rear hatch window is some type of plexiglass (not certain if that is original or not). There is a dome light inside the cab, but I am not certain if it works and is missing the cover.
There is rust, but it is solid. There are no holes through the cab from rust, but there are a couple screw holes from where someone had a CB antenna or something similar mounted to it. There could potentially be other small holes that I have not noticed. Please look at the pictures closely. I do not know much about the hardtops for the Willys jeeps.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1200.
“1962 Willys CJ3B Jeep equipped with an early edition Fisher Snowplow. The plow tag reads “CAMDEN, Maine” rather than “Rockland, Maine” . This complete Jeep I used many years ago to plow, has sat neglected in my storage lot as a parts backup for my other CJ3B which recently sold. No parts were removed, but has not been started in 5 years. The body has much rust, the motor ran and drivetrain worked OK. NO BRAKES!! A very hard-to-find Jeep HY-LO hydraulic pump is used to lift the plow. If you are looking for a complete, very stock, high hood CJ3B, bring a trailer and winch, I need it gone. I can deliver, finance, maybe partial trade Willys, Aero, Mercury, Power King, Car Trailer, Hunting Item, or Try Me. Email for details or phone contact.”
Another interesting item in the 1957 Berg’s Truck and Parts Co (Aka the King of Jeeps) Catalog was this “Jeep King” hardtop advertisement, for both half and full-size tops. It looks like it’s a private branding of the Beck (or Kemco) Jeep Cabs, because the door has the split window. As far as I know, that wasn’t available on the Kelly hardtops manufactured by Kelly Manufacturing (which is the company Kemco became).Also, the Kemco had the small window on the half cab, as does the Jeepking half cab.
Has modifications.
