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 .
Since you are reading this post, you probably already figured out that we arrived safely tonight. Among our precious cargo was a new three year old stallion. I’d tell you all about the horse, but I can’t seem to write a very coherent sentence. So, a pic will have to do (my sister is to the left and petting the horse is my niece, Holly.
Here is my very happy wife welcoming me.
that looks like a high dollar quarter horse to me!
Very impressive ! Good for you.
Glad you had a safe trip..
Dave: Yes, good eye. My niece is one of the top ten young reiners in the nation. She’s been riding since the day she was put onto a hobby horse. If this horse matures as expected it might just pay for her college and more. She’s already being looked at (but can’t be talked to, since she’s only 15) by college scouts.
Dave is that back East or out by you? We have a show here runs all summer called H.I.T.S horses in the sun…. Glad to see all is well.

Larry,
My sister (Kim) and niece (Holly) were at the Oklahoma Futurity (http://nrha1.com). They weren’t really shopping for a new horse, but someone offered they a deal they couldn’t refuse on Holly’s horse, so they had an opportunity to find a young horse that could grow more with Holly. She tried out a number of them at the show, but none felt right. Then, several people highly recommended the 3 year old in Sanger, Texas. After watching some video, they bought it. Poor Kim had to negotiate some pretty icy roads to retrieve the horse on thursday, then she turned around and picked me up at the airport and off we went back to Washington. He’s a stud and his official name (?) (I don’t really understand the names myself) is ARC King Snapper.
Not being a cowboy, I had to Google what a Reiner was.
Dave,
King Snapper looks good and all that but if your niece wants something a little different the Goddess and I can send her a young bull moose that’s been wandering around the neighborhood. You could call it a Polar Pony and say the rack on the moose’s head is for luggage. Shoot, a moose is better than four wheel drive and it’s earth friendly and all that crap. Give us the word and we’ll have a mail order moose on it’s way. I just hope the postal folks hand cancel it.
Should be named CJ5
Paul: As usual, your generosity knows no bounds. Is there enough surface on the moose to afix all the necessary stamps? Better yet, just send down a set of fake moose antlers. We’ll glue that polar plastic to the horse’s head and call the Polar Express.
Dan: Less than zero chance of that 🙂
