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 .
Robin found a great short clip of the Willys Wagon that appears in the movie “It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World“. I remember watching this movie as a kid, because it was one of my favorites. It’s a bunch of silliness.
My Dad had a wagon just like that at about the same time. I can remember driving home from camping as a kid, lying on a blanket on the floor and listening to the engine and drive train as I dozed. They overdubbed the sound of some one-lunger motor in the clip but you can still hear the characteristic Jeep engine and gear sound at times. Kinda hurts to see them wreck it.
Looks like it survived the accident pretty well. A very safe vehicle, all survived intact.
OMG…that is hilarious….
Thanks for posting…
I saw the last part of it a couple weeks ago but came in after the Jeep. Almost turned ti off for that reason. I’ve seen it about 5 times since the late 60’s.
Interesting how they re hinged the rear window so it was off the ground for the clip.
I hate when my friend see me cry at the sad part… :_(

It was a shame to see them wreck that good old Jeep. Terry Thomas, the split toothed driver and Uncle Milty, Milton Berle were great in slapstick comedy.
