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. This section used to be split into jeeps, parts and other categories, but recent changes to eBay will require this information to be recoded.
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 .
Joe just picked up this rare Topeka Highway Mower last month. Joe would love to find a soft door setup like is shown on this Topeka.
Topeka like these were assembled with jeep parts. I’ve updated the Topeka Mower info.
What;s the motor in that? Also, I’d think it’d be easy enough to make a soft cab for this thing, that and a heater would be nice. Looks in great shape too
The motor is a flat head 4 cylinder Continental “Red Seal” motor. I am working on a canvas style soft top with doors and a electric style heater is in the works as well.

Joe,
I would like to add you to my Topeka Hiway Mower Owner list. Please contact me at 636-458-4402
Joe I have one very similar to yours in WI as well. Just finished frame off mechanical restoration and up graded front breaks to 11″ self adj. Has a soft top made by Amish family with NAPA heater. Wanted to squeeze an auto transmission into it ( all I do with it is plow snow ) but would have had to lengthen frame and did not want to do that.
Tom,
Do you have any pictures of it?
Thanks,
Joe
Tom,
If you’d like to share pics of the mower, I’d be happy to feature it. You can email them to d@ewillys.com.

I am thinking of selling the Topeka. It is just sitting, if anyone is interested let me know.
Thanks,
Joe
Thanks Joe,
I’ll update the post and let folks know.

Where you located and what is your price?
Wisconsin and 2,000
I would do 1000 for the Topeka if anyone is interested…
How much does a Topeka hiway tractor like that weigh
How much does a Topeka hiway tractor like that weigh? Or any idea of the gear ratios in the axles?
Rear axle ratios in mine are 5.03. I have never weighed it but they are heavier than they appear
Marty are you still doing a owners list? I just picked up most of one.
Congrats Dave! Does it run?
Motor is out, supposedly rebuilt many years ago. Not going to hold by breath on that, many times not true. Missing some of the sheet metal, was sent to a guy to sandblast and paint but he died so not sure if it’s still available. Needs lots of help. May get put in a corner and put on the waiting list, that should put it about 20 years down the road.
