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 $300.
Looks solid in the pics.
“I have for sale a vintage jeep Willys bed extension box. This box is in great condition for its age! The tailgate is on it backwards, but can be switched around. Dimensions of this box are: 39 inches wide, 16 inches deep, 28 inches long! Brackets are included for attaching to a Willys Jeep. This is still usable as it’s original intended purpose, or could be repurposed into 1 million different things! ”
I want it.. We actually threw one of these in a scrap mental bin thinking it wasn’t correct/ home made.. yeah, been kicking myself ever since. The rule I learned was never toss anything (from a vehicle) until you’ve done some research.
There’s just so much to learn!
We have one of these but it is missing the two supports. Anyone have an extra set or dimensions for making them? Thanks Don
Hi Don,
Will this info help?

It doesnt look too intimidating to make the lower supports. If I was going to do them I would put some pressure under the bed extender at the back edge with a jack first and then measure the required length of the supports. That way the added supports would be the first and primary load support rather than hanging the load on the tailgate body edges, which were just sheetmetal and not designed to support that kind of load. Good luck.
Great info guys! Looks like ours is the Newgren model with two angle iron supports. Going to use your suggestions and make our own. Thanks!
