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 .
No updates Monday.
Karson and his girlfriend Mariah are visiting Seattle, so I took them on a short drive in Patterson. Karson wanted to drive, and though he’d never driven a stick, let alone a column shift, he gave it a try. He only stalled it once (though we never got out of first gear).
Now that is a GREAT use for a vintage Willys ! Family getting together for a Fall weekend…..vintage Willys…..an instructional outing for a generation who has no concept of “two pedals”…..clutches…..shift patterns……correctly “launching” ……proper take off after a very steep stop sign……priceless !!
I have unfortunately gotten behind in bringing my 1953 CJ3B safely back to life for street use (was all ready until an unforeseen pesky leaking wheel cylinder)…….my Fall driving lessons for our two daughters and boyfriend and husband has been postponed until next Spring.
Instead……we had a little wine…..beer…..pizza and watched the Packers lose really stupidly……but enjoyed the Brewers dominate on their way to the World Series……great family Sunday.
