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 on eBay. Thanks to Jerry for reminding me that it’s an Oglesby and not an Al-Toy.
It looks in pretty good shape.
“THIS RARE ALLTOY WILLY’S JEEP IS 10.5″ LONG AND 5″ WIDE AND 6″ TALL TO THE TOP OF THE WINDSHIELD. IT HAS SOLID RUBBER TIRES AND IS IN OVERALL VERY GOOD CONDITION. THERE IS ONE MISSING BRASS HINGE PIN/RIVET ON THE PASSANGER SIDE OF THE HOOD BUT IS OTHERWISE COMPLETE.”
Actually this is an Oglesby Jeep made in Peru Indiana. Very similar to an Al-Toy but has the invasion star cast into, the hood, a cast in place engine and Willys cast into the hub caps. These are very collectible and often accompanied with a trailer complete with a drop down tailgate and matching hub caps.
Gerald,
I should have looked at this more carefully. I own an Oglesby, lol. I’ll correct. Thanks!

This didn’t sell at $69.99, so the seller UPPED the price to $99.99 with the “Make Offer” feature:
