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: Here’s the scanned version of this January 1961 military vehicles brochure, It highlights the M-38A1 and M-170.
never seen that military vehicle brochure , I guess it was before the M series forward control military rigs came out ?
That’s a good question. It would have been golden if it included all the M-67Xs!
I find it interesting that this brochure and the one posted yesterday for 1956 only show the represented DJ3A as a “hardtop model”, not the open models and/or the Surrey in 1962???
Steve, I didn’t understand that either. Perhaps Willys was seeing higher sales, especially commercial sales, for that model over the convertible or open topped versions?
Let me just comment on the DJ3A controversy, here in New Jersey, the hardtop DJ3A’s were the only ones ever seen. In 60 years of living in NJ, I had only seen only one soft top model.
I can certainly see the advantage of a hard top enclosure in COLD climates over canvas covering. And while just ‘guessing”, without “advertising” how were people to know they were available? From the side, for most people they look like any other Flat Fender Low Hood until you look for levers and/or underneath the front. That said, I’m glad they weren’t “popular” and “plentiful”, as it makes our DJs more “special” to have survived, and to enjoy the “questioners”… “Where’s the front drive axle?” I would want the 1962 brochure if it showed a Half Top model to represent my 62 DJ, but I can’t find any, was my curiosity.
